•
Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Partner with Developers, DevOps, and Product Managers early in the lifecycle to identify potential risks and elevate overall product quality.

### What You Bring

•
Proven Expertise: 4+ years of professional software testing experience, with a heavy emphasis on backend testing and a profound understanding of client-server architecture.

•
API Testing Mastery: Strong hands-on experience validating REST APIs and parsing JSON using tools like Postman, Swagger, or equivalent.

•
Advanced Database Skills: Solid SQL knowledge, including the ability to write complex queries, manage joins, and manipulate data directly.

•
Test Documentation Ownership: Demonstrated experience defining test scopes and crafting flawless Test Plans, Test Cases, and Checklists.

•
Analytical Mindset: Exceptional troubleshooting skills with a scientific approach to problem-solving (e.g., traffic analysis, log diving).

•
Tool Fluency: High proficiency with JIRA and Confluence for project tracking and documentation.

•
Communication & Language: Upper-Intermediate (B2+) English proficiency with the exceptional verbal and written communication skills required to collaborate with architects and product leaders.

### Bonus Points if You Have

Hands-on experience with Mobile testing (iOS/Android).

•
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and modern DevOps tools.

•
Previous experience utilizing Allure TestOps for test management.

### What's in It for You

•
Competitive Compensation: Attractive remuneration package complete with a structured annual performance review.

•
Work-Life Balance: 24 working days of annual vacation, plus additional paid sick days, ensuring you have the proper time to rest and recharge.

•
Comprehensive Health: Premium global coverage health insurance to keep you and your wellbeing protected.

•
Continuous Growth: Robust learning and development opportunities, allowing you to tackle interesting, high-stakes technical challenges.

•
Commuter Benefits: Monthly transport compensation of €200 net.

•
Lifestyle & Wellness Perks: Partial compensation for tennis lessons, alongside English and Portuguese language classes to help you localize and thrive.

•
Vibrant Culture: Regular team-building activities in a collaborative, forward-thinking environment based out of our modern Lisbon office.

**Live in Lionhires’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
