Lead Solution, Testing and Automation

Key Responsibilities 1. SDK Testing and Quality Assurance • Design, develop, and execute test strategies for Android/mobile SDKs and related software components. • Validate SDK functionality across multiple Android versions, device types, OEM environments, and integration scenarios. • Create detailed test plans, test cases, test scenarios, and traceability matrices for SDK features and enhancements. • Perform integration testing to verify SDK behavior when embedded into host applications. • Ensure backward compatibility and stability of SDK releases across supported environments. • Validate SDK installation, configuration, initialization, runtime behavior, error handling, and upgrade paths. 2. Security Validation and Secure QA Support • Perform validation of security-sensitive features, including authentication flows, secure storage, device binding, cryptographic operations, token handling, and session management. • Verify implementation of mobile security controls such as certificate pinning, root/jailbreak detection, tamper detection, obfuscation, and secure communication. • Support review and validation of security requirements in SDK and mobile application workflows. • Work closely with engineering and security teams to identify vulnerabilities, weak controls, insecure configurations, and risk areas early in the development lifecycle. • Participate in security testing activities, including negative testing, abuse-case testing, and misconfiguration validation. • Assist in validating compliance with secure coding and mobile security best practices. 3. Test Automation • Build and maintain automated test frameworks for SDK and application validation. • Develop automated functional, regression, integration, and API test suites. • Automate repeatable test scenarios for SDK releases and continuous validation pipelines. • Integrate automated test execution with CI/CD pipelines to improve release quality and reduce manual effort. • Contribute to test infrastructure for emulator, real-device, and device farm-based testing. 4. API, Integration, and Platform Validation • Validate SDK interaction with backend APIs, device services, and platform capabilities. • Perform testing for network handling, retries, resilience, transaction integrity, and failure scenarios. • Verify interoperability between SDK components and dependent systems. • Support testing of mobile components involving NFC, device security modules, cryptographic interfaces, and secure communication layers where applicable. • Ensure consistency of behavior across sandbox, UAT, and production-like test environments. 5. Performance, Reliability, and Resilience Testing • Conduct performance, stress, load, and stability testing for SDKs and related mobile components. • Validate app/SDK behavior under low memory, poor network, device interruptions, and edge-case conditions. • Test for battery impact, startup latency, SDK footprint, crash resilience, and transaction reliability. • Assess release readiness from a non-functional quality standpoint. 6. Defect Management and Quality Governance • Identify, document, reproduce, prioritize, and track defects with clear technical detail. • Work with developers to troubleshoot issues, validate fixes, and prevent regression. • Maintain structured QA documentation including release reports, quality dashboards, and defect metrics. • Support root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives for recurring quality issues. • Contribute to definition and monitoring of QA gates and release acceptance criteria. 7. Collaboration and Process Improvement • Work closely with R&D developers, product managers, architects, security teams, and external stakeholders. • Participate in requirement reviews, design discussions, sprint planning, and release readiness reviews. • Recommend improvements in QA processes, tooling, test coverage, and product quality standards. • Contribute to a quality-first engineering culture within the R&D organization.
