Resumo da oferta

Jobtailor in Brazil seeks an experienced Android automation engineer to design and evolve scalable test automation architectures using Espresso, UI Automator, and Appium. You will integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines, optimize parallel execution, and manage Docker-based execution environments on Linux servers.

The role emphasizes observability, performance testing, and test reliability. The ideal candidate has strong Python skills, deep Android knowledge, and hands-on experience with cloud

Qualificações

• Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
• Strong experience developing Android applications and tests using Android Studio.
• Proficiency with automation frameworks such as Espresso, UI Automator, and Appium.
• Strong Python skills for framework development, automation scripts, internal tools, and test orchestration.
• Advanced experience defining scalable and resilient test automation architectures.
• Extensive experience designing and integrating CI/CD pipelines, including strategies for parallelization and test distribution (sharding).
• Experience executing large-scale test campaigns using emulators and physical devices.
• Deep knowledge of the Android platform (Activities, Services, Broadcasts, Permissions, Intents).
• Experience analyzing logs and performance (logcat, dumpsys, Perfetto, Systrace).
• Experience with containerization using Docker for standardization, isolation, and scalability of test environments.
• Solid knowledge of Jenkins for creating, maintaining, and optimizing automated pipelines.
• Experience administering and managing services on Linux servers (deployment, automation, monitoring, troubleshooting, and tuning).
• Knowledge of observability practices (logs, metrics, alerts) applied to automated testing.
• Define standards, best practices, and governance for test automation.

Responsabilidades

• Define and evolve the Android test automation architecture, ensuring scalability, reliability, and ongoing maintainability.
• Design and implement robust automation frameworks using Espresso, UI Automator, and Appium.
• Lead integration of tests into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI), focusing on performance and parallelization.
• Structure and manage execution environments using Docker to ensure consistency and reproducibility of tests.
• Administer and evolve automation infrastructure on Linux servers, including services and orchestration of test execution.
• Define strategies for efficient large‑scale execution, including the use of local and cloud device farms (Firebase Test Lab, AWS Device Farm, BrowserStack).
• Implement collection and analysis of quality, stability, and performance metrics, with dashboards and alerts.
• Serve as a technical reference, supporting development and QA teams in adopting automation best practices.
• Lead failure analyses, reduce flakiness, and promote continuous improvement of tests.
• Ensure tests meet security, accessibility, and Android standards compliance requirements.
