QA Engineer, Automation + Manual Testing

Om jobbet

Join us in building a product that gives children a strong start in school. At Albert Group, a leading European edTech company, we're expanding our product portfolio - and we want you on that journey.

We're looking for a pragmatic QA Engineer to join our Junior app team. You'll work in a collaborative environment with real impact on quality, helping shape QA in a setup combining React Native and Unity.

This is a hands-on role with a balanced focus on automation and manual testing, where you'll contribute broadly and influence how we build quality at scale.

Our product is aReact Native applicationwithUnity gameplay codeintegrated through a custom-built bridge. This creates a technically interesting QA environment across app flows, APIs, integrations, and gameplay experiences.

We are looking for someone who can both strengthen and extend our automation efforts and bring a structured, thoughtful approach to manual testing. A key part of the role is helping us shape and improve our approach toUnity gameplay testing and automation, which is an area we want to strengthen significantly.

What you will do

• Work closely with developers, product managers, designers, and other stakeholders to understand features, requirements, and risk areas
• Design, build, maintain, and improve automated tests across relevant levels such as integration, API, and end-to-end
• Evaluate and evolve our current automation approach for React Native
• Explore, propose, and help establish practical approaches for Unity gameplay testing and automation, including what should be automated, what should be tested manually, and how to build confidence in gameplay quality over time
• Perform hands-on manual testing of new features, regression areas, edge cases, user journeys, and gameplay flows
• Create and maintain test scenarios, test charters, checklists, regression suites, and lightweight test documentation
• Use exploratory testing and risk-based thinking to uncover issues that automated tests are unlikely to catch
• Help define how automated and manual QA should work together effectively across the product
• Investigate bugs thoroughly, document findings clearly, and work closely with the team to drive resolution
• Support release quality through structured test planning, regression testing, and quality sign-off input
• Contribute to CI/CD test execution and help enable reliable local test execution for developers
• Help improve QA ways of working, test strategy, coverage visibility, and overall quality culture in the team

Tech stack and context

• App: React Native, TypeScript
• Gameplay: Unity, C#
• Current automation: Maestro
• CI/CD: GitHub Actions
• Backend/API integrations: relevant parts included in test scope

At Albert, we believe learning should be engaging, accessible, and fun, and you'll play a key role in turning that belief into impactful product decisions.

We are looking for someone who combines technical QA capability with strong product sense and a practical testing mindset.

You likely bring several of the following:

• Proven experience working as a QA Engineer, Software Tester, or QA Automation Engineer
• Strong experience in test automation, ideally in mobile app environments
• Hands-on experience with tools and frameworks for automated testing, such as Detox or similar
• Solid experience with manual testing as a core part of the role
• Ability to design and execute exploratory testing, structured regression testing, scenario-based testing, and release testing
• Experience creating test plans, test cases, checklists, test charters, and lightweight quality documentation
• Good understanding of risk-based testing and how to prioritise testing where it matters most
• Experience testing APIs, integrations, and end-to-end user flows
• Familiarity with React Native applications is a strong plus
• Interest in or experience with Unity, and strong thinking around how gameplay can be tested in a smart, scalable, and practical way
• Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines
• Strong communication and collaboration skills
• A pragmatic mindset with the ability to balance speed, quality, and business needs

Extra appreciated

We welcome candidates who actively use modern tools, including AI, to work smarter. This could mean anything from accelerating test design and documentation to improving analysis, debugging, and QA workflows. We value practical judgement more than hype.
