• Build and maintain in-house tools for test parallelization, network mocking, and custom reporting.
• Perform peer code reviews, ensuring robust test coverage and reliable CI pipelines.
• Drive improvements to the CI/CD ecosystem, ensuring scalability, maintainability, and speed of test execution.
• Explore and integrate AI-assisted development approaches to enhance test generation, workflow optimization, and CI/CD practices.
• Actively participate in Agile ceremonies – daily standups, sprint planning, retrospectives, and showcases.

Skills Required:

• 4+ years of commercial experience in QA Automation or SDET roles, with a strong focus on iOS testing.
• Proficiency in Swift and comfort working in Xcode, with solid debugging and troubleshooting skills.
• Hands-on experience with XCUITest, unit testing, and UI automation.
• Proven experience in designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automated testing workflows.
• Strong experience with Git/GitHub, familiar with both Gitflow and trunk-based development.
• Knowledge of SOLID principles and ability to apply them in test framework design.
• Ability to apply or readiness to adopt AI-driven testing practices, including test generation and workflow automation.
• Strong English communication skills
