I Googled "What is the difference between QA and testing?" so I didn't need to write a long boring description.

“QA is more focused on managing the product life cycle and verifying that the software meets the defined quality standards or customer agreements… Testing, on the other hand, may keep an eye on the processes and often owns them, but is far more concerned with finding ways to break the software.”

 

Now lets skip why you should be interested in this particular QA role:

• It is the first of its kind at our company so you can set up things the way you want
• We ship product that gets quick use and feedback from users.
• You will set your hours because we are flexible and remote first.
• Jeremy Gracik, The VP of Product and your team lead, is amazing.
