The product & your role 💭 You’ll be working on a fast-growing social discovery mobile app designed to help people - mainly teenagers - connect, make friends, and build real social connections in a safe and engaging environment. The product is highly interactive and UI-driven, with real-time user interactions, social mechanics, and a strong focus on experience. It’s used daily by a young, active audience, which means quality, stability, and trust matter a lot - even small issues are felt immediately by users. The team is small, product-focused, and moves fast. There’s very little formal documentation, so QA is deeply involved in understanding how the product behaves, spotting gaps early, and shaping quality standards as the product evolves. This is a hands-on, high-impact QA role . You’ll own quality end-to-end and work closely with engineers, designers, and product partners to make sure every release feels smooth, intuitive, and reliable. We’re not looking for someone who just executes test cases. We want someone who thinks like a user, asks the right questions, and takes real ownership of product quality 🚀 What you’ll be doing Owning product quality across mobile and web Designing and running test scenarios that reflect real user behavior Performing regression, smoke, and exploratory testing Validating APIs and integrations to ensure smooth end-to-end flows Identifying edge cases, documenting issues clearly, and following them through Improving testing practices as the product and team scale Collaborating closely across teams - QA here is part of the build process, not an afterthought What you'll need to succeed: 5+ years of experience in QA , with a strong focus on mobile testing At least 2 years of hands-on web testing experience Hands-on experience testing complex, consumer-facing mobile apps Experience working with data-heavy, feature-rich products Familiarity with tools like Jira, Postman, Swagger (or similar) A sharp eye for detail, paired with strong prioritization skills An ownership mindset - you don’t wait to be told what to test You ask great questions, raise flags early, and love clear communication You care about the product , not just the test plan You’ll thrive here if you: Enjoy ownership without heavy process or bureaucracy Like working closely with teams but also value focused, independent work Can zoom out to see the product as a whole, then zoom in on details See QA as a strategic role , not a support function Want to work on a product with real users, real scale, and real momentum Care deeply about getting things right - and improving them over time The interview process 🪜 Intro call with our People team (45 min) Technical deep-dive with our QA Engineer (60 min) Meeting with Tech Lead (45 min) Final conversation with our CTO (45 min) 🚀 We move fast and flex around your availability.
