What we are building

Mimica's mission is to empower enterprises, teams, and individuals to reclaim their most precious resource — time and work more efficiently, with greater purpose and impact.

Our AI-powered task mining observes employee actions across the desktop and categorizes them into detailed process maps. Mimica’s process intelligence highlights inefficiencies, prioritizes improvements based on ROI, recommends the optimal technology for automation (RPA, intelligent document processing, GenAI), and provides a blueprint for building new automations and transforming work.

What you will own

In this role, you will be the first QA in the Desktop team. You will be responsible for improving the quality, testing, bug tracking, and observability of the Desktop application.

  • Assist with troubleshooting and reproduction of client issues in specific scenarios

  • Communicate with the customer-facing team for triage.

  • Report an issue found during feature - processing this before handing over the engineers.

  • Mentoring and guiding other engineers on automation best practices, coding standards and test methodologies to foster a culture of quality.

Requirements

  • Desktop Application testing experience (WPF applications, Windows Environment familiarity, API testing)

  • Ability to set up test environments similar to our Enterprise clients.

  • A track record of designing and implementing tests for various use cases, with a deep understanding of what and why to automate specific tests.

  • Good core programming skills, proficiency in the Microsoft .NET stack, and familiarity with WinAppDriver / FlaUI / UIAutomation (UIA) libraries.

  • Commitment to upholding high engineering standards, prioritising code quality, testability, maintainability and reliability.

  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills.

  • Drive to continually develop your skills, improve team processes and elevate product quality.

  • Fluency in English, with effective communication skills – articulating complex technical ideas and trade-offs clearly.

Bonus 

  • Working knowledge of Appium or other tools utilising UIA — Microsoft’s Accessibility framework for Windows.

  • Familiarity with enterprise environments and applications like SAP and Oracle.

  • Proficiency in creating and/or automating a Continuous Testing pipeline as part of CI/CD.

  • Experience working within a high-impact, high-ambiguity startup environment – delivering value quickly and iteratively.
