Quality Analyst

The Quality Analyst is an active participant throughout the software development lifecycle, from reviewing requirements and acceptance criteria to functional testing, integration testing, and production release validation. The role involves developing a deep understanding of the WarehouseQuote platform and how data and transactions move between applications, APIs, and warehouse management systems.

What You Will Do
