Answer Posted / chris

Ok, this is long one, I'll try my best to answer:

QA Tester: usually a junior position. Is in charge of manual testing, reporting and follows directions from a QA analyst or a QA lead (a senior QA tester).

QA Analyst: In charge of planning, analysis and control of QA resources; risks and costs. Test plan and test cases design.

QA Engineer: usually takes the responsibility of building and maintain a QA framework. With higher seniority comes the responsibility of making the QA framework or tool every time more and more user friendly for QA analysts and junior QA automation testers.
