Job description

Quality Assurance EngineerRemote - Restricted to North AmericaAbout BraveBrave is on a mission to protect the human right to privacy online. We've built a free web browser that blocks creepy ads and trackers by default, a private search engine with a truly independent index, a browser-native crypto wallet, and a private ad network (opt-in!) that directly rewards you for your attention. And we're just getting started. Already 110 million people have switched to Brave for a faster, more private web. Millions more switch every month.

The internet is a sea of ads, hackers, and echo chambers. Big Tech makes huge profits off our data, and tells us what's true and what's not. Brave is fighting back. Join us!

Summary

Brave is looking for an experienced Quality Assurance Engineer to work on focusing on the quality of Brave's browser releases.  You'll work with various groups across Brave, cross cutting both functionality and departments.  This is a high profile and impactful, hands-on position that will require grit.  Work together with our developers and privacy/security experts to help us take our browser to the next level. 

Requirements
  • 5+ years experience with testing software
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
  • Experience in macOS, Windows, and various Linux distributions
  • Android and iOS experience
  • Experience with both Android Studio and Xcode
  • Experience using packet monitoring tools (Charles Proxy, Fiddler, Wireshark)
  • Familiarity with cryptocurrency wallets and ecosystem
  • Familiarity with latest AI trends and ecosystem
  • Experience with git and other command line tools
  • Comfortable working in an open source setting and with GitHub
  • A passion for helping protect users' privacy and security
  • Proven record of getting things done 
Working at Brave
  • Industry-leader in privacy, with a research and engineering team that's innovating everyday to keep people safer online and beat Big Tech
  • Highly competitive salaries & benefits, and generous home-office stipends
  • Fully remote team (no office, no commute)
  • Welcoming, humble, ridiculously smart teammates, and a truly flat org structure
  • Opportunity to get in early at a hyper-growth company, and revolutionize the web
  • Oh, and did we mention Brendan, our CEO & co-founder, invented JavaScript?

United States Candidates: The salary range for this role is $90,000 - $130,000 USD, depending on experience.
