QA Test Engineer (Manual + Automation)

Company Overview

At Bridgenext, we engineer Growth Operating Systems. Most enterprises have spent millions on their revenue stack and still aren't seeing the growth they expected.They have tools that function, but no system that wins. We help growth-hungry companies close that gap by turning fragmented platforms, siloed teams, and disconnected data into one integrated Growth OS. More than a technology company or marketing agency, we're a global digital consultancy with experts in engineering, data, AI, creative and more.

Our teams are made up of experts who believe in engineering impact, starting with putting people at the center of everything we do. Every team member directly shapes our work, culture, and values. Nothing matters more to us than a kind, respectful, fulfilling environment that supports everyone. Our flexible, inclusive culture gives you the autonomy, resources, and opportunities to thrive.

Position Description

We are building a lightweight, configurable browser that fully exposes Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to the web layer through published APIs, so builders can connect devices and ship web experiences without extra gatekeeping. The product is moving toward App Store submission and regular releases to the client's global team. We need one dedicated QA Test Engineer to own test execution on every build, verify fixes before they reach the client, and automate the checks we repeat each release. Defects arrive from two directions: our internal test passes (tracked in Jira) and the client's global team (tracked in Azure DevOps). This role works across both.

Responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Test every build. Run functional, regression and smoke tests before each release to the client, and record results in writing.
• Test on real devices. Execute Bluetooth pairing, connection, disconnection and reconnection scenarios (for example reconnecting after the app is killed and reopened, Bluetooth off/on, pairing timeout) on physical iPhones, Android devices and test hardware, including multi-device and multi-tab cases. Emulator-only results are not enough.
• Cover the core areas. Pairing and device list, connection prompts, BLE web API behavior, configurable browser UI (address bar, full screen), device features, onboarding, login and account, and privacy, EULA and analytics flows.
• Verify fixes and manage defects. Retest against the exact build and steps reported, then update the ticket with outcome, build number and evidence. Follow the team's title convention ([Platform] Area - Symptom), states and tags.
• Handle client-reported defects. Reproduce issues raised in Azure DevOps, request steps, video, logs or device/firmware details when missing, and return a clear reproducible or not-reproducible result.
• Separate cause from symptom. Help determine whether an issue sits in our app, the web layer or the underlying SDK, and record the evidence. Do not assume the source.
• Run and interpret the client test suite. Run the client's Bluetooth/web API test suite on our builds and classify failures as real defects, out-of-scope items or test-case problems.
• Automate repeat checks. Build and maintain automated smoke and regression tests for stable flows, and run them in the build pipeline where possible.
• Maintain test assets and support releases. Keep test cases, a dated regression checklist and release-readiness notes current; contribute to release notes and known-issues lists.
