About this role

This experienced-hire QA Engineer joins a Scrum-based agile product team and contributes to product quality from planning and specification discussions through post-release improvement. The role is broader than executing tests or identifying defects: it involves considering how to deliver a better learning experience and helping the development process evolve.

Responsibilities include organizing issues within the product team, validating hypotheses, proposing improvements, designing and executing test cases, analyzing quality after release, promoting test automation, improving development processes, and identifying and resolving quality issues across teams. The QA Engineer works closely with engineers, designers, product owners, and business members to advance product development from a quality perspective.

The development teams generally include two to three engineers, two to three designers, and approximately one QA member, for a total of five to seven people. Product owners work across multiple teams. Each development team also collaborates closely with business teams responsible for advancing the business. Separate SRE and development-platform teams handle site reliability and cross-team technical issues.

The product context is an AI-based learning material called atama+, which is provided to more than 4,500 cram schools and preparatory-school classrooms. The organization also operates atama+ learning schools and online learning services, provides university-related programs, and began offering an employee education program for companies in March 2026.

Product members use visits to schools using atama+ and interviews with students enrolled in the online school to observe users and gather feedback. These observations and interviews inform ongoing product development and improvement. The QA Engineer is expected to participate in discussions about product and service issues from the planning and specification stages, working with business teams to identify user needs and support product growth.
