Description
Ventrata is looking for a QA tester to join our team of kickass developers who are changing the way tours and tickets are sold across the planet. This is an amazing opportunity to join a rapidly growing company that is expected to expand significantly post-pandemic. We do have a distributed/remote team, but we do have a shared office space available in Brno and Lisbon, therefore we would prefer candidates in those locations, but we are fairly open for you to be located anywhere in Europe.
About Ventrata
Founded in late 2016, Ventrata aims to be the Google of the travel industry — the SaaS solution everyone relies on. We provide technology in all channels with a one-stop-shop ticketing, management and operational solution for attractions, tours and activity suppliers.Despite the challenging environment, Ventrata continues to grow in double digits. During the global pandemic, many attractions have restructured and upgraded their technology. For Ventrata, this has driven a growth rate of 6x — from $80m in ticket sales in 2019 to more than $900m in 2022.Ventrata has been profitable since 2018 and holds substantial private backing.
There have been two successful rounds of funding prior to coronavirus. No funding has been required to maintain operations through the period. Our team is based in Czechia, UK, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Slovakia, Croatia, Nigeria and the US.

- Compile and maintain release notes that document changes and updates released by the team, including feature releases and bug fixes.
- Act as a key collaborator within the engineering team to facilitate efficient workflows and enhance collaboration.
- Nice-to-have: Develop and maintain automated tests (with tools like Cypress / Playwright) to ensure that new releases function as intended without disrupting existing functionality.
