In this role you will:

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable automation frameworks using Appium/Selenium with strong engineering practices (modular, reusable, maintainable code)
• Contribute to both feature development (where needed) and test automation, bridging the gap between development and QA
• Drive automation strategy with a focus on engineering quality into the product, not just increasing test coverage
• Build and own end-to-end automation solutions for critical user journeys with high reliability and low flakiness
• Integrate automation deeply into CI/CD pipelines, enabling fast feedback and continuous validation for every release
• Apply AI-driven techniques (OCR, smart locators, self-healing scripts) to solve complex automation challenges in dynamic mobile environments
• Participate in design and code reviews to ensure testability, scalability, and robustness of the product
• Identify gaps in architecture or implementation that impact quality and proactively suggest improvements
• Perform targeted exploratory and functional testing with a strong focus on real-world scenarios (devices, networks, edge cases)
• Take ownership of release quality, combining automation, manual validation, and risk-based testing approaches
• Mentor team members on engineering best practices in testing, including coding standards, framework design, and debugging techniques
• Drive a quality-first engineering culture, where testing is embedded early and continuously in the development lifecycle

• 5 to 8 years of experience in software engineering and testing, with strong exposure to mobile applications (iOS and Android)
• Solid programming experience in Java (preferred), or C# / .NET / JavaScript, with the ability to design, develop, and maintain scalable codebases
• Proven experience in applying engineering principles to testing (clean code, design patterns, modular architecture)
• Experience working with development and build tools such as JUnit, TestNG, Gradle, JMeter, Git, and SQL
• Strong understanding of CI/CD practices using Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or similar platforms

• Very good knowledge in building test automation frameworks using Selenium, Appium, or similar tools.

• Experience in AI-driven test automation
• Deep understanding of mobile system behaviour, including performance, device constraints, and real-world usage conditions
