Job description



DESCRIPTION

In the Kindle Reader Engineering org, we inspire customers to read more and get more out of reading, every day on all their devices. We deliver experiences that make Kindle the “indispensable” way to read, so that once customers try it they can’t imagine reading any other way. We help people find more moments and more ways to discover and enjoy books, periodicals, and other content they love. We innovate and deliver features designed to acquire new customers, get more of them to buy and read their first book, and inspire them to read more books more often. We deliver a beautiful experience across devices that is functionally consistent and authentic to the devices it lives on. We build better and faster. We break projects into iteratively shippable MVPs, delivering them via consistent release trains. We invest in mechanisms to increase our velocity and quality, including making cross-OS development more efficient and less expensive. And we work with upstream and downstream partners to make integration more efficient and agile, empowering them to extend our experience.
Our Quality Assurance Engineers are part of building a delightful experience that we deliver to customers. The engineers have the opportunity to work with multiple stakeholders from product managers to beta customers. The features are cross-OS and the QA engineers carry the responsibility to test and deliver in these environments. They get opportunities to work on solving difficult test strategies along with the development team. We test on multiple surfaces as we support Kindle for Android, Kindle for iOS, and Kindle on Amazon Fire tablets. There is plenty of opportunity to work with multiple teams, collaborate and deliver.

Key responsibilities:
· Will work in an Agile/Scrum environment to deliver high quality software against schedules
·
· Evaluate product functionality and create test strategies and test cases to assess product quality
·
· Champion the quality of features in our development pipeline using both automated and manual tests, reporting and verifying defects, and signing-off on features and release candidates
·
· Drive quality initiatives and point out areas that require attention
·
· Be able to define success criteria broadly and deeply within the system
·
· Evaluating and integrate open source and in house developed toolsets
·
· Interpret and report testing results, and be a vocal proponent for quality in every phase of the development process.
