We are looking for a strong Quality Engineering candidate who can flex across MTS-2 and MTS-3 expectations depending on depth of experience, ownership, and technical maturity. This role is ideal for someone who brings deep hands-on automation skills with solid manual testing foundations, and who is excited to work on products spanning mobile, TV/CTV, web, backend services, and large-scale data pipelines.
This person will work across Nielsen Pulse / Streaming+, EMM / panel applications, and adjacent digital measurement platforms. The role requires end-to-end quality ownership across user journeys, platform integrations, data collection flows, and backend validation in a domain where correctness, scale, and platform diversity matter.
The ideal candidate is comfortable testing not just UI behavior, but also events, telemetry, APIs, databases, data pipelines, and platform-specific edge cases across Android, iOS, web, and TV environments. They should be able to design robust automation, perform deep debugging, and partner closely with engineering, product, data, and operations teams to ship high-quality releases.

Strong SQL and data validation skills, including comparison of source vs processed outputs
Experience debugging issues using logs, network traces, device logs, browser tools, and backend evidence
Strong understanding of test design, regression planning, edge-case identification, and defect lifecycle management
Experience working in Agile teams with cross-functional collaboration
Ability to independently own features, drive clarity in ambiguous situations, and balance speed with quality
