Job Description
Are you fresh out of college with a CS or STEM degree and an itch to break things (constructively, of course)? Or maybe you’ve got a test certification and a bit of hands-on QA experience already? Either way, if you're ready to roll up your sleeves and dive into software testing, we’d love to hear from you!
We’re looking for an Associate Software Test Engineer who’s eager to grow, hungry to learn, and excited to be part of a collaborative, agile team. If you're the kind of person who can sniff out a bug from a mile away and finds joy in uncovering what breaks (and why), you’ll fit right in. We’re after someone with a curious mind, an eye for detail, and an uncanny knack for breaking things in just the right way.
This is a remote role focused on the Victoria, BC region—where we have a handful of awesome teammates you might collaborate with from time to time. Most of our engineers are based in Seattle, with a few others spread across North America. You’ll feel connected, supported, and part of something bigger.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Following detailed test plans and test cases to verify product features and functionality.
Reading and reviewing user stories to understand expected behavior and help identify edge cases.
Collaborating with developers, product owners, and other testers to ensure stories are testable and well-defined.
Helping flesh out test cases for new or evolving features, with opportunities to contribute your own.
Running manual and automated tests on our VPN client/server applications across a variety of environments—virtual and physical, wired and wireless.
Testing across multiple platforms: Windows, Android, MacOS, and iOS, often within VMWare and Azure cloud environments.
Reporting issues, verifying fixes, and being the voice of quality.
Spotting opportunities for automation and jumping on them.
Creating, improving, or tweaking internal test tools that make everyone’s life easier.
What You Bring to the Team:
A degree in Computer Science or another STEM field.
Internship or 1 year of hands-on software testing experience (bonus if it involved client/server or mobile testing!).
Familiarity with Azure cloud environments (and a willingness to learn more).
Solid networking know-how and troubleshooting chops (Windows or Linux).
Exposure to tools like Wireshark or NetMon.
Some experience or curiosity about test automation (Python, Selenium, C#? Even better).
An interest in setting up test environments using Docker and Kubernetes.
Self-motivated, with the ability to work both independently and as a collaborative team member.
Strong analytical skills and excellent organizational habits—you like things tidy, trackable, and clear.
Quick learner with an eye for detail and a drive to make things better.
A communicator, collaborator, and all-around quality advocate.
A natural instinct to break things—and break them well.
Bonus Points For…
Performance testing experience.
Familiarity with MDMs (Mobile Device Management).
Knowledge or experience with AI tools—especially in the context of development, testing, or boosting personal/team efficiency.
Being bilingual—Japanese, French, Italian, or German are all great!
Why Join Us?
We’re big believers in mentorship, growth, and building a strong QA foundation. You’ll learn from experienced pros while making a real impact. You'll be part of a supportive, fun-loving team that works hard, shares knowledge, and builds quality software—together, wherever we are.
The base pay range for this position is from CAD $61,000 – CAD$68,000 annually; the base pay offered is determined by the market location and may vary depending on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and internal equity.
