About GoJoe

GoJoe is the AI-powered health intelligence platform for global enterprise. It brings every health benefit into one place, routes people to the help they need, and rewards healthier living. Leaders get a live view of workforce health across every market. Employees get a better experience. Employers get better return on the money they already spend.

Know more. Spend smarter. Perform better.

We are deployed in 150+ countries and trusted by global organisations including Diageo, McLaren Automotive, Heineken, NatWest and PwC. We are ISO 27001 certified, GDPR compliant and HIPAA-aligned, and our AI is developed alongside researchers at Stanford University.

We are experiencing significant growth with US-headquartered global enterprise, and we are building the engineering team to match it.

The Opportunity

Releases need a reliable automated gate. Every build should pass automated checks that run as part of the deployment pipeline before it is promoted to production. Each build triggers the tests automatically, and a failing check blocks the release.

This role exists to build it. You will own the QA stage of the deployment pipeline and the end-to-end test suites behind it, across our React Native (Expo) mobile app and our web platform.

Quality matters here more than it does in most products. Users in 150+ countries log activity across 80+ weighted types and the leading wearables, and that data drives points, rewards and health scores. If it is wrong, someone is treated unfairly.

We are hiring a DevOps/Platform Engineer. They build and run the deployment pipeline; you build the automated tests that run inside it and decide whether a build can be promoted. The two of you will define where that line falls in your first weeks.

What makes this different

• Build the gate from scratch: the automated QA stage is yours to design, not a suite to maintain
• Engineering, not manual testing: automation and tooling as first-class work
• Mobile and web: The React Native (Expo) app alongside the web platform, on real devices and real data
• Scale that matters: 150+ countries, 80+ activity types, the major device ecosystems
• Remote-first: flexible, async-friendly working in a distributed team

The Role

You will build the QA stage of our deployment pipeline so that passing results for a specific version are required before it goes to production, and write the end-to-end tests that make that gate meaningful.

You will go deep enough on the product to design scenarios that cover real-world edge cases and failure modes, not just the happy path - the ways real users and real devices actually misbehave.

What you'll do

• Build the QA stage of the deployment pipeline: so passing results for a version are required before promotion to production
• Write and maintain E2E tests: for the mobile app (iOS and Android, React Native with Expo) and the web apps
• Set up repeatable test data: and the environments to run it in
• Cover what matters: smoke, integration and critical user-journey checks
• Propose a test strategy: with options, and document how it works
• Safeguard data accuracy: activity tracking, points scoring and reward logic, correct and fair
• Root-cause defects: and build the tooling that stops recurring problems recurring

Who You Are

You think like an engineer, not a manual tester. You would rather build a script or a tool than repeat a check by hand, and you care about why something broke rather than only that it did.

You understand a product well enough to know where it is likely to fail, and you design for that. You communicate clearly, work well autonomously in a distributed team, and use AI tools to work faster.

What We're Looking For

Essential

• Programming: strong skills, and experience building maintainable test automation. Language-agnostic
• Mobile E2E: practical experience with Maestro, Detox, Appium or similar
• Web E2E: practical experience with Playwright, Cypress or similar
• CI/CD: running tests inside pipelines, as a release gate
• Test strategy: able to propose options, choose between them and document the result
• Communication: clear written communicator in an async-first team

Preferred

• React Native and Expo: testing apps built on them
• Wearables and health data: testing device integrations or activity data
• Performance and security: exposure to load testing or security-testing basics
• Compliance: familiarity with GDPR, HIPAA or ISO 27001 considerations
• Domain: interest or background in health, fitness or wellbeing products

What's On Offer

• Contractor basis:you invoice us; tax and contributions are yours to handle
• Leave: 25 days a year, plus recognised public holidays
• Fully remote: work from anywhere. We hire mainly in Romania, and consider strong applicants worldwide
• Equipment: full remote set-up provided
• Scope: the automated release gate is yours to design from scratch, and to own
• Work that matters: a product measurably improving people's health and wellbeing
