TL;DR · Quality Engineer

The Quality Engineer joins the Direct Revenue team to ensure high-quality end-to-end user experiences for paid consumer monetization features. This role focuses on high-risk cross-team journeys, release readiness, and non-functional qualities such as accessibility, privacy, and compliance rather than routine feature correctness. You will define test strategies for new premium experiences, build high-signal automation for critical paths, perform root cause analysis, and participate in on-call rotations. The role requires proficiency in object-oriented programming using Java, Kotlin, Swift, or Objective-C, along with experience in mobile test automation frameworks like XCTest, Appium, or Espresso. You will utilize tools such as Jira, GitHub, TestRail, and Postman while leveraging AI to enhance engineering workflows. Candidates must possess strong analytical thinking and experience managing quality within the software development life cycle for complex mobile applications across various devices.

What you'll do

  • Own quality for end-to-end Direct Revenue experiences across multiple teams and surfaces.
  • Define and drive the test strategy for new features and premium experiences.
  • Build and maintain high-signal automation for critical paths like accessibility, privacy, and compatibility.
  • Perform root cause analysis for defects and lead cross-functional triage to ensure resolution.
  • Utilize AI tools to accelerate development and improve engineering efficiency.
  • Manage release readiness and provide quality sign-off for your specific feature domain.
  • Review code and test pull requests to maintain high quality standards across platforms.
  • Map cross-team dependencies to identify and mitigate risks at integration points.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant technical field or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3+ years of post-Bachelor’s experience in software testing or development, or a Master's with 2+ years of experience, or a PhD.
  • Proficiency in object-oriented programming using Java, Kotlin, Swift, Objective-C, or similar languages.
  • Experience with mobile and client test automation frameworks such as XCTest, XCUITest, Selenium, Appium, or Espresso.
  • Expertise in building and maintaining test coverage for mobile applications across various smartphones and tablets.
  • Proficiency with engineering tools including Git, Jira, TestRail, Chrome DevTools, Charles Proxy, and Postman.
  • Experience using AI within an engineering workflow to improve efficiency and development speed.
  • Knowledge of quality-related agile methodologies and experience applying them throughout the software development life cycle.
