Manual QA Engineer
About InvestEngine
We’re a London-based fintech on a mission to make ETF investing simple and accessible. Over 100,000 clients have trusted us with over £1.5 billion in assets — and we’re just getting started. We’ve been featured by Forbes, MoneyWeek, and Finder, and we’re growing fast with big ambitions.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Manual QA Engineer to join our high-velocity Growth team. This team owns functionality that drives user acquisition and marketing efficiency, so quality and speed go hand in hand. You’ll test a wide range of features — from landing pages and signup flows to backend-driven content and analytics integrations — across web and mobile platforms.
You’ll work closely with engineers, marketers, and product managers, and you’ll have real ownership in building high-quality, resilient features. This role is ideal for someone who’s proactive, detail-oriented, and ready to grow in a dynamic, cross-functional environment.
What You’ll Do
Manual testing of frontend and backend features on desktop and mobile web
Review marketing and product updates for functional correctness and layout issues
Perform basic API testing using Postman
Write and run simple SQL queries to validate data
Use proxy tools (like Charles) for deeper request/response validation
Occasionally support regression testing in mobile apps
Review HTML/CSS for consistency and correctness
Collaborate with developers and marketers to clarify requirements
Proactively identify gaps, propose improvements, and help evolve QA processes
What We’re Looking For
2+ years of manual QA experience, focused on web applications
Hands-on experience testing APIs and working with Postman
Solid knowledge of test design techniques
Technical literacy: HTML/CSS, client-server architecture, and basic debugging
Ability to write SQL queries to validate backend logic
Confident using proxy tools like Charles or Fiddler
Strong critical thinking and analytical skills — not just following test scripts
Self-driven, organized, and comfortable working without micromanagement
Clear communicator who collaborates well with tech and non-tech teams
English (B2 level or higher)
Native speaker of Russia
Nice to Have
Experience testing mobile apps (Android/iOS)
Interest in building or improving QA workflows and processes
Familiarity with automation tools or AI-assisted testing (not required, but a plus)
Previous experience in product-first companies or marketing-driven environments
How We Work
We’re a lean, fast-moving team that values clarity, ownership, and continuous improvement. You’ll be more than just a ticket-tester — you’ll help shape how we build, ship, and maintain quality across the product.
We expect initiative, not just execution. At the same time, you’ll have support from experienced QA leads and an open, collaborative culture that encourages experimentation and learning.
