About the role

From FutureMedia's posting on Ashby, as they wrote it

About FutureMedia

FutureMedia is a global product portfolio company building practical digital products used by millions of people worldwide.

Our products span career, self-discovery, productivity, and digital essentials. We build them by bringing product, engineering, design, data, and growth together around real user needs and shared business goals.

We take responsibility for outcomes, learn through experimentation, and believe good ideas can come from any teammate.

Right now, FutureMedia is looking for a QA Engineer who knows our products better than anyone else on the team and stays closest to our real customers. You'll test the way a real user would, combining sharp manual testing with TypeScript and Playwright automation, and working every day with AI coding agents. This is not a follow-the-checklist role: requirements will sometimes be incomplete, and you'll know how to test anyway, ask the right questions, and find the bugs others miss.

Your impact

  • Own manual testing as a first-class discipline: exploratory testing, fast bug hunting, unconventional test paths, and creative edge-case thinking.
  • Design test coverage with formal test design techniques such as equivalence partitioning, boundary values, decision tables, state transitions, and pairwise testing.
  • Write, maintain, and extend automated tests in TypeScript and Playwright, keeping the suite reliable as the product evolves.
  • Work daily with AI coding agents (Claude Code CLI or IDE extension, OpenCode, or similar) to accelerate testing, generate test cases, and automate routine work.
  • Test payments end to end across Stripe, Adyen, and PayPal, including sandboxes, test cards, webhooks, and provider-specific behavior.
  • Run cross-browser and responsive testing across viewports with BrowserStack, on real devices and simulators or emulators.
  • Perform API testing, read application logs to localize issues, and maintain Playwright reporting pipelines with Slack notifications.
  • Write and maintain test cases in Xray, ideally with AI assistance, and report results clearly within Scrum.
  • Proactively propose product and UX improvements and, when needed, run comparative analysis against competitors.

About you

  • 3+ years of manual testing, including mandatory experience on SaaS products.
  • 2+ years of test automation with TypeScript and Playwright.
  • 1+ year of hands-on AI-assisted work: core Claude Code CLI (or similar agentic CLI) commands and workflows, context window management, basics of AI agent orchestration, and an understanding of skills (what they are, how to create and apply them).
  • Strong command of test design techniques. This is non-negotiable.
  • Solid understanding of client-server architecture and the software development lifecycle (SDLC).
  • Payment testing experience with Stripe, Adyen, and PayPal, including sandbox environments and provider specifics.
  • Experience with Git and GitHub or GitLab workflows.
  • Ability to create and maintain CI/CD jobs, with GitHub Actions preferred.
  • Understanding of Playwright reporting pipelines: publishing reports (for example, to an S3 bucket) and configuring Slack notifications for automated test runs.
  • Experience with Xray for test case management.
  • Ability to test well under incomplete or ambiguous requirements: you read requirements critically, find gaps and contradictions, and cover them with test cases.
  • Self-organized and autonomous. You know what to do next without being told.
  • An out-of-the-box thinker who finds bugs quickly through unconventional paths.
  • Analytical mindset: you don't just report bugs; you understand the product deeply enough to suggest how to make it better.
  • Clear communication: you report results, estimate work, and keep the team informed.

Will be a plus

• Experience with PostHog (product analytics, session replays, feature flags).

What you can expect at FutureMedia

  • Product variety: Exposure to different products, audiences, and digital categories within one company
  • Remote freedom: Work from where you do your best work
  • Set up to succeed: Modern AI tools to automate routine tasks and focus on higher-value work
  • Time to recharge: 22 paid days off plus your local public holidays
  • European offsites: Company gatherings across Europe to meet, connect, and spend time together
