Position Responsibilities:

• Design, build, and maintain the automated test infrastructure across unit, integration, and end-to-end layers.
• Release pipeline ownership: branching strategy, environment promotion, release gating criteria, and rollback procedures.
• CI/CD pipeline configuration and health (GitHub Actions, Bitrise, or equivalent).
• Test coverage strategy and coverage KPIs across mobile, API, and web surfaces.
• Flaky test management: detection, triage, and systematic resolution.
• Engineering tooling that makes it fast and low-friction for developers to write and run tests.
• Cross-team alignment with Engineering, Product, and DevOps on release readiness standards.

What This Role is Not:

• This is not a manual QA execution role.
• This is not a role where you inherit a finished automation framework and maintain it.
• This is not a role where quality is someone else's definition and you just implement it.
• This is not a role where release decisions are handed to you—you help define what "readyto ship" means.
• If you are looking for a role with stable tooling, defined test plans, and execution-only responsibilities, this role will not be a fit.

Qualification and Experience:

• 5‒8+ years in software QA, automation engineering, or release engineering
• Proven experience owning orsignificantly building a CI/CD or test automation system from the ground up
• Experience working in mobile-first or product-driven engineering organizations
• Familiarity with both iOS and Android release tracks preferred

Required Technical Skills:

• Strong proficiency in at least one test automation framework (Appium, Playwright, Detox, XCUITest, Espresso, or equivalent)
• Hands-onexperience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Bitrise, GitLab CI, or similar)
• Experience with test architecture across multiple layers (unit, integration, E2E)
• Solid understanding of mobile build and release processes (App Store / Play Store deployment, versioning, environment management)
• Experience with test reporting, coverage tooling, and quality dashboards
• Proficiency in at least one scripting/programming language (Dart, Python, TypeScript, Kotlin, or Swift)

Required Leadership Skills:

• Ability to define and advocate for quality standards across the engineering team.
• Strong written and verbal communication —you can clearly explain why a release should or should not go out.
• Ability to work cross-functionally with mobile engineers, backend engineers, and product without needing to be managed.
• Comfort making judgment calls on release readiness under time pressure.
• Systematic thinker who documents and shares decisions, not just fixes problems quietly.

Nice to Have:

• Experience with performance testing integration into CI pipelines (k6, Gatling, or similar).
• Flutter or Dart experience.
• Experience with feature flags and canary / staged release strategies.
• Background working in F&B, logistics, or high-frequency consumer applications.

Who Will Succeed in This Role (You will thrive here if you...)

• Treat the pipeline as a product and hold it to the same quality bar as the app itself
• Get frustrated when releases are blocked by uncertainty rather than actual bugs
• Look at a flaky test and feel compelled to fix the root cause, not just re-run it
• Are comfortable owning a system that other engineers depend on and take that responsibility seriously
• Want to leave a team measurably faster and more confident at shipping than when you join
