Mobile Automation Engineer

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Mobile Automation Engineer based in Brazil.

This is an opportunity to build and maintain high-quality automated testing for native iOS and Android applications within a technology-driven logistics environment. You will take ownership of automation suites supporting a critical driver application while contributing to a major application overhaul. The role combines automation engineering, manual validation, troubleshooting, and quality strategy to ensure reliable releases. You will work extensively with Playwright, BrowserStack, GitHub Actions, and TestRail while improving test execution through parallelization and robust regression coverage. You will investigate flaky tests, distinguish genuine product defects from test-environment issues, and provide actionable feedback to engineering teams. Working closely with developers, product managers, and leadership, you will help strengthen QA practices while exploring AI-powered approaches to improve testing efficiency.

Accountabilities

• Write, maintain, and enhance Playwright test suites for native iOS and Android applications, including throughout a major application overhaul.
• Execute structured test plans and manual regression testing to validate release quality before and during automation development.
• Diagnose flaky tests and accurately distinguish genuine engineering defects from test-execution, environment, or automation issues.
• Run and maintain parallelized automated test suites through BrowserStack and GitHub Actions to improve execution speed and reliability.
• Record and communicate test results through TestRail while maintaining clear and actionable testing documentation.
• Review existing manual test cases and determine appropriate opportunities for transitioning coverage into automation.
• Develop a strong understanding of interconnected systems, including driver accounts, permissions, order configurations, and device conditions, to create realistic regression coverage.
• Collaborate with developers, product managers, and leadership to understand requirements and ensure comprehensive test coverage.
• Identify, document, prioritize, and track software defects using appropriate issue-tracking processes.
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to continuous improvements in QA workflows, standards, and automation practices.
• Analyze automated and manual test results and provide clear recommendations and actionable feedback to development teams.
• Explore and implement AI-powered testing tools and techniques that can improve automation efficiency, coverage, and accuracy.

Requirements

• 3–5 years of experience in QA or test automation, with equivalent hands-on experience accepted in place of a formal degree.
• Hands-on experience testing native iOS and Android applications.
• Practical experience developing and maintaining automated tests with Playwright.
• Experience working with TestFlight and TestRail.
• Experience designing and executing parallelized automated test suites.
• Strong troubleshooting skills, particularly the ability to identify flaky tests and differentiate automation or execution issues from genuine engineering defects.
• Ability to quickly understand interconnected application systems, including accounts, permissions, order settings, and device conditions, and translate that knowledge into comprehensive test scenarios.
• Strong analytical, investigative, and problem-solving abilities.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across technical and non-technical teams.
• Ability to work collaboratively with developers, product managers, and other stakeholders.
• Availability to overlap with the team’s morning Eastern Time sync meeting.
• Experience with Python, Java, or another programming language is a plus.
• Previous experience with mobile applications, AI-powered automation tools, manual testing, APIs, or SQL is advantageous.
• Familiarity with Angular is beneficial for understanding application behavior, though development experience is not required.

Benefits

• 100% remote and global work environment, offering flexibility to work from anywhere.
• Flexible working arrangements focused on results and customer satisfaction rather than rigid schedules.
• Dedicated career development path with regular feedback, guidance, and support aligned with individual professional goals.
• Access to modern testing tools, technology, playbooks, and resources to support continuous learning.
• Opportunity to work with emerging AI-powered testing and automation technologies.
• Collaborative international environment with opportunities to connect with colleagues through community activities.
• Employee engagement activities such as coffee chats, happy hours, cooking classes, book clubs, and other team events.
• Opportunity to contribute directly to the quality and evolution of technology supporting modern delivery logistics.
• Inclusive workplace focused on creativity, resourcefulness, continuous improvement, and professional growth.
