Description
This is a hybrid technical/leadership role: you will remain hands-on with automation frameworks and test design while also mentoring engineers, shaping hiring decisions, and planning team delivery against program milestones.

Responsibilities
- Define and lead the end-to-end validation & verification strategy for assigned Ford App features, starting with native commerce (in-app accessories storefront and in-app subscriptions), and expanding over time to features such as mobile-to-vehicle projection and service scheduling.
- Design and execute test coverage for in-app purchase and subscription flows, including checkout, payment processing (Stripe, using test card scenarios), order/transaction state validation, and subscription lifecycle events (trials, renewals, upgrades/downgrades, cancellations).
- Lead, mentor, and coach a team of Software QA Engineers (currently 2-3, with growth planned), providing technical guidance, code/test design reviews, and day-to-day direction on test execution.
- Actively participate in hiring and building out the QA team,



including sourcing, interviewing, and providing hiring recommendations, and contribute input into team members' performance reviews.
- Own and evolve the mobile automation framework strategy, using XCTest/XCUIAutomation for iOS and Jetpack Compose Test API + Espresso for Android.
- Design comprehensive test cases covering functional, integration, and edge-case scenarios for mobile app features, including commerce flows and, as scope expands, device-to-vehicle projection scenarios.
- Plan and coordinate test execution and delivery schedules across releases, balancing team capacity, program priorities, and quality commitments.
- Execute and oversee automated and manual tests across development, staging, and production-like commerce environments.
- Analyze test results, debug automation failures, and perform root cause analysis to determine whether defects originate in application code, payment/subscription in
