QA Engineer

Headquartered in Austin, Texas, with its EMEA HQ in Paris, Way is the category-leading B2B technology platform empowering brands to unlock the power of experiences. In a world where 76% of consumers prefer spending on experiences over material goods, Way enables brands to adapt to this shift with cutting-edge technology. Founded in 2020, Way began as a solution for hospitality brands to drive brand loyalty and generate experiential revenue at scale. Industry leaders like Hyatt Hotels, Hilton, Trailborn, and Auberge Resorts Collection rely on Way’s all-in-one experiential platform to launch unforgettable experiences — from hot air balloon rides in Mexico City to truffle hunting in the French countryside. Way has achieved significant milestones, including a $20 million Series A funding round in late 2022, led by Tiger Global and MSD Capital (Michael Dell), at a $100M valuation. As the company continues its rapid growth, we’re seeking visionary, driven team players to join our dynamic environment, where challenges are met with unmatched rewards as we transform the hospitality and experiences industry globally. Key Responsibilties

Develop test plans and test cases for new features based on specs, designs, and conversations with engineering

Execute exploratory testing to uncover edge cases and unexpected behavior across our booking platform

Test across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices to ensure consistent experiences

Verify bug fixes and perform regression testing on affected areas

Document issues clearly with reproduction steps, expected vs. actual behavior, and severity

Collaborate with our automation engineer to prioritize test coverage and hand off stable test cases for automation

Work directly with product and engineering to understand feature intent and acceptance criteria

Be the last line of defense before features ship to production

What We Are Looking For

3+ years of experience in manual software testing, ideally in a fast-paced startup environment

Ability to translate feature requirements into comprehensive test cases without hand-holding—you see a spec or Figma and know what to test

Strong intuition for where bugs hide—edge cases, state transitions, race conditions, and unexpected user behavior

Comfortable working in a fast-moving environment where specs aren't always perfect and priorities shift

Clear written communication for bug reports and test documentation

Experience with browser dev tools for investigating issues

You should be excited about startups and not looking for an easy job. This is a commitment, but it's a commitment that will set you, and as a byproduct, the company, apart from the pack
