QA Engineer Intern English Speaking

Top 3 Reasons To Join Us Competitive salary packages. Dynamic and open-sharing working environment. Hybrid and flexible working mode. The Job

🚀 Job Description

Spartan is a venture studio building and scaling zero-to-one startups alongside founders from VC (YC, PearVC, a16z, BlingCap), Stanford, Uber, and Amazon. Every project operates like a mini-startup: small teams, fast feedback loops, and high ownership.

As a QA Intern, you'll work on real production products shipped to real users, learn directly from QA engineers who've shipped at startup speed, and get exposure to AI-native QA workflows that most QA teams aren't doing yet.

 

🛠️ What you'll do

Hands-on Testing: Run functional, exploratory, and API testing on real products before they ship to users.

Bug Hunting & Reporting: Investigate issues deeply, reproduce them reliably, and write bug reports clear enough that developers can fix without follow-up questions.

Learn Risk-Based Thinking: Work alongside QA engineers to understand what to test, how much to test, and when a feature is good enough to ship.

Collaborate Across the Team: Join standups, PRD reviews, and release calls. Ask questions, surface edge cases, and learn how startups make quality decisions in real time.

Explore AI Testing: Get hands-on with modern tooling (LLM-assisted test generation, AI-powered exploratory testing) and contribute ideas on how we test AI features.

 

Tools you'll learn

QA workflow: Jira • Notion • Postman • Basic SQL (MySQL)

Testing: Functional • API • Exploratory • Cross-browser/device

Automation basics: Playwright or Cypress

AI-native QA: LLM-assisted test generation, evals, prompt regression

Your Skills and Experience

What we're looking for

Must-have

Strong English communication (written and verbal) to work directly with international clients and founders.

Foundational understanding of QA: test cases, bug life cycle, and core testing types (functional, regression, exploratory).

A curious, detail-oriented mindset — you naturally notice when something feels off and want to dig in.

A strong product mindset, comfortable operating without a perfect spec.

Nice-to-have

Hands-on experience with Jira, Notion, Postman, or basic SQL.

Personal projects, coursework, or freelance work where you tested software (even informally).

Familiarity with Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium basics.

Interest in testing AI / LLM-powered features.

Basic understanding of how web APIs, browsers, or mobile apps work under the hood.
