Data QA Engineer at Truelogic - Remote LATAM — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
Location Freedom & Async Potential: This role is explicitly 100% remote and results-oriented — Truelogic states "focus on results, not the clock," which is a strong signal of async-friendly culture. While the position targets Latin America (for nearshore alignment with U.S. clients), timezone flexibility within the Americas is realistic. Expect some overlap with U.S. Eastern or Central business hours for collaboration with American client teams.
Nomad Destination Fit: USD compensation is a major advantage for nomads based in lower cost-of-living countries. Consider these popular LATAM nomad hubs:
- Medellín, Colombia: Monthly costs ~$1,200–$1,800 USD. Strong coworking scene and reliable infrastructure — excellent value.
- Mexico City, Mexico: ~$1,500–$2,200/month. Great timezone alignment with U.S. clients (CT/ET), large tech community.
- Buenos Aires, Argentina: ~$900–$1,400/month with USD earnings providing significant purchasing power advantage.
Practical Notes: You'll need a stable internet connection for database work and pipeline testing — fiber or dedicated broadband is essential. No travel perks or equipment stipends are explicitly mentioned, so budget accordingly. With autonomous scheduling, you can theoretically base yourself across multiple LATAM countries on tourist visas (typically 90–180 days), making country-hopping within the region straightforward.

- Test data pipelines, transformations, and business logic within business intelligence reporting tools like Tableau and Power BI to guarantee accurate report generation.
- Build and maintain automated test scripts to execute seamless database regression and integration testing.
- Identify slow-running queries, monitor execution plans, evaluate database indexing, and collaborate closely with DBAs to fine-tune overall system performance.
- Partner with developers, data analysts, and product teams to track defects utilizing JIRA or TestRail and drive data quality best practices across the engineering organization.
Qualifications and Job Requirements
- Advanced ability to write and execute complex SQL queries for deep data verification, reconciliation, and troubleshooting.
- Proven track record of validating ETL and ELT data pipelines, transformation logic, and complex data warehousing environments.
- Hands-on experience testing database objects and structures, with a solid understanding of data normalization and schema validation.
- Practical experience documenting full-lifecycle test plans, cases, results, and defects in tools like JIRA or TestRail.
- Hands-on experience with test automation tools and programming languages such as Python, Selenium (with SQL assertions), or custom database scripting is highly preferred.
- Familiarity with non-functional testing using tools like Apache JMeter for database load, stress, and performance testing is a plus.
- Experience testing presentation layers, reports, and business logic in BI platforms such as Tableau or Power BI is strongly desired.
- Understanding of query execution plans, indexing strategies, and database performance tuning is a plus.
