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.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🎯 WHAT YOU'LL DO━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━→ Review specs before development starts — flag compliance edge cases, untestable acceptance criteria, and cross-squad risks before a line of code is written→ Own the cross-squad integration test suite — the flows that span multiple squads (Expenses → Tax encoding → VAT return) that no single engineer would naturally own→ Build and maintain E2E tests for our critical user journeys on web (Playwright) and mobile (Maestro): invoice creation, VAT return submission (BE & DE), bank connection, OTC payments, plan upgrades→ Review Tier 1 PRs for test coverage — not to re-test manually, but to validate the tests themselves before merge→ Test AI features: OCR accuracy, our AI Tax Advisor (AITA) chatbot behaviour, and ML categorisation confidence thresholds — using accuracy benchmarks, prompt regression suites, and LLM-as-judge evaluation→ Coach engineers to own unit and component tests as part of the definition of done — quality shifts to the whole team, not just QA━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━✅ WHAT WE NEED━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- 3–6 years QA experience in a SaaS or fintech product company
- Strong test automation — Playwright, Cypress, Maestro, Appium or equivalent. You write tests, you don't just run them.
- Cross-platform testing: web, iOS, and Android
- API-level testing with Supertest, Postman, or similar
- Able to work independently across multiple squads without constant direction
- Correctness mindset: you understand why a VAT miscalculation is a compliance issue, not just a data bug━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⭐ STRONG DIFFERENTIATORS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Experience testing AI/ML features: OCR pipelines, LLM chatbot behaviour (hallucination, multi-turn context, tool invocation), confidence thresholds
- Uses AI to improve QA: LLM-generated test cases, LLM-as-judge evaluation patterns
- Feature flag testing and gradual rollout validation
- Contract testing (Pact or Jest schema validation)━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━💚 NICE TO HAVE━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Belgian VAT / Intervat or German tax / Elster knowledge
- Open banking / PSD2 experience
- Peppol / e-invoicing familiarity
- Dutch or German language skills━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━❌ NOT WHAT WE NEED━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━A manual QA specialist who executes test plans written by others. We need someone who builds automation, tooling, and quality culture — not more manual testing hours.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━📍 THE DETAILS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━📌 Remote — or join us in our offices in Brussels 🇧🇪 or Berlin 🇩🇪🕐 Full-timeTimezone: CET ± 2 hours overlap required🛠️ Stack: React · React Native · Node.Js / Express · Playwright · Maestro · Jest · GitHub Actions⚠️ NO RECRUITMENT AGENCIES ⚠️
