Farm To Feed: Quality Assurance Engineer — Web + Mobile + API + Integrations

About Farm to Feed 

Farm to Feed is building the digital backbone for efficient, transparent supply chains in  Kenya, connecting suppliers and producers to commercial kitchens and institutional  buyers through one integrated platform. Our purpose-built ERP powers procurement, real time inventory, receiving, dispatch, pricing and finance, working hand-in-hand with our  B2B e-commerce and supplier mobile app to reduce manual work, improve fulfillment  performance, and strengthen traceability and data quality from sourcing to delivery across  multiple product categories. We’re a practical, execution-driven team that ships what  moves the needle in operations and customer experience, using data to learn fast and  scale what works. 

Role summary 

Own day-to-day product quality across our ERP, e-commerce, supplier mobile app, APIs,  and operational automations. You’ll build and execute test plans, protect releases with  smart regression coverage, and improve our QA process with practical automation where  it pays off. 

What you’ll do 

Test execution & release confidence

• Create test plans and test cases for new features, regression cycles, and  hotfix validation.
• Validate end-to-end workflows: purchase → receive → inventory updates →  sales/orders → dispatch → payments/reconciliation. 

Bug management

• Write excellent bug reports (clear steps, logs, expected vs actual,  severity/priority).
• Triage issues with engineering and help confirm fixes quickly. 

Automation 

• Maintain a small, high-value automation suite (smoke tests, critical paths,  API tests).
• Support CI quality gates (basic checks + targeted regression before deploy). o Frontend E2E testing with tolls such as Cypress. 
  

Non-functional testing 

• Basic performance checks on critical endpoints and workflows (especially  report-heavy areas).
• Data integrity testing for inventory and traceability fields (the stuff that  breaks trust fastest). 

Process & documentation 

• Improve QA standards: definition of done, acceptance criteria quality,  release checklists, and test coverage reporting. 

What success looks like (sample KPIs) 

• Reduced production defects and repeat incidents
• Shorter regression cycles with stable coverage
• Faster bug turnaround time (report → reproduce → fix verified)
• Automated tests coverage
• Higher confidence in releases, fewer rollbacks 

Requirements 

• 3–5 years QA experience on web applications + APIs (mobile testing experience is a  plus).
• Comfortable with REST APIs, JSON, test data setup, and validating integrations.
• Familiar with at least one automation approach (e.g., browser-based UI + API  testing).
• Strong attention to detail and ownership mindset (you break it before users do). 

Nice to have 

• Experience testing messaging workflows (e.g., WhatsApp) or integrations  (payments, accounting).
• Exposure to modern delivery pipelines (e.g., GitHub CI/CD patterns). 

Reporting line & working style 

• Reports to: Head of Technology
• Works closely with: Engineering, Ops/Procurement, Sales, Customer Support, Data/Analytics. 

What we offer 

• Real ownership of quality: QA has a seat at the table—your sign-off meaningfully  shapes what ships and when. 
• High-impact work: You’ll protect the reliability of systems that run core operations  (ERP, B2B e-commerce, supplier app, APIs, integrations).
• Strong exposure & growth: Hands-on experience across web, mobile, API testing,  data integrity checks, and operational workflows—great runway for becoming a  Senior QA / QA Lead.
• Fast feedback loop: Tight collaboration with engineering and operations, so issues  get reproduced, fixed, and verified quickly.
• Practical process improvements: Freedom to introduce lightweight testing  standards (release checklists, regression packs, better bug reporting) that reduce  fire-fighting over time.
• Flexible working rhythm: Hybrid/remote where possible, with occasional on-site  time to understand real workflows and validate releases in context.
• Competitive pay: A salary aligned to the Kenyan market for the level and scope of  the role.
