Description:
Quality Assurance Specialist @ Empire Flippers
Want to be part of something different?
You can when you work with us.
We are looking to bring on two Quality Assurance Specialists to join our team! This is a huge opportunity for you to work with one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S. and learn the ins and outs of the online business world. Over the last couple of years, our company has seen explosive growth—and there is no sign of it slowing down.
In order to keep hitting our goals, which include having the largest number of high quality deals in the market, we need to expand our horizons and improve our customer experience to a point that makes us the de-facto standard for buying and selling online businesses. Your work will help propel the industry forward to new levels not seen before.
Being a location-independent full time position is one of the many benefits. You’ll be free to work anywhere in the world outside of the USA (with the exception of Colorado, Florida, or Texas). Be it the beaches in Thailand – which does have superb 4G connectivity and cheaper cost of living – or in a mountain resort in the Swiss Alps – the choice is yours. *see USA resident requirements below.
WHAT IS THE OPPORTUNITY?
Becoming a Quality Assurance Specialist makes you a critical part of the Empire Flippers team. You will ensure that our products, applications, and systems work correctly, and learn skills that will last you a lifetime in the online business world.
This is a location independent position, allowing you to live wherever you’d like while working directly alongside the Engineering team, assessing software quality on the Empire Flippers platform through manual and automated testing.
We’ll teach you the ins and outs of the online business brokerage industry, coming from years of experience.
This is a full-time position. Our company is growing at a fast rate – 24% in 2019 – which means excellent opportunities for personal and career growth.

DETAILS TO KEEP IN MIND
When you first start off you will work closely in training with our Quality Assurance Supervisor who heads up our Quality Assurance team. During this period, your role will be probationary and your training and performance will be evaluated.
You can expect to be making USD $700 a month in salary. This entry level salary is enough to live a good-quality life (within reason) in Southeast Asia — or most of the world outside of the USA, for that matter.
We’re going to start you off slow. You’ll first learn about our company and what each department does; then you will be given some low-level tasks to ease you into the position. Over time, your skills will grow and you’ll be making a lot of decisions on your own. However, you will always have our support and knowledge to lean on. We aren’t going to throw you to the wolves — you’ll be part of a high-functioning team that is here to help wherever we can.
Our QA Supervisor, HR Coordinator, and VP of Engineering will be reviewing every application. If we think you’re a good fit, we will reach out to you to do a video call interview. After the first interviews are done, our final candidates will be brought back for a final second interview before we make our decision.
*US resident requirements: we will accept candidates residing in Texas, Colorado, or Florida, as we are registered for payroll in these states. Otherwise, US candidates should plan to live abroad or have plans to relocate to Texas, Colorado or Florida.
We have a no side project policy: we do not allow any ownership, association, or affiliations with online businesses or websites. If you are the owner of an online business, then you will be expected to either sell the business before you join us or sunset it upon accepting a job offer from us. If you are not comfortable with this, please do not apply.
A background check is required.
