What is a math software tester?

Math Software Testers are professionals who ensure that mathematical software programs function correctly and accurately. They design and execute tests to check calculations, algorithms, and user interfaces for errors or bugs. Their work helps developers deliver reliable products by identifying and documenting issues, suggesting improvements, and verifying that fixes resolve problems. Math Software Testers often need strong math skills and attention to detail, as well as familiarity with testing tools and methodologies.

What are the typical challenges faced by math software testers when validating complex mathematical algorithms?

Math Software Testers often encounter challenges in thoroughly validating the accuracy and performance of complex mathematical algorithms, especially when dealing with edge cases, floating-point precision, or large data sets. It requires a deep understanding of both software testing methodologies and mathematical concepts to design effective test cases and identify subtle calculation errors. Collaborating closely with developers and mathematicians is common, as testers need to clarify requirements and ensure that implemented algorithms match theoretical expectations. Additionally, keeping up with evolving mathematical libraries and tools can be essential for maintaining high-quality testing standards.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a math software tester, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Math Software Tester, you need strong mathematical knowledge, analytical thinking, and familiarity with software testing methodologies, often supported by a degree in mathematics, computer science, or a related field. Experience with testing tools like Selenium, JUnit, or MATLAB, as well as proficiency in scripting languages and bug tracking systems, is typically required. Attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication are vital soft skills for identifying and reporting issues clearly. These skills ensure accurate validation of mathematical algorithms and reliable software performance, which are crucial for delivering high-quality math software products.

What is the difference between Math Software Tester vs Software Quality Assurance Tester?

Key responsibilities

  • Validate insurance technology platforms against business requirements.

  • Execute manual functional, integration, regression, and system testing for new implementations, upgrades, defects, and changes.

  • Log clear, concise, reproducible defects and test results in the work management system.


Job description

The software that runs insurance has to work. That's your job.

Behind every policy quoted, every claim paid, and every bill generated is a system that has to get it right — every time, for every scenario, for every client. When it doesn't, someone notices. We'd rather that someone be you.


As a Software Tester at Marias Technology, you own the quality of what we ship. You'll validate insurance technology platforms against business requirements, hunt down defects before they reach production, and give developers the clear, reproducible detail they need to fix things fast.

This is a full-time career role with real benefits, real mentorship, and a real path forward. You don't need years of QA experience — you need sharp attention to detail, clear writing, and the persistence to keep digging when something feels off. We'll teach you the rest.


Coming from legal, accounting, or banking? Keep reading.

Some of the strongest software testers we've seen didn't start in software. They started as legal assistants, accounting support, bookkeepers, AP/AR specialists, medical billing specialists, loan processors, and bank operations staff.

Here's why that works. If you've spent your career reviewing contracts against a checklist, reconciling accounts that have to balance to the penny, or processing loan files where one wrong field triggers a compliance problem, you've already built the two skills this job depends on most:

  • You compare what's there against what should be there — and you catch the discrepancy
  • You document it precisely enough that someone else can act on it

That's software testing. The subject matter changes from contracts and ledgers to policies and claims. The discipline is identical. Add in the fact that insurance technology is built on rating math, regulatory rules, and billing logic — territory that already feels familiar to anyone from a legal, financial, or banking environment — and the transition is shorter than you'd think.


If you've been looking for a way into technology and assumed you needed a CS degree to get there, this is the door.

What you'll do

  • Test against system specifications to validate that software performs to customer expectations
  • Execute manual functional, integration, regression, and system testing for new implementations, upgrades, defects, and changes
  • Read specifications, manuals, and business requirements, then build test plans that cover every area in scope
  • Test across the full breadth of an insurance platform — workflow, rating, print, rules and validations, billing, claims, and third-party raters
  • Distinguish genuine defects from specifications that need updating, and escalate each appropriately
  • Log clear, concise, reproducible defects and test results in our work management system
  • Re-test resolved defects to confirm issues are fully closed
  • Work independently on assigned test cycles while collaborating with our testing management staff
  • Identify workarounds that keep clients moving while permanent fixes are developed
  • Deliver testing assignments on schedule and communicate risks early


What you need

Required

  • High school diploma or equivalent
  • Some combination of coursework, certificate, degree, or hands-on experience in Business, Insurance/Risk Management, General IT, Compputer Science, Software Engineering, MIS, or a closely related field — or demonstrated aptitude from a detail-intensive role
  • Basic computer proficiency: navigating applications, managing files, working in browser-based tools
  • Microsoft Teams, Excel, Word, and Outlook experience
  • Ability to read and follow documented test scripts and step-by-step procedures
  • Willingness to learn our work management system
  • Ability to work full-time, in-office in Covington, OH

Preferred

  • Administrative or operations experience in a legal, accounting, or banking environment — legal assistant, accounting support, bookkeeper, AP/AR, medical billing specialist, loan processor, teller operations, or similar
  • Other detail-intensive backgrounds (data entry, customer service, billing, claims processing, medical records, quality control, audit support)
  • Associate or bachelor's degree in a related field
  • Prior QA, software testing, or technology internship or work experience
  • Enrollment in or completion of an ISTQB Foundation Level course
  • Familiarity with defect tracking tools (e.g., Jira, Azure DevOps)
  • Prior insurance knowledge, or willingness to learn insurance terminology and workflows on the job
  • Comfort following business process documentation and business requirements to understand what's being tested

Who thrives here

  • You notice. The misaligned field, the premium off by a penny, the record that saved when it shouldn't have
  • You write clearly. A defect nobody can reproduce is a defect nobody fixes
  • You're accountable. Assignments land on time, and you flag problems before they become surprises
  • You think through problems. Three approaches before "it doesn't work"
  • You're coachable. Feedback lands, and it shows up in your next test cycle
  • You have integrity. You do the right thing when it's inconvenient, and you own your mistakes
