About Us

Two-wheelers are the most common way of commuting in India, with over 200 million registered two-wheelers — the largest such population in the world. At BluArmor, we fondly call this community the Great Indian Biking Class.

The automotive world is undergoing a revolution — modern cars are rapidly transforming into supercomputers on wheels, offering intelligence-driven, safer, and more enjoyable riding experiences. Two-wheelers are still catching up, and our vision is to accelerate this transition by delivering car-like intelligence to every rider.

Join us in building the future of intelligent mobility.

Role Overview

As a Manual & Automation QA Engineer, you will be responsible for ensuring the quality, reliability, and performance of our mobile applications and connected device ecosystem. You will design test strategies, build and maintain automated test suites, execute manual test cycles, and work closely with developers, product managers, and hardware teams to deliver a seamless and bug-free experience to riders.

This role is ideal for a hands-on QA professional who is comfortable owning quality end-to-end - from requirements review to release sign-off - across mobile apps, APIs, and device integrations.

Key Responsibilities

Quality Strategy & Planning

• Define and own the test strategy, test plan, and test cases for mobile apps (iOS/Android), backend APIs, and device integrations.
• Participate in requirement and design reviews to identify gaps, edge cases, and potential risks early in the lifecycle.
• Identify test coverage metrics and continuously improve them (functional, regression, performance, compatibility).

Manual Testing

• Design and execute detailed manual test cases/use cases for new features, enhancements, and bug fixes.
• Perform functional, regression, integration, usability, and exploratory testing across a wide range of devices, OS versions, and network conditions.
• Validate end-to-end user journeys including app–device–cloud interactions.
• Log clear, reproducible defects and work closely with developers to prioritize and resolve them.

Test Automation

• Design, develop, and maintain automated test suites for mobile applications and APIs.
• Build robust, reusable automation scripts for regression, smoke, and sanity test suites.
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines to enable continuous testing and faster feedback cycles.
• Monitor and maintain test stability and flakiness, and ensure accurate reporting of automation results.

Device & Connectivity Testing

• Test app interactions with smart peripheral devices over Bluetooth/BLE and other connectivity protocols.
• Validate real-time data streaming, visualization, and synchronization between device, app, and backend.
• Simulate and test various real-world conditions (intermittent connectivity, low battery, sensor issues, etc.).

Collaboration & Documentation

• Collaborate closely with mobile, backend, hardware, and product teams to understand features and define acceptance criteria.
• Provide clear quality status, risk assessment, and go/no-go inputs during releases.
• Maintain comprehensive documentation for test plans, test cases, automation coverage, and test reports.

Continuous Improvement

• Identify gaps in processes, tools, and test coverage and proactively recommend improvements.
• Stay updated on QA best practices, tools, and frameworks for mobile, API, and IoT testing.

Qualifications

Must-Have

• 3+ years of experience in software QA, with solid exposure to both manual and automation testing.
• Strong experience testing

  mobile applications

  (iOS and/or Android).
• Hands-on experience writing and executing test cases, test plans, and bug reports.
• Practical experience with one or more test automation frameworks/tools, such as:
• Mobile: Appium, Espresso, XCUITest or similar
• API: Postman, REST Assured, or similar
• Strong understanding of:
• QA methodologies, types, and best practices
• Functional, regression, integration, and system testing
• RESTful APIs and JSON-based communication
• Experience testing connectivity and hardware–software interfacing (e.g., Bluetooth/BLE, sensors, or IoT devices).
• Ability to work in fast-paced, cross-functional teams with strong ownership and attention to detail.
• Good communication skills and the ability to clearly articulate issues and risks.

Good to Have

• Experience in IoT, automotive, wearables, or connected peripherals ecosystem.
• Experience integrating test automation into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitLab CI, Jenkins, GitHub Actions).
• Knowledge of performance testing tools or techniques for mobile apps and APIs.
• Experience with test management tools (e.g., Jira, TestRail, Zephyr).
• Familiarity with scripting languages (Python/JavaScript/Java/Kotlin) for automation and tooling.

What You’ll Get

• Opportunity to own and shape the quality culture at a fast-growing mobility-tech company.
• Work on cutting-edge connected mobility solutions with real-world rider impact.
• Close collaboration with cross-functional experts across hardware, firmware, backend, and mobile.
• A culture that values ownership, learning, and continuous improvement, where your inputs can directly influence product quality and user experience.
