Volunteer Software Tester information

What is a volunteer software tester?

A Volunteer Software Tester is an individual who helps test software applications for bugs, usability issues, and overall functionality without monetary compensation. They assist developers and quality assurance teams by providing feedback on software performance, ensuring it meets required standards before release. This role is often taken by aspiring testers, students, or tech enthusiasts looking to gain experience in software testing. Volunteers typically report issues, suggest improvements, and may participate in beta testing or user experience evaluations.

What types of projects and tasks can I expect to work on as a volunteer software tester?

As a Volunteer Software Tester, you may be involved in testing websites, mobile apps, or internal tools for nonprofit organizations, startups, or community projects. Your daily tasks could include executing test cases, reporting bugs, providing feedback on usability, and documenting your findings for the development team. You'll likely work closely with both developers and other volunteer testers, typically using collaborative tools and participating in team meetings or online discussions. This hands-on experience allows you to expand your technical skills, build your portfolio, and contribute to meaningful causes, all while gaining valuable insight into the software development lifecycle.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a volunteer software tester?

To thrive as a Volunteer Software Tester, you should have a basic understanding of software development and testing concepts, with experience in manual testing being especially helpful. Familiarity with bug tracking tools (like Jira) and testing frameworks, along with any online certifications in software testing, can strengthen your contributions.

Job description

Points North is looking for a Software Engineer in Test who is excited about doing meaningful, high-impact work on a product that people already depend on and making it better. You will be joining a small, fast-moving Agile team with the specific mission of modernizing the quality practices around a mature production application.  You will be working with systems that real people use every day to do their job, and you are excited to make things measurably better than you found them.
If you are the kind of Engineer who gets energized by bringing structure and confidence to a complex codebase, who sees a legacy system as an opportunity rather than a liability, and who wants to build the testing foundation that carries a product into its next era we want to talk to you.
What You'll Be Doing:
  • Enable the QA modernization journey. Partner with software engineers, other quality engineers, and product managers to assess where the application stands today and chart a practical path toward modern, sustainable quality practices without over-engineering the solution.
  • Balance manual and automated testing. Apply targeted manual testing where it delivers the most insight while systematically expanding automated coverage over time.  Know when each approach is the right tool for the job.
  • Design, develop, and maintain automated test suites for our SaaS products using Playwright, C# and TypeScript, including end-to-end (E2E), integration, and API tests.
  • Build test tools, frameworks, and utilities that improve coverage, accelerate execution, and make the whole team more effective.
  • Leverage AI tools as a force multiplier, not a shortcut. Use AI thoughtfully to expand test coverage, accelerate test creation and maintenance, and surface insights.
  • Participate in code reviews, pair programming, and agile events as a core member of the team.
  • Help define and evolve testing strategies and best practices across the team as the codebase and product mature.
  • Follow DevSecOps best practices for CI/CD and contribute to deployment automation.
  • Continuously learn and grow technically, collaboratively, and in how you think about quality.
What We Are Looking For:
  • A hands-on QA engineer with a developer mindset who is genuinely excited about legacy modernization.  We are looking for someone who sees complexity as a puzzle worth solving.
  • A practical thinker who balances automated coverage with targeted manual testing, and knows that the goal is confidence, not coverage numbers.
  • Someone who is enthusiastic about AI as an enabler.  Someone who is eager to experiment with AI-assisted tooling to move faster and reach further, while understanding that AI augments good engineering judgment rather than replacing it.
  • A collaborator who communicates openly, takes pride in their work and their team's work, and leaves codebases and processes better than they found them.
  • A builder who wants to see their work ship, make an impact, and solve real world problems.
Qualifications:
  • 5+ years of experience in professional software development or software quality engineering.
  • Proven, professional experience building and utilizing test automation tools and frameworks.
  • Proficiency with languages such as C# and/or TypeScript.
  • Experience testing REST APIs and using tools like Postman or equivalent automation frameworks.
  • Experience with source control and modern CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions).
  • Comfortable working with relational databases such as SQL Server.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work as a core member of an Agile software development team.
  • Solid understanding of modern software engineering principles and best practices.
  • Experience working in a SaaS company or small, fast-paced development team.
  • Familiarity with cloud services (Azure App Services, Azure SQL, Azure Functions).
  • Experience bringing QA practices to legacy or established codebases.
 

At Points North, we believe that taking care of our team is the foundation of our success. That’s why we’ve created a benefits package designed to support you both personally and professionally: 

  • Health Insurance: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans are available to keep you and your family healthy. 

  • Retirement Savings: Invest in your future with employer-matching contributions to a SIMPLE Traditional and/or ROTH IRA plan. 

  • Time Off: Generous PTO, paid holidays, and Volunteer Time Off (VTO) are offered so that you can take time to recharge and give back to what matters to you. 

  • Growth Opportunities: Professional development is encouraged whether it be in training, certifications, or other opportunities to boost your career. 

  • Flexibility: Depending on the role, remote or hybrid arrangements may be made available to fit your lifestyle and business needs. 

For this position the base salary range is $110,000 - $125,000 per year, plus annual bonus eligibility. Final compensation determinations will reflect your unique experience, skills, and the responsibilities of the role. 

At Points North, you’ll find an energizing, ambitious and supportive workplace where your contributions make a real impact. Ready to join our team? Apply today to take the next step in your career!
