Description
As part of the Frameworks QA team, you will be responsible for testing various new and existing developer features/frameworks that are exposed to 3rd party developers via iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs. You will help accomplish this by testing various internal test applications to ensure they function properly when a new feature is released and after every OS update thereafter. In this role, you will drive all aspects of quality and process improvements to help the team ensure that our features are rock-solid and ready to be released to our developers and customers. Some of our key responsibilities include evaluating the quality of the SDKs and various developers features and executing test passes against various internal test apps. You will debug and report issues encountered during testing, and help triage the team’s daily automation results. You will also work with other engineers, on and outside the team, to determine if issues need to be resolved in the test app or in OS itself.
