QA Intern (Software Quality Assurance)

About the Role

Our client, a growing technology consultancy, is seeking a motivated QA Intern to join its Quality Assurance team. This is a structured, supervised learning role that builds a strong foundation in software quality assurance: the practices, tools and professional behaviours that underpin successful software delivery.

The intern works alongside experienced QA professionals, engineers and business analysts, gaining hands-on exposure to real projects with regular feedback and mentoring. The focus is on learning and capability development. Work is limited to clearly defined tasks, with guidance available throughout, and the role carries no delivery accountability.

Key Responsibilities

• Support testing and quality activities under guidance, including test execution, test automation, test data preparation and documentation updates.
• Assist in creating and maintaining test artefacts, including test cases, automation scripts, test notes and defect records.
• Execute clearly defined test scenarios and accurately record results.
• Learn and apply established QA processes, tools and standards.
• Shadow experienced QA team members to understand QA practice across the delivery lifecycle.
• Raise questions, gaps and issues promptly, and actively seek feedback.
• Demonstrate professionalism, reliability and attention to detail in all assigned tasks.

Required Skills and Experience

• Strong interest in software quality assurance and test automation.
• Willingness to learn and to work within structured direction.
• High attention to detail and accuracy.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to follow instructions, processes and standards.
• Professional conduct, reliability and respect for confidentiality.
