Software Development Engineer in Test

Location:
Las Vegas, NV (Onsite)

Company:

is building the first family-focused digital pet + savings platform, combining mobile gaming, positive habit-building, and financial wellness. Our engineering team is primarily in China, and our product/leadership team is in the U.S. We're looking for a hands-on SDET to be the quality lead in our Las Vegas office.

This is a high-ownership role. You'll be the person who makes sure what we ship is fast, stable, and delightful for families.

What You'll Do

• Lead all testing for our React Native mobile app and Go backend services.
• Build and maintain automated test frameworks (E2E, integration, regression, API).
• Set up and manage automation tools (Detox, Appium, Playwright, Postman/Newman, CI pipelines).
• Work closely with the U.S. product team and China engineering team to ensure smooth releases across time zones.
• Write scripts, tools, and small utilities to speed up development and testing.
• Investigate bugs, reproduce issues reliably, and help pinpoint root causes.
• Contribute lightweight coding support when needed (TypeScript for RN, basic Go debugging).
• Own the release validation process for iOS TestFlight builds.
• Help shape our testing culture, standards, and long-term QA automation strategy.

What We're Looking For

• BS or MS in Computer Science from a U.S. 4-year university.

• Solid coding ability in

• Experience testing
  mobile apps
  , ideally React Native.
• Experience with
  Detox
  ,
  Appium
  , or other mobile automation tools.
• Strong skills in API testing and backend validation.
• Comfort reading Go code (no need to be a Go developer, but you should not be afraid of it).
• Experience working in fast-moving startup environments where people wear multiple hats.
• Bilingual Chinese/English is strongly preferred due to close collaboration with our China engineering team.
• Enjoys taking ownership of problems and closing the loop.

Nice to Have

• Experience building CI/CD automation (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab, etc.)
• Prior experience in game testing, fintech apps, or consumer mobile products
• Familiarity with iOS release pipelines
• Understanding of performance/load testing tools (k6, Locust)

Why This Role Is Special

You're not coming in as "just QA."

You are the
quality gatekeeper
, the bridge between two engineering cultures, and the person who keeps our product sharp as we grow.

If you enjoy autonomy, direct impact, and solving complicated mobile + backend quality challenges, this role gives you the room to do your best work.
