Qa Engineer

About Kojo

It's time to build. Whether it's creating more housing, upgrading our infrastructure, or adapting to climate change, one thing is clear: the construction industry is at the center of solving our biggest problems. We’re making buildings cheaper and easier to build by transforming the way commercial construction companies buy their materials. Join us.

Founded in 2018, Kojo is now one of the fastest-growing construction technology companies in the world. Construction accounts for $10 trillion in global spend annually and we can’t live without its output - our roads, schools, hospitals, and offices. Despite this, there’s been very little innovation over the past 70 years in how materials - which constitute up to 40% of project costs - are bought and sold. This is our opportunity.

We’re hiring a QA Engineer to help Kojo’s engineering teams build quality into every stage of the lifecycle process. This position will play a hands-on role in testing, test planning, establishing best QA practices, bug tracking and reporting, and serve as the gatekeeper of quality for new products.

About the Role

This role will support our Integrations team where you will work cross-functionally to establish best practices and have the opportunity to make a huge impression on the customer experience.

This role will include:

• Developing and implementing manual and automated testing procedures for our software products, ensuring that bugs are identified and corrected before they get to the customer.

• Embracing a deep understanding of product specifications and customer requirements, and be the customer's voice in the room.

• Participating in the triaging of customer bug reports and feature requests

• Nurturing respectful and influential working relationships with cross-functional teams members in order to effectively prioritize and address issues

• Participating in all phases of product development, from design to deployment, ensuring our product meets quality standards.

• Ensuring Kojo’s integration with 3rd party ERP and project management systems is flawless and the best user experience it can possibly be. Verifying data accuracy and consistency of data across systems.
