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.
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 integration, or test environment/automation.
