AdTech Privacy Test Analyst (Consent & Device Testing) Contract | Outside IR35 | London & Remote Hybrid | On-site UK device testing required
About the Role
This is a hands-on testing role. We need an AdTech Privacy Test Analyst to test cookies and equivalent marketing and tracking technologies in consumer apps and confirm that customer consent preferences are respected.
Focus will be on intercepting network calls of apps, connected devices and Internet of Things and auditing HTTP Archive (HAR) logs, using Proxyman, Charles Proxy and Fiddler as the main tools.
The role has two parts:
Define a repeatable self-testing process so delivery teams can evidence their own consent testing.
Provide second line assurance by reviewing their HAR evidence and independently verifying results where technically possible.
The work starts with iOS and Android apps and extends to a wider estate of connected devices and IoT products.
Who We Are Looking For
Strong AdTech and MarTech knowledge combined with practical app and device testing. You do not need to be a formal QA engineer, but you do need a tester's discipline: structured test cases, clear evidence and repeatable results.
Key Responsibilities
Consent Testing
Test that consent choices are honoured before, during and after user interaction, including withdrawal of consent.
Test cookies, SDKs, pixels and equivalent tracking technologies across iOS and Android apps, then connected devices and IoT products.
Work from published app store builds where possible, and from test builds where deeper inspection is needed.
Traffic Interception & Evidence
Intercept and inspect network traffic using Proxyman, Charles Proxy and Fiddler, with Burp Suite as required.
Capture and audit HAR logs to identify tracking calls, identifiers, payloads and third-party endpoints.
Use Android Logcat and Xcode Console to gather supporting evidence where HAR files are incomplete or certificate pinning limits visibility.
Inspect SDKs and app packages with MobSF and APK Analyzer to identify undeclared or non-compliant tracking.
Agree test builds with engineering where HTTPS inspection needs certificate pinning disabled or the proxy trusted.
