Quality Assurance Engineer, Manila Office
The Quality Assurance Engineer is responsible for performing daily analysis and execution of test efforts, and working collaboratively with team members across disciplines. Test efforts may be performed across a variety of project types including websites, mobile applications, and immersive experiences. Typically a QA Engineer at Code and Theory can expect to work in collaboration with and in parallel to Development/Production teams throughout the lifecycle of a project, leading the testing efforts, and providing proactive risk assessment.
