Position: Product & QA Manager

Location: Remote

Reports To: CEO

About Novabyte

At Novabyte, we build technology that takes our clients further.

We thrive on innovation, collaboration, and excellence — blending strategy, design, and engineering to bring powerful digital products to life.

We’re looking for a Product & QA Manager who can bridge the gap between strategy and execution — someone who ensures every feature shipped delivers clear value, functions as intended, and aligns with the company vision.

This is a hybrid role combining product management (planning, clarity, alignment) and quality assurance (testing, consistency, polish). You’ll serve as the connective tissue between design, development, and leadership — turning ideas into smooth, tested releases.

The Opportunity

As a Product & QA Manager, you’ll manage the full lifecycle of our projects — from defining requirements to validating delivery. You’ll collaborate closely with the CEO, developers, and designers to ensure our products are both user-friendly and technically sound.

Success Outcomes

1. Own the Product Lifecycle

• Translate ideas and business goals into clear product requirements and tickets
• Prioritize effectively — focusing the team on what truly moves the product forward
• Maintain and communicate the roadmap clearly to all stakeholders

2. Ensure Quality Across Every Release

• Develop QA checklists and test plans for each feature or sprint
• Perform both manual and exploratory testing
• Track and document bugs systematically, verifying fixes before release

3. Bridge Design, Development, and Strategy

• Facilitate handoff between teams with clarity and precision
• Ensure that user experience and functionality meet agreed-upon expectations
• Support developers and designers by clarifying intent and edge cases quickly
  
  

Who You Are

• You’re detail-oriented but also see the big picture
• You thrive on structure, clarity, and accountability
• You enjoy collaborating cross-functionally and helping others stay aligned
• You have a bias for action — when something’s unclear, you figure it out
  
  

Required Qualifications

• Experience as a Product Manager, QA Specialist, or similar cross-functional role
• Strong understanding of Agile/Scrum processes and backlog management
• Experience writing clear user stories and acceptance criteria
• Proficiency with tools such as Jira, Linear, ClickUp, or Notion for project tracking
• Experience performing QA testing for web or mobile products
• Solid ability to document, prioritize, and communicate effectively with remote teams
  
  

Nice-to-Have Skills

• Familiarity with Figma and basic front-end development concepts (React, APIs, etc.)
• Experience setting up QA automation tools or workflows
• Exposure to SaaS, marketplace, or platform-based products
• Comfort leading sprint planning and retrospectives
  
  

Soft Skills

• Excellent written and verbal communication
• Strong organizational and analytical thinking
• Calm under pressure, even when juggling multiple deliverables
• Collaborative, proactive, and solution-oriented
  
  

We’re growing quickly, which means you’ll have opportunities to lead team direction, own product areas, and make a visible impact. If you’re excited to help build digital experiences that make technology feel human, we’d love to meet you.
