As part of a top-10 private lender processing billions in loan volume, backed by leading asset managers and funds, we are growing fast, and product quality is central to how we build and operate.\nAs a Senior Product QA, you will own quality across the product lifecycle, going beyond traditional test execution to ensure our platform works the way users expect. You will shape requirements, ask the right questions to strengthen acceptance criteria, and use data and user insights to decide what to test and where risk lives. You will also validate AI-powered product features, ensuring outputs are accurate, consistent, and aligned with user expectations.\nWe are an AI-native engineering team, where AI-assisted tools are a regular part of how we build, test, and ship. From generating test cases to analyzing defect patterns and exploring edge cases, you will use these tools to improve testing coverage and efficiency.\nKey Responsibilities\nProduct Quality Ownership\nOwn end-to-end quality for product features, from requirements review through release readiness.\n\nPartner with product managers, designers, and engineers to challenge and refine acceptance criteria by asking the right questions and identifying edge cases early in the development cycle.\n\nThink like a user: design and execute tests grounded in real user journeys, not just isolated feature checks.\n\nDefine and maintain test plans, test cases, and quality benchmarks that evolve with the product.\n\nData-Informed Testing\nUse product analytics, user feedback, and support data to prioritize testing efforts and focus on high-risk areas.\n\nIdentify patterns in defects and user-reported issues to drive systemic quality improvements.\n\nCommunicate quality status, risks, and trade-offs clearly to stakeholders, not just bug counts, but what they mean for the user experience.\n\nAI-Integrated QA\nLeverage AI-assisted tools (test case generation, exploratory testing support, defect analysis) as a regular part of your testing workflow to accelerate coverage and reduce blind spots.\n\nValidate AI-powered product features, ensuring model outputs, recommendations, and automated decisions meet accuracy and consistency standards.\n\nEvaluate and integrate emerging AI tools and practices into the team's QA processes.\n\nTesting Execution\nConduct regression, functional, and user acceptance testing (UAT) with a product-first mindset.\n\nVerify that new features meet acceptance criteria and are working as expected across user flows.\n\nStay current with emerging QA practices, AI-assisted testing tools, and product quality frameworks.\n\nTeam & Process\nCollaborate with product engineers, product managers, and founders to ensure quality supports rapid iteration and reliable delivery.\n\nDocument testing decisions, quality benchmarks, and known risk areas to support team knowledge sharing and onboarding.\n\nRegularly review and improve testing workflows, coverage strategies, and defect triage processes.\n\nQualifications\nRequired\n5+ years of experience in a QA role, with meaningful exposure to product-oriented testing.\n\nStrong understanding of the software development lifecycle (SDLC) and modern testing methodologies.\n\nDeep product thinking. You understand user behavior, can map complex user journeys, and know how to prioritize based on business impact.\n\nExperience using data (analytics, logs, user feedback) to inform testing strategy and prioritization.\n\nProficiency with bug-tracking and project management tools (JIRA, Linear, Trello, or similar).\n\nExcellent communication skills. You can articulate quality risks and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical audiences.\n\nStrong analytical skills with sharp attention to detail.\n\nDemonstrated, regular use of AI-powered tools (e.g., Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, or similar) to accelerate testing workflows, documentation, or defect analysis.\n\nStartup mindset: hands-on, resourceful, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment.\n\nPreferred\nExperience testing AI-powered product features, including validating model outputs, recommendation accuracy, or automated decision flows.\n\nFamiliarity with mortgage, lending, or fintech product domains.\n\nExperience with exploratory testing techniques and risk-based testing approaches.\n\nUnderstanding of how product analytics and observability tools can inform QA strategy.\n\nPrior early-stage startup experience is highly preferred.\n\nBenefits\nCompetitive salary\n\nUnlimited PTO\n\nRemote-first with flexible hours\n\nYearly professional development budget\n\nHome office setup stipend","description_format":"text","description_chars":4717,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Home office","Professional development","Unlimited PTO"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Consumer Loans & Pawnshops"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-13T15:56:30Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":5,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.184,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":207,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-09T06:03:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/saaffinance-senior-product-qa","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/saaffinance-senior-product-qa.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-09T16:24:03Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":23778,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-10T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":698350},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=698350"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fsaaffinance-senior-product-qa"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fsaaffinance-senior-product-qa"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fsaaffinance-senior-product-qa"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/saaffinance-senior-product-qa\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fsaaffinance-senior-product-qa"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":869567}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"saaffinance.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":869567},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
