We are looking for an Automation QA Engineer (Web/Admin) to join our live-streaming platform team.
Our live-streaming platform connects 400K+ monthly active users through live events, interactive video experiences, and real-time community features. The QA team is at the core of how we ship fast and ship right: you'll be joining a squad of 13 QA specialists across platforms and backend, working closely with 4 development teams and their tech leads. Web automation is the next frontier we're actively building out — and this role is where that happens. If you care about test architecture, not just test coverage, and want to see your work directly impact a product used by hundreds of thousands of real users, this is the right move.
About our product: We are building one of the most powerful live-streaming platforms, already connecting 400K+ monthly active users through live events, interactive video chats, and real-time community experiences. Our mission is bold: bring joy, fight loneliness, and deliver safe, ad-free entertainment that keeps people coming back. This is a complex, fast-moving space, and we love it that way. We are among the Top 5 streaming products in the US and rank in the Top 10 worldwide. Our next milestone: break into the global Top 5, and we are moving fast to make it happen.
