Build test coverage, hunt AI failure modes, and own release readiness. ### Company Details At M, we’re early, ambitious, and moving fast. We’re building a new category in how urban households function. We help households run smoothly through trained professionals, operational excellence, and technology-driven support systems. Backed by Peak XV Partners, Blume Ventures and CRED, we’re reimagining how homes run, so people never have to think about chores again. Website: https://tellm.co/ ### The Role Break what we build before our customers can. Manual & Automation Testing Regular software either works or it doesn't. AI is murkier. It can be 95% brilliant and 5% confidently, spectacularly wrong. That 5% is your hunting ground. We're building an AI copilot that actually runs households: ordering groceries, coordinating staff, juggling a hundred small daily decisions around the household. We need someone who reads "it works on my machine" as a personal insult, and who gets a little thrill from finding the bug nobody thought to look for. ### Requirements 3+ years actually doing manual and automation testing. A real grip on QA methodology, STLC, and the defect lifecycle. Hands-on with Selenium / Playwright / Cypress, or API tools like Postman / RestAssured. Enough Python, Java, or JavaScript to automate without waiting on anyone. Comfort with Git, CI/CD, and SQL. You can read a pipeline and a query. A working understanding of REST, JSON, and HTTP. The instinct to ask "but what happens if…" before anyone else does. ### Bonus Qualifications You've tested AI / LLM or other non-deterministic systems. You've built automation from a blank file, rather than just inherited someone else's. You have strong opinions about flaky tests and how to kill them. ### Responsibilities You'll own quality across a real three-app system: APIs, apps and agents that don't always answer the same way twice. Design test cases that bite: turn requirements and user stories into sharp, structured coverage, not checkbox theater. Build and scale automation for web and APIs. We live in Playwright. Run the full spread: functional, regression, integration, smoke and the exploratory testing where the juicy bugs hide. Hunt AI failure modes: hallucinations, adversarial prompts, the "it did what?" moments. Tame defects in Linear: log, track, reproduce, and pair with engineers through fix and verify. Own release readiness: show up in sprint ceremonies like your name's on the box. Level up our QA: push test strategy, coverage, and process forward instead of just following it. ### Why Join M? You'll be the quality bar for a product thousands of people lean on every day. Fast shipping, genuine autonomy and AI problems that don't have answers yet. Work on diverse and challenging real-world problems. Work alongside an ambitious team building a category-defining company from the ground up. Build skills across customer experience, commerce, and operations. Grow quickly in a high-ownership environment. ### Job Details Bengaluru, work from office. ### Interview Process Technical Discussion QA Automation Round Founder Discussion ### Important Note ClanX is a recruitment partner, helping TellM hire a QA Automation Engineer. --- Data: alder (https://alderhq.app).
