As a QA Tester, you will execute functional and exploratory tests, log issues in Jira, collaborate with teams, and ensure software quality.
About Us
PolicyFly is modernizing the way specialty insurance works. Our platform simplifies complex, manual workflows (e.g. quoting, issuing, and managing policies) by connecting underwriters, brokers, and carriers with automation and clean, intuitive design. We’re powering the future of insurance infrastructure, one line of business at a time.
Job Description
We’re looking for a sharp, detail-driven QA Tester to help us ensure the quality and reliability of the PolicyFly platform. This is a remote role ideal for someone who enjoys finding bugs, validating complex workflows, and helping a fast-growing team ship clean, confident releases.
You’ll work closely with our product and engineering teams to test new features, validate updates, and support issue tracking in Jira — all while getting exposed to the inner workings of a modern insurance platform. If you have an eye for detail, love breaking things (in a good way), and thrive in a remote-first, collaborative team, we’d love to hear from you.
What You'll Do
- Execute functional, regression, and exploratory tests on web-based insurance software
- Log, track, and verify bugs using Jira
- Help reproduce and isolate edge-case issues across a variety of use cases
- Review requirements and user stories to identify test gaps
- Collaborate with engineering and product teams to validate fixes and provide feedback
- Support release readiness through hands-on QA sessions
Required
- Experience with manual QA testing for software applications (e.g. are curious to reproduce, find and even document bugs found in software applications)
- Comfort using Jira for test case management and issue tracking
- Strong attention to detail and methodical testing approach
- Competence with understanding mathematical formulas (i.e. pricing an insurance policy)
- General experience and comfort with Excel
- English fluency
- Clear written and verbal communication (we’re remote!)
- A proactive, self-starter mindset with the ability to work independently
Nice to Have
- Experience in the insurance industry (underwriting, quoting, or policy admin exposure is a big plus)
- Familiarity with test planning tools or QA frameworks
- Basic understanding of APIs or browser-based debugging tools
- Experience in remote team environments
Position Details
- Type: Full-time (after paid part-time trial period)
- Location: Remote (Within +/- 3 hours of ET time zone preferred for overlap)
- Compensation: Based on experience
