Appodeal Accelerator is a fast-growing division of Appodeal focused on helping mobile app and game developers scale through monetization, mediation, user acquisition, retention, analytics, and operational support.

We work both with game studios and app publishers, supporting projects across multiple verticals, genres, and monetization models.

We’re not a service provider — we act as a strategic growth and product partner. Our team helps partners improve monetization performance, technical stability, retention, testing quality, creative performance, and operational scalability.

Beyond publishing support, we also work deeply with Appodeal’s mediation and monetization ecosystem, helping partners with SDK integrations, attribution, analytics, ad operations, monetization setup, and technical troubleshooting.

We operate as a lean, high-impact team where ownership, speed, technical quality, and continuous process improvement are core to how we work.

We are looking for a Senior QA Engineer with 4+ years of experience for part-time work to own technical QA, onboarding validation, SDK integration testing, and release readiness across Appodeal Accelerator partners.

This role combines

technical QA,

monetization validation,

SDK and integration troubleshooting,

onboarding support,

and operational process improvement.

The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, technically strong, operationally reliable, and comfortable independently validating builds and identifying risks before launch or testing.

This is not a passive/manual QA role — we are looking for someone who can proactively improve quality standards, identify technical risks early, and help scale QA operations efficiently.

Support monetization testing and experiment validation
Ensure attribution and mediation systems function correctly before launch

Pre-Test & Release Readiness

• Play and review games before testing approval
• Evaluate technical stability, usability, retention-critical flows, and overall readiness
• Identify risks that could negatively impact UA, monetization, or retention test performance
• Collaborate with Product, QA, and Publishing teams on go/no-go decisions
• QA Operations & Documentation
