We are seeking a highly skilled JavaScript-focused QA Engineer with strong SDK testing experience and hands-on expertise in manual and exploratory testing. This role is heavily focused on functional QA, but we are looking for someone who is familiar with automation concepts - or eager to grow in that direction.

Design, review, and enhance test cases for both domestic and international use cases. Create and execute release regression test verification for code deployments and app store submissions. Develop out-of-the-box test scenarios using market-specific knowledge and product behavior. Participate in daily Agile ceremonies and collaborate with remote/offshore teams. Support triage processes for live production issues; identify severity, impact, and prioritization. Document, track, and manage bugs through lifecycle using Jira or similar tools. Partner with cross-functional teams to ensure applications are thoroughly tested from an end-user perspective (E2E, UAT). Required Qualifications 5+ years of QA experience, including web, mobile, and OTT application testing. Strong JavaScript testing background, particularly around SDK validation. SDK testing experience is required. Gherkin and Cucumber experience is required. Experience with test management tools (TestRail, Xray, Quality Center, Jira, Confluence). Experience testing dynamic web applications and connected device/OTT platforms (tvOS, Roku, Fire TV, Android TV, gaming consoles, etc.). Experience with REST API testing tools such as Postman or SOAPUI. Knowledge of video playback, DRM, CDN, SSL, firewalls, and streaming technologies. Proficiency with Charles Proxy, Splunk, or other logging/debugging tools.

Experience with mobile automation (BrowserStack, Appium, Espresso). Understanding of DevOps concepts (pipelines, CI/CD preferred). Previous work with desktop, mobile, or OTT development/support. Strong interest in software development and continuous technical growth. Ability to self-manage, prioritize, and execute under tight deadlines.
