Team roles and responsibilities for Mobile DevOps
As we discussed previously, Mobile DevOps involves a cross-functional team, and each role has unique responsibilities, such as CI/CD pipelines, cloud architecture, security compliance, and on-call (incident management). Each of them completes the other. Assuming the team follows a squads-and-tribes approach, maybe a dedicated and centralized team can handle Mobile DevOps practices and processes as follows:
- A release manager
- Mobile engineering managers
- Quality assurance engineers
- A DevOps engineer
- Mobile engineers
- A security engineer
- Cloud/DevOps architecture

This approach or setup can help enterprise companies scale their teams and business effectively.
In medium-sized or small teams, the mobile developers with the DevOps engineers can do the same job but this might require time and effort from them, so it always depends on the goal of Mobile DevOps.
