Establish test strategy, coverage goals, and quality metrics; create and maintain test plans (.xctestplan) and risk assessments. Integrate tests into CI/CD (e.g., Azure Devops, GitHub Actions) using xcodebuild, fastlane, and parallel simulator execution; manage test result bundles and reporting. Reduce flakiness via robust synchronization (expectations, predicates), stable Accessibility Identifiers, controlled app state (launch arguments/env vars), and reliable network stubbing. Implement and maintain integration, and end-to-end tests across the stack (ViewModels/Presenters, networking, persistence); promote testability through architecture and DI. Triage failures, debug with Xcode, Console.app, device logs/crash reports, Instruments (Leaks, Allocations, Time Profiler), and simctl. Participate in code reviews, advocate for testability (protocols, dependency injection, modularization), and contribute to release quality gates. Document frameworks, patterns, and runbooks; mentor engineers on testing best practices. Communicate clearly with cross-functional teams and be a proactive, dependable team player.Qualifications: - 3 6+ years in iOS test automation/SDET roles with strong Swift and iOS SDK fundamentals. Hands-on expertise with XCTest and XCUITest; experience testing SwiftUI and UIKit apps. Proficient in building test frameworks/utilities, using Xcode test plans, schemes, and build configurations. Driving conversation, keeping the team accountable to DOR and DOD. - Experience with device farms (Sauce Labs, Perfecto AWS Device Farm, BrowserStack) and real-device testing at scale. Experience with CI/CD for iOS (xcodebuild, fastlane, code signing, parallel testing on simulators/devices). API contract testing, MockWebServer usage, Pact for Mobile. Strong understanding of iOS app architecture (MVC/MVVM/MVI), async/await, ombine, and dependency injection for testability. Strong debugging skills with Instruments, logs, and crash analysis; proven ability to deflake tests systematically. - Excellent written and verbal communication; proven collaboration and team-first approach.
