Senior Quality Assurance Analyst

Senior QA Analyst – Job Description

Location: Remote

Employment Type: [Contractor / Part-time / Full-time]

About BX Studio

We launch sites, fast. BX Studio is a Webflow-exclusive agency offering custom development, site migration, and ongoing maintenance and support services. We're a fast-moving team that values ownership, attention to detail, and strong communication.

Role Overview

As a Senior QA Analyst at BX Studio, you are not just reviewing builds — you are taking full ownership of the QA process across all phases of the project. You are responsible for ensuring our QA work aligns with the broader web development lifecycle: from initial scope and design handoff through development, internal reviews, client UAT, and launch.

You’ll lead QA efforts across a range of project types, including full site builds, Webflow migrations, and long-term optimization retainers. You’re expected to advocate for best practices in performance, accessibility, and responsive behavior, and help the team spot risks early, streamline communication, and deliver confidently to clients.

This is a hands-on role where attention to detail is critical — but equally important is your ability to lead QA thinking, maintain standards, and support other team members in understanding what great QA looks like. You’ll work closely with developers, project managers, and occasionally clients to ensure quality is embedded in everything we ship.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the QA process across assigned projects — from initial review to launch

• Understand and operate within the waterfall process for web development, including scoping, development handoffs, remediation cycles, UAT, and go-live

• Proactively identify quality risks, blockers, or scope gaps and communicate them early to devs and PMs

• Ensure that internal QA checklists are completed thoroughly and consistently

• Lead QA efforts for ongoing optimization clients — verifying fixes, identifying regressions, and maintaining consistent quality across live environments

• Document and report bugs clearly using Marker.io and Asana, with context and reproducible steps

• Ensure fixes are re-tested and that full regression testing is done before approvals

• Cross-check designs (Figma), specs, and build tickets to align expectations

• Participate in internal team handoffs or review calls when needed

• Share insights and propose process improvements within the QA function

• Help uphold and evolve QA best practices across the team

Required Skills & Experience

• Deep understanding of responsive behavior, browser compatibility, and user experience expectations

• Familiarity with web development workflows and waterfall-style project phases

• Excellent written communication skills, with a focus on clarity and collaboration

• Ability to work autonomously and lead the QA lifecycle on multiple projects

• Comfort navigating ambiguous or changing project scopes and resolving blockers

• Bonus: experience with accessibility testing, performance audits, or QA automation tools

Working Hours

• The QA analyst will provide a fixed working schedule in advance, specifying their daily working hours.

• Availability during these agreed-upon hours is mandatory for collaboration, meetings, and timely bug turnaround.

• Meeting deadlines and communication responsiveness within these hours is required.

Soft Skills & Mindset

• Proactive and solution-oriented in identifying and resolving quality risks

• Clear communicator — surfaces issues early and provides actionable input

• Receptive to feedback and committed to continuous improvement

• Curious and thoughtful — contributes ideas to improve processes or tools

• Balances quality standards with real-world project constraints

Performance & Growth
