Mobile Automation Engineer information

What is a mobile automation engineer?

Mobile Automation Engineers are professionals who design, develop, and maintain automated testing solutions for mobile applications. They use specialized tools and frameworks to create scripts that test apps on various mobile devices and operating systems. Their goal is to ensure the quality and functionality of mobile apps by identifying bugs, performance issues, and compatibility problems before release. Mobile Automation Engineers work closely with developers and QA teams to streamline the testing process and improve app reliability. They typically have strong programming skills and knowledge of mobile platforms such as iOS and Android.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a mobile automation engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Mobile Automation Engineer, you need a solid understanding of software testing, mobile platforms (iOS/Android), and programming languages such as Java, Kotlin, or Swift, typically supported by a degree in computer science or related field. Expertise in automation tools like Appium, Selenium, or Espresso, along with experience using CI/CD systems and version control (e.g., Git), is essential. Strong problem-solving, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help you collaborate across teams and deliver reliable test solutions. These competencies ensure robust mobile app quality, faster release cycles, and a seamless user experience.

What are some common challenges mobile automation engineers face when testing across multiple devices and operating systems?

Mobile Automation Engineers often encounter challenges related to device fragmentation, as there are many different models, screen sizes, and OS versions in the market. Ensuring that automated tests run reliably across this diverse landscape can be difficult, requiring careful test design and the use of device farms or emulators. Additionally, keeping up with frequent updates to mobile platforms and handling varying network conditions adds complexity. Collaborating closely with development and QA teams helps address these issues and maintain test coverage.

What is the difference between Mobile Automation Engineer vs QA Automation Engineer?

AspectMobile Automation EngineerQA Automation Engineer
Primary FocusAutomating testing for mobile apps on iOS and AndroidAutomating testing for various software applications, including mobile, web, and desktop
Required SkillsMobile testing tools (Appium, Espresso), programming (Java, Python), mobile OS knowledgeAutomation tools (Selenium, Appium), scripting, testing frameworks, broad application knowledge
Work EnvironmentMobile app development teams, testing labs, Agile environmentsSoftware development teams, QA departments, Agile or DevOps setups

While both roles involve automation testing, Mobile Automation Engineers specialize in testing mobile applications specifically, using mobile-focused tools and environments. QA Automation Engineers have a broader scope, covering multiple platforms and applications, but often share similar skills and tools. The choice depends on whether the focus is solely on mobile or on a wider range of software testing.

Software Development Manager - Mobile Technologies (Miami/Hybrid)
This role is required to be based out of Miami. If you are out of the area, please do not apply if you are not willing to relocate to the Miami area.
About Our Crew
Boats Group is the fastest-growing digital business in the recreational boating space. We are a talented team of techies, creatives, marketers, closers and customer advocates who spend each day pushing the boundaries of technology to make buying and selling boats easy. We spend each day surrounded by 500,000 boats from across the globe.
Our passion and unyielding dedication to getting people on the water influence our culture in ways you won't find at other companies. We're the best at what we do because we're working in an industry we love. When you walk through our doors, you'll find smart, dedicated people who consider one another family.
If you want to work in an inclusive, innovative environment where we encourage employees to collaborate, leverage their talents and actively shape the future of the company, then you will enjoy working here!
About The Role
As the Software Development Manager for Mobile Engineering, you will lead the team responsible for the architecture, development, delivery and operation of Boats Group's React Native Mobile apps and our 3 million + user install-base.
You will lead and grow engineers while staying close to the code: shaping architecture, reviewing critical changes, and working directly with the team to solve difficult technical and production problems. You will own the technical direction of our mobile platform and help us evolve toward a modern, modular application architecture that can support multiple products, teams and customer journeys.
You will help define how we use React Native and Expo across the mobile lifecycle from application structure and native integrations to CI/CD, over-the-air updates, observability, performance and App Store / Google Play delivery. You will partner closely with Product, Design, Platform and other engineering leaders to translate business priorities into a mobile platform that can move quickly without sacrificing quality or maintainability.
This role is Hybrid with some days required per week in our Miami Headquarters. Our office is in the Brickell financial district that overlooks the entire city & ocean with breathtaking views, chock full of motorized standup desks, relaxation pods, ping pong table & shuffleboard in the kitchen, a zillion kinds of free coffee & snacks to choose from, and more!
What You're Seeking
  • A role where you can lead engineers while still influencing architecture and contributing hands-on when it matters.
  • The opportunity to shape the next generation of large-scale React Native applications and the platform underneath them.
  • Ownership of modern mobile architecture, including modular or Superapp-style patterns, shared platform capabilities, native integrations and release strategy.
  • An environment where Expo, automation, rapid iteration and over-the-air delivery can be used thoughtfully to increase engineering velocity.
  • The opportunity to help good engineers get better and great ones continue to evolve.
  • Responsibility for some of the biggest mobile apps in our industry marketplace, including BoatTrader and YachtWorld.
