LATAM QA Engineer, Mobile
About this role
About Known
Known is a matchmaker that talks to users and supports them like a friend. The mission is to empower humanity by applying general intelligence to human connection. Users join Known by telling the AI voice agent their life story. On average, new users talk to the agent for 27 minutes, giving Known a uniquely intimate context. The team comes from Uber, Uber Eats, Afterpay, and Cash App, and the company is backed by Eurie Kim and Kirsten Green at Forerunner Ventures (the investors behind Decagon, Faire, and Oura), NFX, and PearVC.
About the Role
Known is hiring a QA Engineer to be the caretaker of the mobile experience. At Known, quality is not an afterthought; it is the product. The team strives to be the Apple of dating, and QA ensures every interaction feels polished, reliable, and distinctly human. This is a product-led, user-obsessed company, and the QA hire is the last line of defense before anything less than exceptional reaches users. Because the mobile app is reactive and the interaction surface is voice-led, edge cases compound quickly; a strong QA engineer who can build automated coverage and catch regressions before users do is the bar.
