Senior Mobile Test Automation Engineer

📋 Description

• Develop and implement the mobile test automation strategy; collaborate with architects and embedded teams to enhance testing at the system, subsystem, and integration levels (unit/component tests will remain with partner development teams).

• Take ownership of our Python, pytest, and Appium framework; facilitate Android and iOS tests on actual devices within our in-house farm with parallel execution capabilities.

• Create and manage GitLab CI pipelines for the test suite, focusing on runner sizing, reporting, retries, and flake management.

• Incorporate AI-assisted tools into the workflow; engage daily with AI coding assistants to expedite test authoring and framework development, while promoting adoption across the QA team.

• Evaluate test outcomes (Allure, HTML reports) and work alongside developers to identify, resolve, and retest defects, especially concerning audio features (ANC, Transparency, EQ, hot words, voice control).

• Create and maintain test specifications; conduct both automated and exploratory tests; propel continuous improvement.

⛳️ Requirements

• Over 5 years of experience in mobile app testing and/or development (Android and iOS).

• Proficient in Python with practical experience in pytest and Appium.

• Familiarity with white-label/multi-brand applications; adept at managing brand-specific configurations, assets, and variants from a shared codebase, while structuring tests to scale across partner builds without redundancy.

• Experience executing tests on real device farms or remote devices (e.g., BrowserStack, Sauce Labs, AWS Device Farm, or in-house) and integrating them into CI/CD pipelines (preferably GitLab).

• Proficient in AI-enhanced workflows: actively utilize AI coding assistants for test development, debugging, and framework tasks, and can articulate their advantages and limitations.

• Experience or a strong interest in applying AI in testing: familiarity with LLMs/agents for test generation, flake triage, log analysis, exploratory testing, or self-healing locators.

• Bonus: background in testing audio, Bluetooth, or consumer products adjacent to embedded systems (e.g., ANC, codecs, BLE pairing, firmware/app interaction).
