About hoichoi
hoichoi is India's leading Bengali OTT platform — the digital arm of SVF, Eastern India's largest media & entertainment company. We stream 650+ Bengali movies, 185+ originals, and 3000+ hours of content to a global audience of ~250 million Bengalis across India, Bangladesh, and 100+ countries. We're part of a wider ecosystem alongside Sooper (AI-led micro-drama OTT) and LoglineAI (AI-native creative studio), and we're on a mission to entertain everyone in their native language.

The Chance
We're hiring a QA Engineer to own quality across a streaming product used by millions of viewers daily. You'll sit inside the tech team, reporting to Product, and work directly with Engineering and Design to test features end-to-end — across web, mobile, smart TV apps, and backend APIs — before they reach real users.

This is not a click-through-a-checklist role. Streaming QA is genuinely hard: playback breaks differently on a Tizen TV than on an iPhone, DRM fails silently, a payment flow that works in India fails in Bangladesh,



and a broken analytics event can hide a revenue leak for weeks. We want someone who understands that, has done it before, and has opinions about how to do it better.

What You'll Do :

Core testing
Write and execute clear, thorough test cases for new features and bug fixes across web, mobile apps (Android/iOS), smart TV apps (Samsung Tizen, Android TV/Sony, Roku, LG webOS, VIDAA/Hisense, Apple TV), and backend APIs.
Run functional, regression, exploratory, and smoke passes ahead of every release — including on physical TV hardware with remote-control (D-pad) navigation.
Own and maintain the device/OS/app-version test matrix, prioritised by our actual user distribution rather than by gut feel.
Log, triage, and track defects in Linear with clean steps to reproduce, severity, and evidence — through to resolution.
Playback & DRM
Validate DRM playback across Widevine, FairPlay, and PlayReady on every platform.
