THE ROLE
This is a contributor role working on a small, cross-functional team made up of 2–3 developers, a product manager, and 1 Quality Advocate. The Quality Advocate is not solely responsible for quality in a team but should be always engaged in activities that will promote quality software development. That means your days may include helping define features from a user’s perspective, writing test cases anyone on the team can execute, or helping write automated tests with developers. This position reports to Software Development leadership.
At Ncontracts, we embrace an AI-first engineering culture. Our QA team actively uses agentic development tools, modern automation frameworks, and AI-powered workflows to accelerate quality at every stage of the development lifecycle. We expect our Quality Advocates to be curious, adaptive practitioners who lean into these tools — not just to do their jobs faster, but to help redefine what great quality engineering looks like.
