• Assist with the validation of builds for the App Store and Google Play Store to ensure smooth deployments
• Participate in technical discussions and refinement sessions to ensure requirements are testable and clear
• Prioritise competing demands and manage multiple concurrent tasks while adapting to changing priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Proactively problem solving, identifying and confidently mitigating any risks, issues or control weaknesses that arise in your day-to-day
What we’re looking for
• Minimum 3+ years of technical experience in a QA or Software Engineering role
• Proven hands-on experience testing React Native applications and understanding the nuances of cross-platform mobile development
• Minimum 2–3 years of mobile app automation experience using tools such as Maestro, Detox, or similar frameworks
• Strong programming abilities and debugging skills, with a sharp eye for detail in both manual exploratory testing and automated scripts
• Familiarity with mobile debugging tools (e.g., React Native Debugger) and crash reporting tools like Firebase
• Ability to test and validate REST APIs and understand their interaction with the mobile front-end
• Experience working within a continuous delivery environment and a solid understanding of build pipelines and Agile practices
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to function as a strong team player and explain technical bugs to both engineers and stakeholders
