Senior QA Engineer - Next-Gen SaaS Video Streaming

We're hiring a QA Engineer for a Vancouver-based startup building next-generation SaaS infrastructure for video streaming. The company recently secured additional funding and is in a significant growth phase, investing heavily in product and engineering as they scale their multi-platform streaming platform across web, mobile, and TV. This is an opportunity to step into a strategic QA role at a business sitting at the intersection of video infrastructure, multi-platform complexity, and enterprise SaaS.

This is not a traditional QA execution role. The company is looking for someone who can help define quality strategy, shape testing approaches for a complex multi-platform product, work closely with engineering and customers to ensure the platform delivers reliable experiences, and influence how quality thinking evolves as the product scales. You'll be joining at a stage where many of the biggest technical decisions are still ahead—around performance, reliability, and how quality gates the roadmap. The team is solving complex streaming and platform challenges, and they're looking for someone who can translate those challenges into testable, measurable quality criteria. You'll partner directly with engineering leadership and play a meaningful role in how the platform evolves.
