We are looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer who will help us build and scale reliable automated testing for our mobile and web products.

Key responsibilities

Test Automation

  • Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins)
  • Improve and maintain the existing test automation infrastructure, including a custom Detox service layer

Strategy & Prioritization

  • Define the automation strategy: what should be automated, at which level (unit, integration, E2E), and in what order
  • Select and implement tools and frameworks for test automation
  • Monitor test reliability and investigate flaky tests to improve stability

Mentoring & Knowledge Sharing

  • Help manual QA engineers transition to automation through workshops, code reviews, and pair programming
  • Create guidelines, templates, and best practices for writing automated tests
  • Build a culture where automation is a shared responsibility across the QA team

Required experience

Must Have

  • 3+ years of experience in test automation for mobile and web applications
  • Hands-on experience with test environment setup and configuration in complex CI/CD pipelines
    • Mobile: test app variants, signing certificates, simulators
    • Web: headless browsers in CI, cross-browser testing, SSR-related challenges
  • Strong experience with JavaScript / TypeScript (our stack is fully JS-based: React, React Native, Detox)
  • Experience with Detox or Appium for mobile E2E testing
  • Experience with Playwright or Cypress for web E2E testing
  • Experience integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions and/or Jenkins)
  • Solid Git workflow skills (branching, pull requests, code reviews)
  • Experience validating analytics events (event firing, payload schema validation, analytics endpoint delivery)
  • Ability to make independent architectural decisions regarding test automation

Nice to Have

  • Understanding of React Native at a level sufficient to read application code and create stable selectors
  • Experience with visual regression testing (Percy, Chromatic, or similar tools)
  • Experience with React Testing Library / Jest for component testing
  • Experience with REST API test automation (Postman/Newman, Supertest, or similar)
  • Experience working with A/B testing frameworks and feature flags, including testing multiple experiment variants
  • Experience mentoring or training engineers
  • Music background as a big plus
