Lead QA Automation Engineer - A Hollywood focused startup

Indee Inc. , Bengaluru · indee.tv · Full-time employment · Programming

If you love small teams that create outsize changes in our world, you’ll love Indee. Indee helps the largest Hollywood studios and production companies test and promote their shows and movies securely before they release. Think of us as SSL for unreleased movies and TV shows. Our clients include film companies from around the world including 20th Century Fox, IM Global, Reliance Entertainment and hundreds of productions like Hacksaw Ridge and Silence from 2017s Oscar Nominees. We are funded and have a healthy burn rate.

Indee is looking for QA Engineers to use their abilities to tear down and shred our delightful features and code base as we rapidly scale our product and organization.  Our stack uses Python, Django, VueJS, Postgres and AWS and Linux.  Expertise in automated testing these areas is a huge plus, but not necessary. We are looking for engineers that understand that simplicity and reliability are aspects of a system to be carefully calculated with every decision made. We’re a collaborative team who genuinely enjoy working together.

Ideal fit will be someone who:

- Can keep our customers’ usability as top priority

- Experience with Automated testing, REST API testing and Functional testing

- Can break things (who cannot love that?) and identify the bugs

- Has uncompromising test quality with ridiculous attention to detail

- Have worked with Complex Product architecture with multiple components integration

- Expert at Black/white box testing, Usability testing, Incremental integration testing, Load and Performance testing

- Programming experience with Selenium Webdriver or similar tool (preferably Python and Javascript)

- Some experience with Scraping and Shell scripting would be an added advantage.

Skills and Responsibilities:

We are performance driven and expect you to constantly monitor and make suggestions to improve our app's performance

We follow extreme programming and ship to production multiple times a week, so automated testing is crucial

You will also be managing the workflow of tickets preparing them for testing

You are the developer’s buddy, work closely and ideate with them to ensure great UX

Testing and approving every app update before it goes live

Security is crucial - You understand security concepts deeply and write code to protect us and our users

Writing and automating all the test cases

You ship fast. Speed is in your blood. Except when you are driving in Bangalore.

We’d like to think of ourselves as humble masters of our own domains and would expect the same from you

Importantly, the testing team is responsible for constantly getting us the best biryani in town, so we hope you have finely honed taste buds.

Engineering at Indee:

At Indee, everyone’s an engineer at heart. We were founded by engineers and it shows. If you love to work with designers and marketing teams that follow a numbers based approach to everything  - you’ll love our team. We take great pride in our work, and identify strongly with the following characteristics:

We're leaders who love to speak and write about our work, you will be working with a small and very competent team.

A core part of our engineering culture is inclusiveness: We want to accommodate people from all backgrounds, we love the misfits and the geeks, the quiet achievers and the obsessive freaks.

We ship fast. Whatever the devs decide to build on Monday is likely to be available to the world by Friday. Our sprints are short and very fast.
