• Verifying complex business flows and state machines: task reservation and expiry, quotas and campaign auto-stop, submission statuses, review and rework cycles, labeling consensus, and buyer isolation between segments.
• Ensuring correctness of money and compliance flows: accruals, balances, payout batches and reconciliation, consent versioning and withdrawal, data erasure, and audit trails for every action.

• Experience testing financial flows: accruals, balances, batch payouts, reconciliation with third-party payout providers.
• Understanding of data privacy requirements: consent management, data retention, erasure.
• Experience testing time- and quota-based logic: TTL-based task reservations, expiry and reassignment, volume limits, targeting by country/language/segment.
• Ability to investigate issues using logs, metrics, traces, databases, and message queues (Grafana, CloudWatch, Kibana, Kafka, SQL/MySQL).
• Experience working with CI/CD, Docker, AWS-based environments.
• Ability to validate consistency across the mobile app, WebView, back office, backend APIs, distributed services, and troubleshoot partial failures and partner/service outages.

• Level of English - from Intermediate+ and above.

Nice-to-haves

• Knowledge of JavaScript/TypeScript for automation.
