Position Responsibilities

We are looking for a QA Engineer specialising in Mobile and API quality —spanning functional automation and performance testing. This is not a role where you write test cases for someone else to review. This is a role where you own the quality signal for our most critical user-facing and backend surfaces. You will be the person who catches what code review misses,surfaces performance regressions before customers do, and ensures our mobile and API layers behave correctly under real-world conditions.

What You Will Own

• Mobile test automation across iOS and Android (functional, regression, edge case coverage)
• API test automation: contract validation, integration flows, error path coverage
• Performance testing strategy and execution for mobile app and API surfaces (load, stress, latency baselines)
• Integration of mobile and API tests into the CI/CD pipeline
• Ownership of performance baselines and alerting thresholds
• Bug quality: clear, reproducible, well-evidenced defect reports that engineers can act on without follow-up
• Collaboration with mobile engineers and backend engineers to review API contracts and flag quality risks early

What This Role Is Not

• This is not a purely manualtesting role
• This is not a role where performance testing is "run once before launch and forgotten"
• This is not a role where you wait to be handed test cases—you derive them from requirements and your own risk analysis
• This is not a role where API testing means running Postman collections someone else wrote
• If you are looking for a role with pre-written test plans, defined scripts, and a clear execution queue, this role will not be a fit

• Hands-on experience with mobile test automation (Appium, Detox, XCUITest, Espresso, or Flutter Driver)
• Solid API test automation experience (REST-assured, Postman/Newman, Karate, Playwright API, or equivalent)
• Practical experience with performance testing tools (k6, JMeter, Locust, or Gatling)
• Ability to read and interpret API contracts (OpenAPI/Swagger) and identify coverage gaps
• Comfortable writing automation code in at least one language (Python, TypeScript, Dart, Java, or Kotlin)
• Understanding of mobile performance metrics: app launch time, frame rate, memoryand battery usage

Required Leadership Skills

• Ability to identify and communicate quality risks proactively — not just after a bug is found
• Strong enough technical depth to have credibility with mobile and backend engineers
• Comfort working directly with Product and Engineering during sprint planning to flag testability concerns early
• Self-directed: able to assess what needs testing most and prioritise without being told
• Clear written communication —yourdefectreports andtest reports should require minimal follow-up

Experience Requirements

• 4‒7+ years in QA engineering with a mobile or API automation focus
• Demonstrated experience building or owning an API or mobile test suite (not just contributing to one)
• Experience with performance testing in a product environment (not just synthetic benchmarks)
• Familiarity with both iOS and Android platforms.

Nice to Have

• Flutter or Dart experience
• Experience testing GraphQL APIs or event-driven / async systems
• Exposure to observability tooling (Datadog, Grafana, or similar) for correlating performance test results
• Experience in F&B, delivery, or high-transaction consumer applications
• Understanding of backend architecture sufficient to design meaningful load scenarios

Who Will Succeed in This Role
You will thrive here if you:

• Think about edge cases that weren't in the spec and test them anyway
• Care about performance not as a benchmark exercise but as a real user experience concern
• Are comfortable going deep on a failing test to understand why it fails, not just that it does
• Build test coverage that reflects actual user risk, not just line coverage or case counts
• Want your work to make engineers more confident, not create more gates and friction

a Necessity, not a Luxury
