Careers at Zelqa
We're a small, hands-on team that tests real client software and trains the next generation of QA engineers on that same real work. If you care about quality as much as we do, we want to hear from you — even if there's no open role listed below.
What It's Actually Like Here
We're deliberately small. That means no work disappearing into a queue behind layers of process — what you build and test this month is visible, and it matters to a real client or a real cohort of students. It also means we expect people who want that visibility, not people looking to disappear into a big org chart.
Benefits
Real Client Project Exposure
You test and build on the same live projects our clients pay for — not simulated exercises. Your work in year one is portfolio-worthy.
Direct Mentorship
Small team means direct access to senior QA engineers on every project, not a queue behind five layers of management.
Flexible / Remote-Friendly
Work structured around delivering good testing, not around being watched at a desk for eight hours.
A Defined Growth Path
A clear track from Intern to QA Associate to Senior QA / Trainer, with responsibility that grows as your skill does — not a vague promise.
Certificate & Reference
Formal completion certificate for interns and trainees, plus a real reference from people who actually watched you work.
Teaching, Not Just Doing
Everyone here — including engineers on client work — gets the chance to mentor or train students, which sharpens your own testing thinking too.
Internships, QA Associates & Corporate Trainers
Internships
For students and early-career candidates who want to learn QA on real work, not a simulated curriculum.

QA Associates
For testers ready to own real testing scope on client engagements and training projects.
What we offer
- ✔Ownership of a defined testing scope on live client work
- ✔Exposure across manual, API, database, and regression testing — not siloed into one skill
- ✔Direct involvement in release sign-off decisions, not just execution
- ✔Growth track toward Senior QA / QA Lead
- ✔Opportunity to co-mentor academy students on real project work
Corporate Trainers
For experienced QA professionals who want to teach what they actually practice.
What we offer
- ✔Freedom to design curriculum from your own real project experience, not a fixed script
- ✔A mix of live teaching and hands-on project mentorship
- ✔Continued involvement in client QA work, so your teaching stays current
- ✔Recognition as the named instructor for your modules
- ✔Flexible scheduling around cohort needs
What to Expect
The practical assessment is a real testing scenario, not a trivia quiz — we want to see how you think through a problem, the same way you would on day one of the job.
Where This Can Go
Progression is based on demonstrated ownership on real projects, not tenure — a strong intern can outpace a longer-tenured associate if the work shows it.
