Company mission
To propel every doer of good to their peak impact.
Role
Who you are
- You've worked with ActionKit as a developer or campaigner. If you haven't worked with ActionKit then you've either worked with similar tools or participated in one of our client's advocacy campaigns
- You have a track record of finding needles in haystacks through creativity, intuition, patience, and sometimes a little luck. We ship a lot. Occasionally something should get a polish or a second pass before clients see it. We want to find those rare cases without searching the entire haystack
- You've learned complicated new tools or systems through experimentation and self-directed research. We lean on judgement and context over process and checklists, getting the full picture takes some triangulation
- You've proposed changes to a feature, tool, or product that went on to be implemented. You’ll work directly with our engineers throughout the QA process. Our engineers are capable, smart, and do great work. And when something needs attention, it's your feedback they work from
- You know SQL and have used some combination of Python, Django, and REST APIs. If you haven't directly worked with these, you've seen these up close and have probably used something similar
- You can see problems from diverse perspectives, including that of campaigners, developers, and members of the public. You’ve probably have experience as a technical writer, developer advocate, software developer, product manager, database manager, or similar
What the job involves
- The ActionKit team needs you to help our clients win fights to make the world a better place
- Our small team is looking for a remote US-based Lead QA Engineer to own product quality, helping us consistently build and ship the tools that our clients need to change the world
- Does a new feature do what it says on the tin? Does it do justice to the original request? Is the UI intuitive and responsive? What about corner cases and mischievous users? These are a few of the questions you’ll regularly wrestle with
- Between testing efforts, you have room for your own contributions
- Maybe that's automating QA tasks, improving documentation, or fixing an irksome bug yourself. The team is flexible and informal. There's room for you to find your niche
Application process
- We will be accepting applications for the role until 10/20/2024
