QA Engineer

About us:

Danphe Software Labs has been in business for over 3 years now. Out of four co-founders, three are in the engineering core team and have worked under the same umbrella for over 5 years (previously in a different company). We are based out of Anamnagar, Kathmandu. 

Our main forte is Ruby on Rails development. We also do React and React Native. We exclusively undertake outsourced projects, and our clientele is based mainly in the US. We currently have about 35 engineers working on numerous long-term projects. 

The projects we oversee are often challenging. Most projects deal with not-so-simple business logic and have a significant number of models. Some of the projects we do are in their mid-life development timeline, and some have been in production-level usage for several years with a significant user base.

We promote sound work and life balance. Our work timings are Monday - Friday, 9 am - 6 pm. We don't expect anyone to work off-hours, or over the weekends. There are no late-night meetings. We have in the past rejected lucrative projects which required working off-hours. While we expect everyone to come to the office physically, we have entertained remote work in special and genuine cases. We conduct frequent social events of different kinds to have a change in context and re-energize ourselves. 

We offer a dynamic, hospitable work environment and the opportunity to work with a talented and collaborative team. We have implicit openings year around for enthusiastic problem-solvers who would be a good fit for our team.
