Quality Analyst

Summary

Join Equals Money, a company focused on making money management easy and cost-effective for customers, as a Quality Engineer. This role requires a product-led QA professional comfortable with both automation and exploratory testing. You will champion quality within a cross-functional squad, build and maintain automated regression suites using Cypress, and collaborate with developers on testability and risk assessment. The ideal candidate will have 2+ years of QA experience in agile, product-led tech teams and hands-on experience with Cypress or similar frameworks.

Requirements

• Thrive in dynamic, collaborative environments

• Understand web/mobile architecture and common test techniques
• Are excited by the possibilities of AI tools and low-code platforms to augment testing
• Enjoy exploratory testing, risk analysis, and seeing the bigger picture

Responsibilities

• Champion quality within a cross-functional squad—using context-driven, exploratory testing to inform where and how you test, and ensuring the most valuable risks are addressed
• Use and help assess emerging low-code and AI-powered test tools to speed up repetitive tasks, enhance coverage, and support smarter debugging
• Take the lead on building and maintaining automated regression suites using Cypress, driving coverage for critical user journeys and enabling faster feedback loops
• Balance automation with intelligent exploratory testing: knowing when it’s better to think critically than code rigidly
• Design flexible test charters, coverage outlines, and lightweight documentation that support deep exploration without slowing delivery
• Collaborate with developers on testability, quality signals, and risk assessment—influencing story shaping and delivery planning
• Contribute to pipeline integration of test suites and improve CI test reliability and performance
• Work with other QAs and engineers to evolve our quality strategy—whether that’s how we tackle flaky tests, scale automation, or refine our exploratory approaches
• Offer support and informal mentorship to junior testers, especially around automation best practices, critical thinking, and risk-based approaches
