About this role

RealityMine has been a pioneer in delivering data-driven insights to the media and market research industries for over a decade. Our platform provides unique and actionable data solutions to top brands and partners worldwide, empowering them to make informed, strategic decisions.

We're looking for a detail-oriented Test Engineer to join our Data Products team. You'll systematically explore mobile and desktop applications, using our in-house tooling to identify, capture, and validate key data points. The role sits at the intersection of QA and data - you'll define what to capture from app sessions and ensure it is extracted accurately and reliably.

You'll work closely with the wider team to build and manage a library of test scenarios, supporting ongoing development and regression testing. You'll also document coverage and findings clearly, helping maintain the quality and reliability of our data extraction workflows.

This internship offers a unique opportunity to develop skills at the intersection of QA and data, working with AI-assisted internal tooling. You'll gain hands-on experience with mobile and desktop platforms while contributing to real-world data solutions used by top brands.

Keen interest or willingness working with AI and AI-assisted tools

Responsibilities

Systematically exercise applications across Android, iOS, and desktop platforms, following defined scenarios and discovering new paths

Author and maintain structured data definitions using our AI-assisted internal tooling - specifying what to capture and how to validate it
Verify output accuracy by comparing captured data against expected results across a range of app states and scenarios
Maintain and update definitions as applications change, identifying and resolving breakages
Build and manage a library of test scenarios to support ongoing development and regression testing
Document coverage and findings clearly for the wider team
