You will play a pivotal role in designing and implementing tools, frameworks, and systems that empower engineering teams to deliver faster, more reliably, and with greater confidence.

Key Responsibilities

• Enable Developer Productivity:

  • Build and enhance automation tools that accelerate development workflows, such as code linting, static analysis, and build optimization tools.
  • Design and implement solutions to automate repetitive developer tasks, such as test data setup, environment provisioning, and dependency management.

• Design Advanced Testing Automation:

  • Create robust frameworks and tooling for automated testing across unit, integration, functional, performance, and security testing.
  • Develop systems to enable early testing in the SDLC using technologies like Espresso , emulators, and device labs.
  • Automate end-to-end testing processes to reduce manual effort and improve test reliability.

• Optimize Quality Assurance Practices:

  • Automate quality checks throughout the pipeline, from code commit to production deployment.
  • Leverage data and analytics to identify gaps in quality processes and implement automated solutions to address them.
  • Drive innovation in functional and non-functional testing, such as performance benchmarking and security scans.

• Streamline Development Workflows:

  • Build integrations with CI/CD pipelines to ensure seamless execution of automated tasks.
  • Design and maintain tools that monitor system performance and reliability during development and post-deployment.

• Promote Scalability and Reliability:

  • Collaborate on the development of scalable automation strategies that grow with the organization’s needs.
  • Introduce robust monitoring and alerting systems to ensure automation reliability and performance.

• Leadership and Collaboration:

  • Mentor and guide engineering teams on adopting and integratingproductivity-enhancingautomation solutions.
  • Collaborate with product managers, QA teams, DevOps, and other stakeholders to align automation goals with business objectives.

Technical Expertise:

• 8+ years of experience in software engineering, with a focus on automation and productivity tooling.
• Proficiency in event-driven architecture , test automation frameworks, and CI/CD pipeline integration.
• Experience building tools and frameworks for both functional and non-functional testing, such as load, security, and performance testing.
• Deep knowledge of Android testing tools (e.g., Espresso ) and workflows, as well as general development ecosystems.
• Expertise in using virtualized and physical device labs for enhanced testing scenarios.

Development Stack:

• Strong programming skills in languages such as Kotlin , Java , Python , or JavaScript .
• Hands-on experience with infrastructure automation tools like Terraform, Ansible, or similar.
• Familiarity with modern development workflows, version control systems (e.g., Git), and build tools (e.g., Gradle, Maven).

Soft Skills:

• Proven ability to solve complex technical problems with creative, scalable solutions.
• Excellent communication skills for cross-functional collaboration.
• Demonstrated leadership and mentorship experience in engineering teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with advanced developer tools like IDE plugins, static code analysis tools, or automated code review systems.
• Familiarity with metrics-driven development and monitoring using tools like Grafana, Prometheus, or New Relic.
• Knowledge of microservices and distributed systems architecture, particularly in automation contexts.
