Quality Assurance and Software Tester

Like Xensam's own ambitions, the work as Quality Assurance and Software Tester goes far beyond just solving a problem as quickly and easily as possible. Since Xensam is a young company, the person responsible for QA and software testing needs to have the hands-on desire to solve the most difficult problems and improve all parts of Xensam's product portfolio.
Your job will not only be to solve today's problems related to software testing and QA, but also to build the processes that will become Xensam's pillar of QA during the company's ongoing expansion journey. You will have a chance to learn new technologies, impact the methologies and processes of QA/development and grow both personally and professionally.
Xensam is, and will always be, an innovation company. We employ people with a broad set of technical skills that are ready to take on some of the technology's greatest challenges. But above all, we employ you as a human being. We believe it is extremely important to build a team with the right people, over the right skills. Because if you have the right people with the right conditions, they will learn what they need to know.
Our core values ​​drive us, and therefore we want you, as a potential future teammate, to consider the following four quotes and how they fit with you:


1. “It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.” – Albert Einstein
2. "Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn't work hard." – Tim Notke
3. “It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.” – Harry S Truman
4. “Equality implies individuality.” – Trey Anastasio
