O poziciji

Very Big Things (VBT), an international award-winning digital product agency is looking for a Mid-level QA Analyst. We have offices in the US (Miami), Croatia (Zagreb), and Ukraine (Odessa) with our core business being the development of web and/or mobile platforms we create for our US clients. We are hiring for our Zagreb office.

A QA Analyst in VBT is a person who has a keen eye for details and a problem-solving mindset that is an important part of the QA know-how. Besides having a special sense for finding bugs, issues, and problems even before they occur, our QA Analyst has to be a critical thinker, which means that an inquisitive mind, as well as the desire to find the root of a problem, are of great importance. Since software testing is a dynamic job, our person has to be adaptable to quick changes and project requirements, which also means that time and task management are key. Being a fast learner is a big plus, having an open mind is a must.

Our main focus is building kickass web/mobile apps and platforms as well as VR experiences. Some of the awesome and challenging projects we’ve built that make a difference include:

• helping a client with digital transformation by building a telehealth platform enabling them to provide healthcare to thousands of users in the time of global health crisis
• building a mobile app for the premier boat rental company in Florida, allowing users to effortlessly rent a boat from the palm of their hand
• helping the #1 health-tech company provide clarity in a global crisis by building a COVID-19 Map using complex data to help individuals make critical decisions for themselves, their families, and their employees
• building a first-ever real-time all-inclusive wellness application, providing everyone with an elegant and simple solution to living a healthier life
• a peer-to-peer platform connecting college students to the elderly, solving life's problems. Like taking out the trash, walking the dog, or having a pleasant conversation.
