In short We're looking for an experienced QA Lead to take ownership of quality assurance across our mobile and IoT projects. You'll design test strategies, raise the bar on QA practices, build up the chapter, and mentor a team of testers who already know what they're doing. This is a permanent role: B2B contract, monthly salary, full benefits, and you'd be reporting to the CTO on QA direction across the company. Why intent? We've been designing and co-creating connected devices since 2008. Wearables, smart audio, health-tech hardware for clients like Oura and BOSE, backed by investors like a16z and Founders Fund. We're 60+ people, fully remote, and AI-native since before LinkedIn influencers discovered the term. QA here isn't "click through the screens": it's mobile apps talking to firmware over BLE, sensor pipelines, edge cases that only appear at -10°C with a flat battery. The bugs are real, the stakes are real, and good QA leadership changes whether a product ships well or limps out the door. Who this role is NOT for If your version of QA leadership is reviewing test cases and writing weekly reports, this isn't going to work. We're not hiring someone to manage a team that already runs itself. We're hiring someone who shapes how testing is done across mobile and IoT projects, decides what tooling we invest in, and pushes the whole chapter forward. If you need full specs to make a call, if "that's not in scope" is a sentence you use often, or if you'd rather not be the one explaining quality trade-offs to a US client at 18:30, we're probably not your people. We're AI-native and we expect you to treat AI as a daily multiplier, not a gimmick. What you'll do • Plan, design, and execute comprehensive testing strategies for IoT and mobile products • Lead and mentor the QA team: guide test design, review approaches, run knowledge-sharing • Introduce modern QA tools and practices, including test automation and CI/CD integration • Define and track quality metrics, and continuously improve testing efficiency • Work directly with the CTO on QA direction across the company • Collaborate with developers, PMs, and clients to define acceptance criteria and coverage • Oversee the full range of testing: compatibility, functional, integration, E2E, automated, performance, security, regression • Run quality work end to end: from raw BLE signal capture all the way to cloud data validation • Use AI tools as part of your daily workflow, not as a party trick How we work Fully remote. We have a pet-friendly office in Warsaw and a coworking space in Gdansk if walls and coffee machines motivate you, but nobody will ask why you're not there. Working hours are flexible: most of the team operates between 10:00 and 18:00 CET, and that's when most meetings happen. Evening calls with US-based clients (up to ~20:00) are part of the rhythm, sometimes a couple of times a week, always planned ahead. You'll lead the QA chapter for the whole company, and at the same time be embedded in a project squad led by a PM for day-to-day delivery. What you'll get • 20,500-28,000 PLN/month net B2B, depending on your experience • 26 days of paid leave • 10 days of paid sick leave • Saltus medical care • Self-development budget (2,000 PLN/year) • Truly flexible hours: you organize your day • Fully remote, with pet-friendly Warsaw office + Gdansk cowork if you want them • All necessary equipment provided • Internal knowledge-sharing: tech talks, team sessions, library and conference budgets Your first months We aim to give you space to ramp up before owning the chapter direction, but this is a real company with real deadlines: if a project needs you sooner, we'll make sure you have the support to hit the ground running. You'll get paired with a buddy, meet the team, and start with real tasks while being guided by leadership. Monthly HR check-ins, real feedback after month two, and a proper review after month three. No one waits three months to tell you something isn't working: if it's great, you'll know; if something needs adjusting, you'll hear about it while there's still time to adjust. Recruitment process The entire process is in English. All interviews are recorded for internal evaluation purposes. • Application with a few screening questions • HR call, ~45 min, casual • Short take-home task (~60 min) • Technical meeting, ~90 min, with the CTO • Final feedback within a few days Once we're in touch, you'll hear from us fast. We don't ghost and we don't drag. One more thing intent is an equal opportunity employer. We care about what you can do, not where you come from. Send us your CV and a few words about why this caught your eye. Bonus points if you share an improvement you introduced in a previous QA team that actually moved the needle, the specifics matter more than the title.
