The role involves collaboration on improvements in performance security and integration of testing layers alongside continuous enhancements based on evolving project needs.

Key Responsibilities

AppCenter Migration:

Design and implement a custom pipeline to manually deploy artifacts to both the Apple App Store and Google Play replacing current AppCenter integrations.

Ensure that the new pipeline meets app deployment standards and minimizes downtime.

Pipeline Optimization:

Conduct research on optimizing pipeline speed including investigating iOS dependency caching assessing hardware usage and implementing smart caching techniques.

Document findings and recommendations in a structured format (e.g. wiki) to summarize tried solutions successful outcomes and future improvements for pipeline efficiency.

Artifact Size Reduction for iOS:

Investigate methods to reduce the size of iOS artifacts benefiting app users by requiring less device storage and faster installation times.

Provide detailed documentation covering the research process successful methods and further improvement plans.

Error and Warning Resolution:

Address and resolve all pipelinerelated errors and warnings to enhance reliability and stability.

Testing Integration:

Integrate various layers of testing (unit integration endtoend) within the pipeline to support continuous validation and deployment quality.
