Job summary

Resident Advisor is seeking a Senior QA Engineer to own quality across ra.co, our iOS and Android apps, and RA Scan—the promoter app used at the door. You’ll collaborate with five product teams, grow automated testing, and test high-risk releases such as payments and checkout.

You’ll use AI tools to improve test creation, maintain healthy CI pipelines, and help teams ship reliable software for live events and venues.

Qualifications

• Several years in QA or test engineering, typically four or more, testing web and mobile products
• Hands-on test automation: you've built and maintained automated tests that run in CI, for web (for example Playwright, Cypress or Selenium) and ideally mobile. We use XCUITest on iOS and Espresso with Kotlin on Android
• Enough coding to write and fix tests alongside developers, in a language such as JavaScript, TypeScript, Kotlin or Swift
• You can test APIs and check data with SQL
• Good judgement about risk: what to test deeply, what lightly, and what not at all
• You've used AI tools in your testing work, and know where they help and where they don't
• Clear writing: bug reports and test plans other people can act on

Responsibilities

• Keep the web end-to-end test suite healthy: fix flaky tests, add coverage for new features, and make sure a failing suite gets fixed quickly
• Grow automated testing for our iOS and Android apps and RA Scan with the app developers, so mobile tests run on every change
• Test high-risk releases yourself, such as payments and checkout, including edge cases and what happens when things fail
• Review the test plans teams write, and help them improve
• Use AI tools to write and maintain tests, help developers do the same, and check what the tools produceli
• Brief our external testing partner and review the results they send back
• Report bugs clearly, and follow them through with developers and product managers
• Track a few simple measures, such as bugs that reach production and how reliable the automated tests are
