Pactos is a fast-growing B2B SaaS startup reinventing how companies manage their external workforce. Our AI-powered platform digitizes the entire end-to-end process, enabling organizations to manage external staff and staffing providers in a compliant, transparent, and highly efficient way.

We are backed by renowened investors (HTGF, StepStone CEO, Peri Owner) and already trusted by best-in-class customers. We’re now looking for a QA Engineer who ensures that every release meets our high standards for reliability, usability, and scalability — and who wants to help us build a QA culture from the ground up.

You’ll take ownership of our test strategy, automate where it makes sense, and make sure our users experience a rock-solid platform.

• 🧩 Collaborate with developers – Work hand-in-hand with engineers to catch bugs early, improve code quality, and streamline releases.

• 🚀 Shape the QA foundation – Help establish Pactos’ QA standards and best practices to make product reliability measurable and actionable.

• Familiarity with API testing (Postman, Swagger, REST, GraphQL)
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.)
• Solid understanding of modern web apps (React, Node.js, etc.)
• Detail-oriented, structured, and proactive — you take ownership of quality

• Fair comp + ESOP: Competitive salary plus meaningful equity

• Speed: We make decisions in hours, not weeks. No politics. No BS.
• Growth & responsibility: Pragmatic, product-obsessed, and committed to winning - baopportunity to grow into a lead role
• Modern stack, flexible setup: hybrid either in central Munich or Berlin, outcome-driven, and lots of fun (e.g., Oktoberfest)
