Mobile QA Analyst

Vancouver & Remote • Pacific Time   |  Updated August 4, 2020

Steamclock is looking for a diligent and enthusiastic person here in Vancouver with experience testing user-facing software. If you have a track record of helping ship beautiful, high-quality software, we’d love to meet you!

Steamclock is a profitable and growing studio in Gastown that makes very nice apps. Our focus is shipping great products, and building the company we want to work at. We make apps for ourselves – such as our recent game, Two Spies – and products for interesting companies like Arc’teryx, WealthBar, and Mozilla.

Like any small company, you’ll have the chance to wear many hats, but in this role we’re looking for somebody who can be a champion for quality. We value people over process, and your skills and perspective will help us bring that to the next level.
