What are the responsibilities and job description for the QA & Usability Intern (Unpaid) position at ODK Media?
Company Overview:
ODK Media, Inc. is a media company headquartered in Irvine, California with an office in Los Angeles, CA as well. We provide premium international content through our owned-and-operated streaming platforms, including OnDemandKorea, OnDemandChina, and OnDemandViet.
We also distribute content through global streaming services, cable operators, and movie theaters, serving as a leading Asian media hub for AAPI communities throughout the United States.
Position Overview:
Learn how a streaming product is quality-tested end to end at ODK Media (OnDemandKorea · Amasian TV) — functional QA across a real device matrix, design QA against Figma specs, and usability testing with real users. Two named mentors (a Product Manager and our Design/QA lead), weekly 1:1s, a defined 12-week curriculum, and hands-on use of AI-assisted QA tooling.
ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Execute guided test passes on release candidates across web, mobile, and TV platforms (Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Samsung/LG smart TVs)
- Write bug reports in Jira to our standard: reproduction steps, expected vs. actual, severity per rubric, screen recordings — specced well enough that engineers (and AI agents) can act without follow-up questions
- Run regression checklists for scheduled releases and verify fixed issues
- Design QA: compare shipped screens against Figma specs and log discrepancies
- Test subtitles/captions and accessibility across devices, including compliance scenarios and TV remote navigation
- Support usability sessions: task design, note-taking, synthesis into short findings reports
- Join weekly triage to see how issues get prioritized
- Currently enrolled student (junior/senior or graduate) in HCI, CS, Design, Communications, Media, or related — able to receive academic credit preferred
- Detail-oriented: you notice the misaligned button, the subtitle that flashes one frame late
- Clear written communication — most of this work is writing things other people act on
- Comfortable learning Jira and Figma (we teach our workflow)
- Korean/English bilingual a plus (Vietnamese or Chinese also welcome); interest in streaming/K-content a plus
- Nice to have: beta-testing or bug-bounty experience, research-methods coursework, familiarity with TV streaming devices
PERKS & BENEFITS
- Catered lunch every day with varying local cuisines and a kitchen stocked with drinks and snacks
- Corporate parties, team bonding events, and much more!
