QA Engineer

About the Role

Skill Stand In works with AI training and evaluation opportunities available through platforms such as DataAnnotation, Handshake AI, and Alignerr.

These platforms provide projects designed to improve AI systems through human evaluation and feedback.

• Understanding of functional, integration, regression, API, browser, and end-to-end testing.
• Familiarity with tools such as Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, Postman, browser developer tools, or similar technologies.
