Senior qa engineer (ote $50,000/year usd), sparkrock

Are you a senior QA engineer who writes the test automation that keeps enterprise ERP software reliable?

At Sparkrock, we help social benefit organizations, such as nonprofits, school boards, and government agencies, reach their full potential through technology. Every day, over 150,000 people use our ERP and product platforms to work more efficiently, freeing up time and resources to focus on the good they want to achieve. When our software works reliably, those people spend their time on their mission instead of on workarounds.

We are looking for a Senior QA Engineer to strengthen how we test our ERP products. You will own quality from business requirements to release: planning test cycles, designing and writing test cases, building and maintaining automated tests and frameworks, and tracking defects to resolution. You will work closely with development, product management, and operations.

Reporting to the Director of Platform Development, you will shape how QA works across our products and be measured on what you deliver: complete, relevant test coverage, clear test cases, and automated tests that run reliably and are easy to maintain.

If you enjoy complex enterprise systems and keep improving your work through metrics and new tools, we would love to hear from you.

Responsibilities

• Analyse business requirements to understand the testing needs and keep testing aligned with business goals.
• Design test cases and strategies that cover all functionality and scenarios.
• Plan test cycles and schedule them around development phases and project timelines.
• Write clear, concise test cases and scripts.
• Run tests manually and with automation to find issues and bugs.
• Develop and maintain automated test scripts and frameworks to make testing more efficient.
• Report test results, give a clear view of software quality, and recommend improvements.
• Track defects from identification to resolution and make sure they are fixed on time.
• Maintain the QA testing environment and tools that keep testing efficient.

Requirements

• 5 years or more of experience in QA automation.
• Hands-on experience writing and maintaining automated test code and frameworks.
• Experience testing ERP or other enterprise SaaS products in production.
• Experience turning business requirements into test plans and test cases.
• Experience managing defects from identification to resolution.
• Experience working in Agile teams.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Software Engineering, or a related field, and an ISTQB, CSTE, or similar testing certification.
• Fluent, professional English, spoken and written.

Nice to have

• Experience with Microsoft Business Central is a huge advantage.
• Experience with writing AL-based tests for Microsoft Business Central is an even greater advantage.
• Daily use of AI coding tools such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or Claude Code.
