Sample interview questions
How would you build a testing strategy for a new cross-border payment workflow?

I would begin by mapping the workflow, business rules, failure modes, and acceptance criteria with product and engineering. I would prioritize API and integration coverage for critical transaction states, add end-to-end tests for essential user journeys, define negative and boundary cases, and use risk-based regression suites in CI/CD.

How do you decide what should be automated versus tested manually?

I automate stable, repeatable, high-risk, and frequently executed scenarios, especially regression and API validation. I use manual exploratory testing for new or rapidly changing features, usability concerns, unusual edge cases, and areas where automation would be costly before the product behavior has stabilized.

Describe how you would test a REST or GraphQL API for reliability.

I would validate authentication, authorization, schemas, status codes, error contracts, idempotency, pagination, rate limits, and data integrity. I would also test malformed inputs, timeouts, dependency failures, retries, concurrency, and observability so that failures can be diagnosed quickly.

What criteria would you use to evaluate an LLM-based tool for QA work?

I would evaluate it using representative tasks and measurable outcomes such as accuracy, repeatability, false-positive rates, security, cost, latency, and maintainability. I would keep human review for high-impact outputs, use controlled test data, and compare the tool’s results against established test cases and production-quality standards.

How do you make bug reports effective for developers and product stakeholders?

I provide a concise title, environment details, reproducible steps, expected and actual results, supporting evidence, severity, and user or business impact. I also clarify whether the issue is deterministic, identify relevant logs or request IDs, and collaborate on priority rather than treating severity as a unilateral decision.

About this role.

About us:

Airtm is a financial-infrastructure company building the future of the online-work economy. We are on a mission to empower the world’s growing number of Digital Entrepreneurs in the Global South, giving them the financial freedom to thrive.

The problem is clear: in emerging markets, accessing the dollar economy is difficult. Cross-border payments are slow, expensive, and often lose value to inflation. This limits the potential of millions of talented individuals.

Airtm’s solution is a swift and comprehensive financial platform that facilitates low-value cross-border payments and local cash-outs. As pioneers in stablecoin-payment infrastructure, Airtm has built the most advanced cross-border payment system available on the market.

As a company married to the world of online work, Airtm will go beyond payments to build the necessary infrastructure the online-work economy needs to thrive. We are fostering an entirely new economy, giving individuals, communities, and countries the tools to take control of their financial destinies.

  • Performs manual testing for complex or new features prior to the establishment of full automation coverage.

  • Monitors, analyzes, and improves test coverage, reliability, and performance over time.

  • Contributes to the continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) process by integrating automated tests into the deployment pipeline.

  • Enhances overall product quality by creating detailed bug reports, providing constructive feedback, and maintaining clear testing documentation.

  • Designs and deploys AI-assisted testing workflows to automate recurring tasks such as test case generation, test data synthesis, and log analysis.

  • Evaluates and integrates LLM-based testing and coding tools into the QA team’s workflow, assessing their reliability, accuracy, and fitness for automated testing and edge-case discovery use cases.

Experience and skills required:

–

  • Proven experience as a Senior QA Engineer (5+ Years of experience) or similar role, specifically testing modern web applications and backend services.

  • Strong proficiency with test automation frameworks such as Cypress, Playwright, or similar tools.
