QA Automation Developer - Mobile

At MEDFAR, we are shaping the future of digital healthcare by delivering seamless, high-performance mobile experiences for providers and patients. As a Mobile QA Analyst, you will be the quality conscience of our cross-functional development team, embedding excellence into every stage of the SDLC. You won't just find bugs; you will define test documentation using a risk-based approach that empower our developers and Product Owners to ship with confidence.

We are looking for a proactive problem-solver who is as comfortable diving into the technical details of the mobile app lifecycle as they are collaborating on user story refinements to stop defects before they are even coded.

You bring technical expertise, a strong sense of ownership, and a collaborative mindset that contribute to building stable, high-quality products.

Responsibilities

• Manage test cases: Create and maintain comprehensive test cases, test scripts, and test plans. These will be used by developers and product owners, empowering them to identify missing user flows, execute tests and validate critical flows based on the documentation provided.

• Drive quality across the SDLC: Work closely with developers, and Product Owners as a full member of the development team, to ensure quality throughout the entire development lifecycle. Identify quality risks and work with the team to mitigate them.

• Review developer tasks and user stories: Ensure that developer tasks and user stories are well-written, contain all necessary information, and adhere to quality standards.

• Conduct Manual Testing: Conduct risk-based manual testing of iOS and Android mobile applications  and mobile integration with backend services to identify defects, inconsistencies and improvement opportunities, prioritizing high-risk areas.

• Document and Communicate: Clearly document and communicate risks, testing results, issues with clear reproduction steps and impact analysis, and observations to the development team, enabling timely resolution.

Contribute to our team with your strengths:

• Proven Experience: 3+ years in a QA role within an Agile environment, with deep expertise in functional, regression, and exploratory testing across iOS and Android platforms.

• Technical Proficiency: Strong hands-on experience with API testing (e.g., Postman) and a solid understanding of Web SaaS architectures and iOS and Android mobile ecosystems. Experience using debugging proxy and network inspection tools (e.g., Charles Proxy, Fiddler, Proxyman) to analyze mobile traffic and validate integrations. Experience using cloud-based platforms such as BrowserStack (or equivalent) for cross-device and cross-OS testing.

• Mobile Testing Expertise: Hands-on experience testing iOS and Android mobile applications, including validation of mobile-specific user flows, gestures, permissions, push notifications, background/foreground behavior, and interruption scenarios (calls, notifications). Strong knowledge of app lifecycle and release process, permissions, and common mobile-specific defects.

• Test Design Mastery: Skilled in creating comprehensive test plans, scripts, and scenarios that ensure full coverage of complex user flows across web and mobile.

• SDLC Expertise: Thorough understanding of the SDLC and STLC, with the ability to review user stories and identify quality risks before development begins.

• Analytical Problem-Solving: Exceptional attention to detail and a quality-driven mindset, with the ability to document and triage defects (including logs and crash reports) with high precision.

• Collaboration & Mindset: Strong communication and collaboration skills, with a curious, proactive mindset and a continuous focus on improving processes and overall product quality.

• Remote work and flexibility (supporting work-life balance)

• RRSP contribution

• Healthcare insurance from day one

• Paid time off: 3 weeks + 1 additional week between Christmas and New Year

• Annual training allowance ($1,500) to support your professional development

• An onboarding program to help you get familiar with our environment and the digital healthcare field

• All IT equipment is provided, with additional gear if needed

• Internal growth opportunities (promotions, internal mobility)

• Support from a wellness and social committee, with initiatives to foster team cohesion, mental health, and employee well-being

• A company culture focused on transparency, collaboration, and innovation

• Join a dynamic and innovative environment where your work has a real and wide-reaching impact, helping to modernize healthcare in Canada and internationally
