About Veridox
Veridox is an AI-driven fraud detection platform purpose-built for insurers. We combine document analysis with contextual intelligence to output detailed risk analysis. We have a high focus on trust, accuracy, and explainability. As part of our growing team, you’ll play a key role in ensuring our product does exactly what we say it does.
The Role
We are looking for a smart, modern Software Tester who knows that the future of QA isn't just about writing code from scratch. It's about leveraging the right tools to move fast.
We don't need a heavy framework architect. We need a rigorous tester who understands software logic and can effectively leverage AI (Gemini, Copilot, Claude, etc.) to generate test cases, write automated scripts, and analyse data. You will be the human intelligence guiding the AI tools, ensuring that our platform is robust, bug-free, and user-friendly.
You are the right fit if:
* You are a tester at heart: you love breaking things and finding edge cases.
* You are \"AI-native\" in your workflow: you don't write boilerplate code; you prompt AI to write it for you, then you review and refine it.
* You believe automation is essential, but you aren't afraid to jump in and manually test a complex workflow to understand the user experience.
Must Haves (The Core Requirements)
* QA Mindset & Methodologies: Proven experience as a Software Tester. You know how to write a test plan, define acceptance criteria, and what constitutes a \"blocking\" bug.
* AI Literacy (Prompt Engineering): You are comfortable using tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or GitHub Copilot to generate test scenarios, create data sets, and write basic automation scripts. You know how to \"debug\" a bad AI prompt.
* Automation Familiarity (Playwright): You don't need to build a framework from scratch, but you must be able to use Playwright. You should be comfortable recording tests (Codegen), reading the resulting TypeScript/JavaScript, and using AI to tweak it.
* API Testing: You understand how APIs work (REST/GraphQL). You can use Postman, Insomnia, or AI tools to check that the data coming back looks correct (status codes, JSON structure).
* The \"Hybrid\" Approach: You are happy to mix automated checks with manual exploratory testing. You understand that automated tests check for regressions, but humans check for quality.
Nice to Haves
* Database Basics: Ability to ask an AI to write a SQL query to check data in the database, and the confidence to run it.
* Experience with Low-Code/No-Code Tools: Familiarity with tools that abstract the coding layer (e.g., ZeroStep, Ghost Inspector, or similar).
* CI/CD Awareness: You don't need to build the pipeline, but you should know where to look in GitHub/GitLab when a test fails during a build.
* Security Curiosity: You know the basics of web security (e.g., \"I probably shouldn't be able to see this user's data\") and know to flag it.
What You’ll Be Doing
* AI-Assisted Automation: Instead of spending days writing code, you will use AI tools to generate Playwright scripts for our regression suite and maintain them when features change.
* Exploratory Testing: You will manually test new features with a critical eye, looking for UX quirks, logic gaps, and edge cases that scripts can't catch.
* Test Data Generation: Using LLMs to create realistic, complex datasets (e.g., fraudulent insurance claims) to rigorously test our fraud detection logic.
* Release Confidence: You will own the \"Green Light.\" You will run the smoke tests (manual or automated) and tell the team when we are safe to deploy.
* Bug Triage: Investigating reported issues, reproducing them, and providing developers with clear steps to fix them (often using AI to help write the bug report).
Why Join Us?
This is not a \"ticket-bashing\" role. You are joining a young, high-tech company where you will have the freedom to define how modern QA should be done. If you believe that a smart tester with AI superpowers can outperform a traditional QA team, we want to talk to you.
