Reports To: Engineering Manager

- Design, implement, and maintain automated test suites and CI-integrated test infrastructure across Axon Device Manager, Axon Device Check Out, and Fleet 3 Dashboard. - Work across teams with Product, Design, and Engineering to establish a shared quality standard — driving shift-left adoption, engineer-owned test planning, and automation coverage that scales with feature velocity. - Focus on execution: set a high technical bar for the team through test-plan reviews, automation code reviews, and by embedding testability into feature design early in the development cycle.

What You Bring

- 2+ years of industry experience building and maintaining automated test suites for mobile applications shipped to the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. - Understand the ins and outs of mobile quality — expected to lead mobile test-plan reviews as well as the implementation, release validation, and post-release monitoring of automation and regression suites. - Hands-on experience with mobile UI automation frameworks: Appium, Espresso, XCUITest, or Detox — including test framework design, page-object patterns, and stable-selector strategy. - Experience testing React Native applications end-to-end, including native module bridging, cross-platform test parity, and instrumentation for RN-specific failure modes. - Fluency with unit and integration testing patterns paired to modern mobile architectures (MVVM, MVI, Redux/Zustand on RN) and the tradeoffs between unit, integration, and E2E coverage. - Experience validating REST/JSON API contracts and remote data flows via test tooling (Postman, RestAssured, mock servers, contract testing). - Understanding of networking protocols such as TCP, UDP, DHCP, DNS, Server-Sent Events, and WebSockets — with the ability to debug flaky tests down to the transport layer (Wireshark or Charles a plus).

- Experience testing SDKs and hardware-integrated flows: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Networking, Camera (Photo/Video), Audio, File Management, and connections to third-party hardware. - Experience validating video streaming and IoT device connectivity over BLE or Wi-Fi — including test rigs, device farms, or hardware-in-the-loop automation. - Experience with CI/CD platforms (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Bitrise, Firebase Test Lab, AWS Device Farm) for scaling mobile automation. - Familiarity with test management tools (Zephyr Scale, TestRail) and observability tooling (Datadog, Splunk, Firebase Crashlytics) for correlating test signals with production quality.
