About the Role

The QA Intern will help Cornerstone ship reliable software by testing new features, finding defects early, and making sure transactions, balances, and messages behave exactly as expected.

You'll work with frontend and backend engineers across web apps, dashboards, and USSD and WhatsApp flows, using test environments only.

Key Responsibilities

  • Write test cases and checklists from product requirements and acceptance criteria.
  • Perform manual testing of web, mobile, USSD, and WhatsApp flows in test environments.
  • Test edge cases such as failed payments, timeouts, duplicate submissions, and incorrect inputs.
  • Write clear, reproducible bug reports and verify fixes.
  • Run regression checks before releases.
  • Help build automated tests for APIs and user interfaces.
  • Test across devices, browsers, and network conditions.

Requirements

  • Basic understanding of how web applications and APIs work.
  • Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach.
  • Clear written communication for bug reports.
  • Familiarity with Git or willingness to learn.
  • Curiosity about how things break and how to prevent it.
