- Write the QA onboarding playbook, set the hiring bar for QA contributors and mentor engineers on test architecture

- 8+ years of software engineering with deep mobile test infrastructure expertise for native iOS and Android at scale
- Track record of delivering test infrastructure strategy that other teams rely on
- Strong Swift and Kotlin, able to architect test frameworks and debug native app behavior
- Experience running QA through large migrations, including dual-codebase parity checks and phased rollout gates
