About the role

Build and own the iOS and Android test automation that runs in our CI. Deliver a real quality signal on nightly, weekly, and release builds: what runs as a quick sanity check, what runs as deeper regression, and what we still test by hand. Keep iOS and Android at parity.

What they're looking for

  • 7–8 years in software QA / test engineering, including 4+ years building mobile test automation for iOS and/or Android
  • Hands-on with at least one mobile framework: XCUITest, XCTest, Espresso, Appium, Maestro, Detox, or similar
  • Strong scripting/programming, can build harnesses and small tools yourself
  • Has integrated tests into CI/CD or a release pipeline
  • Can debug a flaky failure and hand engineering something useful
  • Understands release risk and how to prioritize what gets tested
