Manual QA Tester (Contract 3+ months)
What You'll Do
We're looking for a sharp, methodical manual tester to add dedicated manual-testing capacity to the QA org during a busy stretch of releases. You'll run structured manual and exploratory test passes across Standard Bots' software — the robot control apps, teach pendant, and core workflows — execute regression every release, and file clean, well-documented bugs. Because our software drives physical 6-axis robots, a bug isn't just a UI glitch; it can move real hardware. Careful, observant testing is the whole job.
This is a contract role (roughly 3 months, with the option to extend). It's a strong fit for an experienced manual tester who is disciplined, hardware-curious, and writes crisp reproduction steps.
Responsibilities
Execute manual regression and smoke passes across software releases — on the product UI and on real robots — to catch regressions before they reach customers.
Run broad exploratory testing across complex robotic workflows: probe edge cases, unusual sequences, and the failure modes scripted tests miss.
Write and maintain clear, repeatable manual test cases in our test-management tool (Qase), and keep them current as features ship.
File high-quality bug reports with precise reproduction step
