Shorthand is a growing company that provides a digital publishing platform to many of the world’s best-known publishers, brands, not-for-profits, and universities. With customers on every continent (except Antarctica!), there’s never been a more exciting time to join Shorthand. Our company has the rare distinction in this era of money-burning startups of being both investor-backed and comfortably profitable.

We tend to do things a little differently at Shorthand. For one thing, we’re a small team that is distributed around the world. We’ll happily take applications from anywhere on the planet but with a few conditions: you must be fluent in English (both written and spoken) and you can be online during Eastern Australian working hours (preferably with a cross-over of at least 3-5 hours per day) to collaborate with the team.

- Become an active part of the QA team within Shorthand.
- Become an expert in the use of Shorthand.
- Work with the Senior QA Engineer to help grow (and identify areas for additional growth for) all testing-related activities, in addition to identifying any relevant process-related improvements (e.g., through the creation of new references or utilising specific tools).
- Analyse new features for risks, in order to help minimise the number of new bugs.
- Perform functional, integration, regression, post-deployment verification testing.
- Perform cross-browser and cross-device testing.
- Clearly report issues (bugs and UI/UX problems) found in our products, including steps to reproduce those issues.
- Present on testing-related subjects at All Hands and other meetings.
- Assist with creating and updating test documentation and testing-related references that can be followed by you and other members of the team.
- Communicate with the customer support team and customers to suggest temporary solutions to issues.
Qualifications:
- A minimum of 3 years of experience in a manual QA Engineer role or similar.
- General experience in configuring and using testing-related tools.
- Experience with GitHub Issues is desirable.
- A relevant university qualification is a bonus.
- Experience with remote work.
