Since then, we have produced groundbreaking devices like Fire tablets, Fire TV, and Amazon Echo. What will you help us create?

Our Multimedia QA team works to ensure multimedia FireOS components - audio, video, and DRM are bug-free on Amazon’s FireTV devices.

The team also works on various developer tools and media players to better enable Amazon’s partners in their quest to develop applications for these devices.

The ultimate goal is to ensure Amazon’s customers have the best possible multimedia experience across all applications and devices produced by Amazon.

Achieving this means working closely with our external / internal partners and multimedia developers owning audio, video, and DRM components in FireOS.

they are able to understand software internals, debug problems using log files, and write automated tests with Python / JavaScript and / or user-level test automation tools.

Software QA Engineers work with Software Development Engineers to understand features and technical implementations. They also collaborate with Product Management, User Experience Design, and Customer Support to understand customer usage models and develop test plans and test suites that approximate real-world environments and regression tests.

Software QA Engineers are responsible for driving the software development process toward quality-centric methodologies.
