We are a fast-growing Web3 startup building products and infrastructure for the future of the internet finance. Our mission is to deliver secure, scalable, and user-friendly experiences that empower communities around the world.

We’re looking for a Senior/Lead QA Analyst to own our QA strategy, scale automation, and ensure that our products consistently meet the highest standards of quality.

Senior/Lead QA Analyst (Web 3): Role Overview

As a Senior/Lead QA Analyst, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the quality, reliability, and security of our decentralized applications. You’ll define and execute our QA strategy across Web3 systems, from smart contracts integrations to front-end dApps, while scaling automation frameworks and embedding testing into our CI/CD pipelines. This role is both hands-on and strategic: you’ll lead test planning and automation efforts, establish quality benchmarks, and mentor team members, ensuring that every release meets the highest standards of usability and trust.

Key responsibilities:

  • Define and drive the overall QA strategy, including automation coverage, quality metrics, and release readiness criteria
  • Design, implement, and maintain automated test frameworks (web, mobile, APIs, and smart contracts integration)
  • Integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions etc.) to support continuous delivery
  • Lead test planning, execution, and reporting for major releases, including functional, regression, integration, performance, and security testing
  • Collaborate with product managers and engineers to define acceptance criteria and ensure testability of requirements
  • Build tools and processes for cross-browser, cross-device, and wallet integration testing
  • Establish and enforce QA best practices across teams
  • Mentor other QA engineers/analysts, providing guidance on automation, bug triage, and process improvements
  • Work closely with DevOps to strengthen release pipelines and quality gates

Required skills:

  • 5+ years of experience in QA/software testing (including 2+ years in the Web3 space), with at least 2+ years in a senior or lead capacity
  • Proven track record of building and scaling test automation frameworks (Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, Puppeteer, etc.)
  • Strong experience with CI/CD integration for automated testing pipelines
  • Familiarity with Web3 technologies: smart contracts, wallets (MetaMask, WalletConnect, hardware wallets), blockchain transactions, gas estimations
  • Experience testing APIs, microservices, and distributed systems
  • Proficiency with bug tracking and test management tools (Jira, Linear, TestRail, etc.)
  • Strong knowledge of QA methodologies, SDLC, and Agile practices
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills, with experience in cross-functional collaboration

Nice-to-have:

  • Solid understanding of smart contract development frameworks (Hardhat, Foundry)
  • Background in security and performance testing for blockchain and dApps
  • Familiarity with DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, or L2 scaling solutions
  • Programming experience in JavaScript, TypeScript, or Python (for building automation tools/tests)
  • Prior experience scaling QA in a startup or high-growth environment

Personality traits:

  • Attention to detail
  • Communication skills
  • Culture fit

Values & attributes we're looking for:

  • Deep alignment with Web3 principles and decentralized technology
  • Strong problem-solving abilities with a proactive, ownership-driven mindset
  • Comfortable working in a remote-friendly, fast-paced, iterative environment
  • Proven ability to balance pragmatic solutions with innovation
  • Adaptability and willingness to dive into new challenges and unfamiliar technologies
  • The time overlap for the team is 8 AM - 12 PM EST (2 PM - 6 PM CET) and we expect you to be available for meetings in that time window.

What we offer:

  • Competitive compensation
  • A leadership role with ownership of QA strategy and automation direction
  • Remote-first, flexible, and global work environment
  • A chance to build products at the cutting edge of Web3
  • Growth opportunities in one of the fastest-evolving industries
  • Opportunity to shape the future of decentralized finance and public goods funding
  • Collaborative team culture focused on innovation
  • Competitive compensation package
  • Continuous learning and development opportunities

We believe in building technology that empowers users while maintaining the highest standards of security and reliability. If you share our vision for a more decentralized future and have the technical skills to help build it, we'd love to hear from you.
