[Hiring] QA Engineer @Allshore Talent

Role Description

AllShore Talent is seeking a mid-to-senior QA Engineer specializing in creative automation to validate end-to-end creative automation and digital media production workflows. The role spans Airtable intake and status control, AWS orchestration, Adobe Photoshop APIs, and Frame.io review and approval. The current use case focuses on static banners and Photoshop outputs, with motion graphics and video workflows in the pipeline, including one moving into implementation.

Key Responsibilities

• Validate asynchronous, event-driven pipelines in which intake actions trigger background state machines and webhooks. Trace the complete flow from Airtable through AWS and Photoshop APIs to Frame.io.
• Verify idempotency, de-duplication, race-condition handling, and queue throttling, including duplicate Frame.io Approved webhooks.
• Test recovery from network interruptions, expired tokens, corrupt or oversized source media, missing manifest keys, and simulated API service limits. Verify circuit breaker thresholds, queue pausing, slot release, and manual or administrator recovery.
• Design deterministic cache lifecycle tests that distinguish reusable asset-level caches (Creative/DMC) from isolated template-level manifests. Confirm that template timestamp changes and asset re-uploads invalidate caches correctly and prevent stale file delivery.
• Reconcile assets, folders, and version stacks. Test URL-encoded filenames, duplicate same-name folder structures, version stack collisions, and protection of active in-progress uploads from deletion.
• Validate AI cropping and graphical transformations across human and non-human subjects in landscape and portrait source files. Assess bounding-box and focal-point detection, identify unnecessary Firefly Generative Expand versus appropriate native cropping, and verify masks preserve native boundaries.
• Inspect typography, font substitutions, leading, multi-line wrapping, bold ranges, safe-zone margins, CTA button bounds, disclaimer visibility, and ratings bug placement across aspect ratios.
• Document reproducible, step-level defects in Jira Cloud with complete asset and log context, and evaluate results against acceptance criteria associated with Epics, Stories, and Bugs.

Qualifications

• Mid-to-senior QA engineering experience aligned with digital media workflow engineering, ad-tech production pipelines, creative automation, or cloud-native integration QA.
• Strong end-to-end troubleshooting, edge-case testing, state integrity, and data isolation skills.
• Practical understanding of Airtable field types, formulas, automations, and trigger actions.
• Strong practical knowledge of Frame.io as an automated review and approval surface.
• Solid conceptual understanding of Adobe Photoshop and imaging APIs.
• Comfort navigating AWS orchestration and observability tools.
• Experience testing asynchronous and event-driven systems.
• Understanding of visual quality assurance standards.
• Deep comfort working with Jira Cloud.

Preferred Skills

• Familiarity with Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Motion Graphics templates (MoGRTs), Adobe Media Encoder with particular emphasis on presets, and video codecs, output formats, and resolutions to support upcoming motion graphics and video use cases.
