Job Description: Senior Tester – Android Foundations

Location : Remote

Job Type : Contract 2 Hire

Role Overview

We are seeking a Senior Tester with deep experience in testing Android foundational libraries, SDKs, and shared frameworks. The ideal candidate has a strong technical testing background and understands how platform-level components impact security, scalability, performance, and observability across multiple Android applications.

You will play a critical role in validating the reliability, safety, and robustness of core Android components that are reused across products and teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and execute test strategies for Android foundational libraries and shared frameworks
• Validate platform components with strong focus on:
• Security and data protection
• Scalability and concurrency
• Performance, stability, and resource usage
• Observability, logging, and monitoring accuracy
• Perform in-depth testing of:
• Authentication and authorization flows
• Secure storage and encryption mechanisms
• Logging, metrics, tracing, and analytics instrumentation
• Execute performance, load, stress, and endurance testing for Android libraries and SDKs
• Test behavior under edge cases such as:
• Network loss and recovery
• High concurrency scenarios
• Low-memory and low-battery conditions
• Design and maintain automated test suites (unit, integration, and API-level tests)
• Collaborate closely with Android engineers, Tech Leads, and Architects during design and development phases
• Review technical designs from a testability, risk, and quality perspective
• Identify, document, and track defects with clear reproduction steps and impact analysis
• Drive continuous improvement in testing frameworks, tools, and practices

Required Skills & Experience

• 8+ years of software testing experience, with strong focus on Android or mobile platforms
• Proven experience testing Android libraries, SDKs, or shared frameworks (not just UI-level app testing)
• Strong understanding of Android architecture, lifecycle, and system behaviors
• Hands-on experience testing:
• Security features (encryption, secure storage, authentication flows)
• Performance and scalability under load
• Logging, monitoring, and analytics pipelines
• Experience with test automation tools and frameworks such as:
• JUnit, Espresso, Robolectric, Mockito (or similar)
• Experience validating telemetry using observability tools such as:
• Datadog
• LogRocket
• Similar monitoring platforms
• Solid understanding of REST APIs and backend integration testing
• Ability to analyze logs, metrics, and traces to identify systemic issues

Nice to Have

• Experience testing offline-first or resilient mobile architectures
