QA Engineer
Pubblicato il 06-08-2026 - Accountable in Piemonte
What is Accountable?Accountable is a young fintech/taxtech focused on helping the self-employed automate their accounting and taxes with a simple mobile and web app. We are 80+ people spread across offices in Berlin and Brussels, as well as remote locations throughout Europe. We aim to create a product that is incredibly easy and fun to use, requiring no knowledge of tax or accounting.
We're growing at a rate of more than 150% per year, and our ambition is to become the European leader in our market. The role in one sentence Invii la sua candidatura dopo aver letto i requisiti di competenza e qualifica per questa posizione, riportati di seguito.
You'll be our third QA, joining a team of two (one focused on manual & exploratory testing, one on automation). Your first mission is to absorb the manual testing bottleneck so the team can ship fast and safely. As that pressure eases, you'll grow into automation, we'll actively help you get there.
This is a great fit if you have a strong testing instinct, care deeply about quality, and want to level up your technical skills in a supportive team.
What you'll do Phase 1 Manual & exploratory (your starting focus)
→ Execute and own test passes for new features across web (React) and mobile (iOS & Android) before release
→ Run exploratory testing on critical flows, invoice creation, VAT return submission (BE & DE), bank connection, plan upgrades, to catch the bugs scripted tests miss
→ Write clear, reproducible bug reports and well-structured test cases
→ Help triage incoming bugs and verify fixes before they ship
→ Partner with the squads to test features hands-on and give fast feedback
Phase 2 Growing into automation (as the bottleneck clears)
→ Start converting your most-repeated manual checks into automated tests (Playwright on web, Maestro on mobile), with mentoring from our automation QA
→ Contribute to API-level checks (e.g. Postman, Supertest)
→ Learn to read PRs for test coverage and grow toward owning parts of the automated suite A concrete example of the journey: in Phase 1 you manually check that creating an invoice produces the correct VAT amount. In Phase 2, you turn that exact check into a Playwright test that runs automatically on every release so no one has to click through it by hand again.
What we need
- 1–3 years of QA experience in a software product (SaaS or fintech a plus), or strong hands-on testing experience with a clear hunger to grow
- A real testing mindset: you think about edge cases, you try to break things, you don't just follow a script
- Comfortable testing across web and mobile (iOS & Android)
- Clear written communication, your bug reports save engineers time
- Correctness mindset: you understand why a wrong VAT amount is a compliance problem, not just a small bug
- Curiosity and willingness to learn automation, you don't need to write tests today, but you want to learn
- CET ± 2 hours timezone overlap
Nice to have
- Any exposure to test automation tools (Playwright, Cypress, Maestro, Appium, Selenium...), even a personal project counts
- Basic API testing (Postman or similar)
- A little scripting (JavaScript / Node.js, even beginner level)
- Belgian VAT / Intervat or German tax / Elster knowledge
- Open banking / PSD2 or e-invoicing (Peppol) familiarity
- Dutch or German language skills
What's different about this role We're not hiring "manual testing hours." We're hiring someone who starts by stabilizing quality manually, then grows into an automation engineer with real mentoring and a clear path. The two QA already on the team are there to support you on both sides. xrdztoy The details
