Scrive

QA engineer (auto) for SaaS web applications

In short

Scrive, a Stockholm-headquartered SaaS company, is hiring a QA Engineer on a 1-year fixed-term contract to drive its transition to automation-first testing while ensuring the quality of its web applications. The role blends automated testing with JavaScript/TypeScript and Playwright with manual regression and exploratory testing, close collaboration with developers and product managers, and bug investigation and documentation in Jira. It requires 3-5 years of SaaS web application testing experience, strong debugging skills, and fluent English; experience with Python/pytest API testing and performance/security testing tools is a plus. The role is fully remote.

Responsibilities

•Identify, log, and troubleshoot issues – investigate bugs using logs, browser dev tools, and test outputs, documenting clear steps to reproduce in Jira and contributing to shared knowledge bases.
Requirements

•Proven track record in balancing manual and automated testing, with a strong readiness to champion an automation-first mindset.
•Strong debugging and analytical skills, with a proactive approach to exploratory testing and finding the root cause of issues.
•Fluent English communication skills, allowing you to clearly convey test results, document findings, and provide structured updates to your team.
Nice to have
•Experience with API and backend service testing using Python and pytest, expanding coverage beyond web UI applications.
•Familiarity with performance or security testing tools to help identify bottlenecks and vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle.
•Experience in a fast-paced, high-growth working environment.
What we offer
•A highly supportive team culture featuring daily developer syncs, weekly QA knowledge-sharing sessions, and annual physical team meetups somewhere within Europe.
•Personal development: individual learning budget and the opportunity to attend annual conferences and meetups.
•Health & flexibility: flexible public holidays and a weekly wellness hour to support a great work-life balance.
