The posting

ARE YOU READY TO TAKE YOUR CAREER TO NEW HEIGHTS? ARE YOU SEEKING A NEW CHALLENGE IN A DYNAMIC SECTOR?

This is a very exciting and highly innovative time here at Outside.

OUR TRUE NORTH:Outside Interactive, Inc., the premier hub for active lifestyle enthusiasts, offers best-in-class content and experiences to more than 70 million of the world’s most passionate outdoor, wellness, and endurance enthusiasts every month. We inspire a broad and diverse audience to do the activities they love with greater enjoyment, inspiration, and knowledge and are dedicated to making real change in the outdoor and fitness industries.

About the role

Come join the MapMyFitness team at Outside as a QA Automation Engineer. You will own the test automation strategy for MapMyRun, MapMyWalk, MapMyRide, and our other fitness tracking applications used by millions of athletes worldwide — designing the frameworks, building the coverage, and wiring it all into our CI/CD pipelines so the team can ship confidently and often.

We are a lean, AI-augmented engineering team. We use AI coding tools as a force multiplier across development and testing, and we’re looking for someone who is energized by that way of working — not someone who wants to run a large manual QA operation. You’ll work closely with engineers, product, design, and growth marketing, and you’ll tackle testing problems most QA roles never see: GPS route simulation, GPX replay, sensor and location mocking, and real-world edge cases across iOS, Android, and web.

MapMyFitness is more than a fitness tracking platform — it’s a community that empowers people to achieve their health and fitness goals through data-driven insights and connected experiences. Our North Star is to equip our users with the very best tools to track, analyze, and improve their active lifestyles.

What you will do

  • Design, build, and maintain test automation frameworks for our web, iOS, and Android applications
  • Integrate automated test suites into CI/CD pipelines so every merge is validated automatically, and own the health of those suites — flake triage, runtime, and reliability
  • Build automated API test coverage for the services that power our apps
  • Develop strategies for testing location-based features, including GPS simulation, GPX replay, and device sensor mocking
  • Use AI tools to accelerate test authoring, maintenance, and analysis — and help define how AI fits into our QA workflows
  • Perform targeted exploratory and regression testing on new features where human judgment adds the most value
  • Document and track defects with clear reproduction steps and severity assessments
  • Collaborate with engineers, product, and design to understand requirements, identify edge cases, and build testability into features from the start
  • Participate in sprint planning, provide QA estimates, and advocate for quality throughout the development lifecycle

This describes you

  • You have 4+ years of experience in software quality assurance, including 2+ years building test automation
  • You have strong programming skills in at least one language (Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, or Java preferred)
  • You have hands-on experience building or significantly extending an automation framework using modern tools such as Playwright or Cypress for web, and Maestro, Appium, XCUITest, or Espresso for mobile
  • You have experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, CircleCI, or similar)
  • You have automated API testing beyond Postman collections — you can write API tests in code
  • You use AI coding tools (Claude Code, Copilot, or similar) as a force multiplier and are excited about applying AI to quality engineering
  • You have strong exploratory testing instincts and a keen eye for detail — automation is your default, but you know when human judgment matters
  • You are familiar with bug tracking and test management tools (Jira, TestRail, or similar)
  • You are a strong communicator in a fully remote environment and can explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
  • You are able to work independently in situations of ambiguity
  • You have a passion for quality and a user-first mindset

Nice to have

  • Experience testing GPS, mapping, or other location-based applications
  • Experience with performance or load testing (k6, Gatling, Locust, or similar)
  • Experience with device farms or cloud testing platforms (BrowserStack, Firebase Test Lab, or similar)
  • Passion for fitness, running, cycling, or other endurance activities
  • Familiarity with the MapMyFitness apps or active user community

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
