QA Manager

• Own the end-to-end

  QA strategy

  for Android, iOS, and Web, aligning with product goals and engineering roadmaps.

  quality standards, checklists, and knowledge bases

  that scale with the team and product.

• Lead

  release readiness

  and sign-off for mobile and web releases across alpha/beta/production channels.
• Partner with engineering, product, and program/release leads on

  go/no-go

  decisions; communicate risks, blockers, and mitigations.

  bug bashes

  , ensure critical defects are triaged and fixed, and maintain consistent

  release checklists

  .
• Drive robust

  post-release monitoring

  and root-cause analysis (RCA) for production incidents.

• Oversee

  functional, integration, regression, UX, and accessibility

  testing for mobile and web.
• Ensure coverage for mobile-specific scenarios:

  network variation

  ,

  OS version/device fragmentation

  ,

  permissions

  ,

  dark mode

  ,

  background/foreground lifecycles

  , and

  install/upgrade flows

  .
• Ensure coverage for web-specific scenarios:

  cross-browser

  ,

  responsive layouts

  ,

  progressive enhancement

  , and

  web performance

  .

• Define and scale

  automation frameworks

  for mobile (eg,

  Appium

  ,

  Espresso

  ,

  XCUITest

  ) and web (eg,

  Selenium/WebDriver

  ,

  Cypress

  ,

  Playwright

  ).
• Integrate automation into

  CI/CD

  (eg, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Bitrise) with fast and reliable

  quality gates

  .
• Leverage

  device labs/real-device clouds

  and

  virtualized environments

  for breadth and depth of coverage.
• Implement

  observability and analytics-driven testing

  using crash, performance, and user behavior signals; set up

  dashboards and alerts

  for release and app health.
• Explore/lead

  GenAI-driven QA

  initiatives that improve test authoring, maintenance, and coverage.

• Define and track

  KPIs

  : defect leakage, automation ROI, release success rate, regression cycle time, crash-free and ANR rates, performance budgets, and stability SLAs.
• Run

  data-driven triage

  ; partner with engineering on systemic fixes and quality debt reduction.
• Champion

  shift-left

  practices, including early involvement in design and architecture discussions, and embedding quality gates in the SDLC.

• Hire, mentor, and develop a high-performing team of

  SDETs

  and

  QA engineers

  (manual and automation).
• Drive

  resource planning

  , prioritization, and career growth; foster a culture of

  ownership

  ,

  accountability

  , and

  continuous improvement

  .

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Represent QA in technical reviews and cross-team forums; ensure quality priorities and risks are visible and addressed.
• Partner closely with product, design, engineering, data, and customer support to align on quality outcomes and feedback loops.

• Own strategies for

  performance

  ,

  stability/reliability

  ,

  security

  ,

  accessibility

  ,

  localization

  , and

  compliance

  testing across platforms.

• 8+ years

  in software testing/QA with

  3+ years

  leading QA teams for

  consumer-scale

  mobile and web applications.
• Deep understanding of

  Android & iOS ecosystems

  (app lifecycle, build pipelines, release workflows, store processes) and

  modern web

  (browser engines, responsive design, performance).
• Hands-on expertise with

  mobile automation

  (Appium, Espresso, XCUITest) and

  web automation

  (Selenium/WebDriver, Cypress, Playwright).
• Strong experience with

  CI/CD

  and build systems (eg, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Bitrise) and

  artifact management

  .
• Solid understanding of

  API testing

  and service integrations (eg, Postman, REST Assured),

  mocking

  , and

  contract testing

  .
• Experience with

  observability

  and

  crash/performance

  tooling; able to drive analytics-informed test strategies.
• Excellent

  communication

  ,

  stakeholder management

  , and

  decision-making

  skills in fast-paced environments.

• Experience operating at

  millions of MAUs

  and

  rapid release cadences

  (weekly/bi-weekly or faster).
• Expertise in

  performance testing

  (startup time, rendering, memory, network) and

  accessibility

  standards.
• Experience with

  feature flags

  and

  A/B experiment

  QA.
• Exposure to

  security testing

  and

  privacy/compliance

  considerations for consumer apps.
