About Pelcro

Pelcro is a subscription and paywall infrastructure platform that powers newspapers and publishers. We help clients migrate from legacy circulation systems to a modern reliable platform that handles everything from recurring billing and payment processing to USPS postal fulfillment and access control.

Were a small high-impact team that values initiative ownership and getting things right.

The Role

We need a senior hands-on QA leader who will own quality across the entire platform. That means setting the standards establishing key metrics and holding yourself and the team accountable to all of it. Youll lead a team of 2 QA engineers and partner closely with engineering product and client-facing teams.

If youve built a QA function before or restructured one that was struggling this is your kind of challenge.

What Youll Own

The entire QA function: vision process playbooks metrics and execution.

Test strategy across the full SDLC from requirements through deployment not as a gatekeeper at the end.

QA team leadership: mentoring and assessing performance of your team.

Identifying gaps in error reporting logging and observability and building a roadmap to steadily improve coverage and signal quality.

Key QA metrics (defect escape rate test coverage regression pass rates cycle time) defining them tracking them and using them to drive continuous improvement.

Test plans test cases and regression suites in TestRail.

Automated testing strategy and implementation.

Must-Haves

Demonstrable experience leading a team of QA engineers.

Experience with AI tools (Claude Code preferred).

Great attention to detail.

UI/UX sensibility ability to spot inconsistencies broken flows and poor user experience beyond just does it work.

Experience with automated testing frameworks (e.g. Cypress Playwright or Selenium).

Solid understanding of REST APIs and ability to test backend services independently (Postman cURL etc.).

Experience testing payment/billing flows (Stripe strongly preferred).

Comfortable working with MySQL to validate data integrity and investigate issues.

Experience writing and maintaining test plans test cases and regression suites in TestRail.

Strong written communication bug reports that engineers can act on without back-and-forth.

Ability to identify gaps in error reporting logging and observability and build a roadmap to steadily improve coverage and signal quality across the platform.

Ability to define implement and own key QA metrics (defect escape rate test coverage regression pass rates cycle time etc.) and use them to drive continuous improvement.

Experience embedding QA into the full SDLC not a gatekeeper at the end but a partner from requirements through deployment.

Very Nice to Have

Client-facing experience able to join calls reproduce reported issues and communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders.

Experience with OpenSearch Bugsnag and Sentry for log analysis and error triage.

Experience with subscription/SaaS platforms or recurring billing logic.

Familiarity with PHP and/or codebases (enough to read code and pinpoint where things break).

Experience with CI/CD pipelines and integrating automated tests into deployment workflows (GitHub Actions etc.).

Familiarity with Asana for defect tracking and sprint workflows integrated with TestRail for test management.

Performance testing experience (load testing APIs identifying bottlenecks).

Experience running QA retrospectives and blameless post-mortems to turn production incidents into process improvements.

Familiarity with SOC 2 or other compliance frameworks and how QA documentation supports audit readiness.
