QA Engineer (Automation)

Apply

Quanloop is building and running a security‑sensitive investment platform. We are hiring QA Engineers (Automation) in Budapest to build and maintain automated testing across both APIs and UI, improving release confidence and reducing regression risk.

This is an office‑first role based in Budapest.

Role snapshot

  • Working model: Office‑first (on‑site).
  • Hiring basis: Local hiring for the Budapest office location.
  • Language: English‑first working language.
  • Reporting line: You report to the Head of Engineering and/or the CTO.

What you’ll be responsible for

  • Build and maintain automated tests across API and UI layers for key workflows.
  • Design automation coverage that is practical and maintainable, not just “more tests”.
  • Keep automated checks reliable and readable so teams can trust results over time.
  • Partner with engineers to improve testability and reduce avoidable regressions.
  • Work with Manual QA, Product Owner and Tech Leads to align automation with real release risks.
  • Support release readiness through clear quality signals and a quality gate for critical issues.
  • Document the testing approach and keep it usable for the wider team.

What success looks like in the first 3–6 months

  • Automated checks cover the right workflows and are stable enough to be used consistently.
  • Regression risk reduces and release validation becomes more predictable.
  • Engineering teams treat automation as a shared quality system, not a side activity.

What we’re looking for

  • Commercial experience building automated tests (API and UI) for production software.
  • Comfortable writing automation code and maintaining test suites over time.
  • Practical judgement: able to prioritise what to automate and what to leave manual.
  • Comfortable working with code review and shared standards.
  • Clear written and spoken communication in English.
  • Comfortable working on site with a team.

Growth opportunity

As the Budapest QA function grows, some hires may take on a QA leadership scope across automation standards and release readiness.
