* Create templates, SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures),and test scripts/check lists for daily testing.
* Train internal team members ( and eventually the VA) on using the new process and tools effectively.
* Provide recommendations for ongoing QA best practices and scalable improvements.
Requirements:
* Proven experience in QA/UAT for SaaS or digital products.
* Strong understanding of testing methodologies, particularly for lean/agile teams.
* Hands-on experience setting up QA tools (e.g. TestRail, Xray, Zephyr, Postman, Cypress, BrowserStack, etc.).
* Ability to translate technical processes into accessible, documented procedures.
* Experience working with or delegating to non-technical or offshore VA teams.
* Self-starter with excellent communication and documentation skills.
Nice to Have:
* Experience with no-code/low-code platforms or tools.
* Familiarity with VA onboarding and SOP creation.
* Knowledge of product-led growth and iterative product testing cycles.
Deliverables:
* Defined QA/UAT process flow.
* Fully configured testing tool suite with documentation.
* SOPs and daily testing checklist/template for VA use.
* One-time training session or video walkthrough for internal onboarding.
