• Implement and operationalize QA architectures across mobile (Flutter, iOS, Android), web (front-end and browser-based), backend/API services, and IoT/connected device platforms, in alignment with standards set by the COE Solution Architecture leadership.
• Translate reference architectures and COE patterns into concrete, working frameworks and tooling that engineering teams can adopt.
• Lead the hands-on evaluation, configuration, and rollout of testing frameworks, tools, and platforms appropriate to each domain.
• Apply established quality gates, entry/exit criteria, and risk-based testing strategies within SDLC and Agile delivery pipelines.
• Collaborate with other QA Architects in the COE to ensure cohesive execution and consistent adoption across domains.

• Implement test automation solutions for Flutter-based and native mobile applications covering functional UI testing, device compatibility, network simulation, accessibility, offline behavior, and deep-link validation.
• Configure and manage device farm solutions (e.g., BrowserStack App Automate, AWS Device Farm, Firebase Test Lab) in line with approved device coverage strategies.
• Execute mobile performance testing approaches covering app launch time, frame rendering, memory profiling, and battery consumption.
• Build and maintain automation using both Flutter's native testing stack (flutter_test, integration_test, widget testing) and Appium with Java as equally primary automation layers, selected based on test scope and coverage needs.
• Implement mobile CI/CD pipeline integrations including build triggers, parallel execution, and results reporting.

• Implement test automation solutions for web applications covering functional UI, cross-browser compatibility, accessibility (WCAG), and responsive design validation.
• Build and maintain web automation frameworks using Playwright as the primary tool, with modularity and CI/CD integration in mind.
• Configure and manage BrowserStack Automate for cross-browser and cross-device web test execution, including parallel suite management within pipelines.
• Apply visual regression testing practices for web using AI-assisted tools where directed.

• Implement testing solutions for backend services including API contract testing, integration testing, data validation, and service virtualization.
• Build and maintain API functional and contract testing implementations using Karate Framework or similar tools.
• Implement backend performance and load testing using Gatling, including scenario design, threshold configuration, and CI/CD integration.
• Execute approaches for database testing, message queue validation, and event-driven system verification.
• Apply chaos engineering and fault injection patterns to validate backend resilience in alignment with COE guidance.

• Implement QA solutions for IoT and connected device platforms - including onboard ship systems, crew-facing devices, and guest-facing hardware endpoints.
• Execute test approaches covering firmware/software integration, connectivity and protocol testing (MQTT, BLE, Wi-Fi), device provisioning, and edge-case failure modes.
• Apply hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing patterns and emulator/simulator strategies where physical device access is limited.
• Work with embedded and platform engineering teams to integrate device testing into CI/CD workflows.

• Drive hands-on adoption of AI-powered testing capabilities across all domains - including AI-assisted test generation, self-healing locators, ML-based visual regression, and intelligent test selection.
• Configure and integrate AI/ML tools (e.g., Applitools, Mabl, Copilot-assisted scripting, LLM-based test generation) to increase team velocity and reduce test maintenance overhead.
• Build workflows in which large language models (LLMs) augment QA engineers - such as automated requirement-to-test-case generation, defect pattern analysis, and test coverage gap identification.
• Apply guardrails and evaluation criteria for AI-generated tests as established by COE leadership.

• Contribute to QA COE framework documentation, onboarding materials, and runbooks to ensure adopted tooling and patterns are well-documented and repeatable.
• Track and report on quality engineering KPIs: automation coverage, defect escape rate, test cycle time, flakiness index, and MTTR for test failures.
• Participate in architecture reviews and provide hands-on technical guidance to QA engineers across NCLH teams.
• Partner with DevOps/Platform Engineering to embed quality tooling into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Fastlane, or similar).
• Mentor mid-level QA engineers; contribute to communities of practice and internal enablement sessions.

• 7+ years of experience in software quality engineering, with at least 3+ years in a QA architecture or senior technical lead role.
• Proven experience implementing automation frameworks across two or more of the following domains: mobile, web, backend/API, or IoT/connected devices.
• Hands-on experience with Appium and Java for mobile test automation, including framework design, scripting, and maintenance.
• Hands-on experience with Flutter testing - flutter_test, integration_test, and widget testing.
• Experience with Playwright for web test automation and cross-browser testing strategies.
• Hands-on experience with BrowserStack (App Automate and/or Automate) - configuring capabilities, running parallel test suites, and integrating with CI/CD pipelines.
• Hands-on experience with Karate Framework for API functional and contract testing.
• Hands-on experience with Gatling for backend performance and load testing, including scenario scripting and pipeline integration.
• Familiarity with IoT or embedded systems testing concepts, connectivity protocols (MQTT, BLE), or device integration testing.
• Strong understanding of CI/CD practices and experience integrating automated tests into pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Fastlane, or similar).
• Hands-on experience applying AI/ML tools or LLM-assisted workflows within a QA context.
• Proficiency in Java and Dart; familiarity with at least one additional language (Python, Kotlin, Swift, or JavaScript/TypeScript).
• Strong knowledge of Agile/SAFe delivery methodologies and quality engineering practices within agile teams.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to contribute to and present technical documentation to engineering and non-technical stakeholders.

• Experience in travel, hospitality, e-commerce, or consumer-facing applications with significant user-facing complexity.
• Familiarity with performance and observability tools (Firebase Performance, Datadog, New Relic, k6, Gatling).
• Experience with visual AI testing tools (Applitools Eyes, Percy).
• Knowledge of security testing practices for mobile and web (OWASP Mobile Top 10, OWASP Web Top 10, static/dynamic analysis).
• Experience with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing or device farm management for IoT platforms.
• Familiarity with app store deployment pipelines (App Store, Google Play) and release management.
• ISTQB Advanced Level or equivalent certification.
• Experience working within a QA Center of Excellence or similar shared services model.

• You are an implementer and an executor - you take architectural direction and turn it into working, well-crafted solutions that teams actually use.
• You are fluent across platforms - you adapt testing approaches to the unique characteristics of each domain rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all framework.
• You are a pragmatic adopter of AI - you've moved past the hype and know how to extract real productivity gains from AI tools across web, mobile, backend, and device testing.
• You bring precision and speed - you write clean automation code, document what you build, and ship solutions that last.
• You are a trusted technical partner - your peers and delivery teams rely on you to translate strategy into something that works in practice.
