Job description

Company

At Amber Labs, we are a cutting‑edge UK and European technology consultancy that prioritises empowering autonomy, promoting experimentation, and facilitating rapid learning to provide exceptional value to our clients. Our culture is centred around collaboration, where all colleagues, regardless of their role, work together to minimise risk and shorten delivery times.

Position Overview

The testers need the ‘generic’ knowledge for automation testers e.g. Java, CI/CD, BDD, Cucumber, Selenium etc., but also need a focus on the following:

Responsibilities

• Automated testing of deployments to cloud environments (e.g. AWS, EKS) through pipelines
• Improving the quality of infrastructure deployments through automated testing – reducing issues arising after deployment
• Testing the actual instance/infrastructure itself rather than just the application that is being deployed
• Testing instances to ensure they have been deployed correctly and are working as expected
• Chaos testing of deployments/instances to ensure they behave as expected if an instance goes down for some reason
• Define the approach for test infrastructure setup and use outputs to drive technical improvements
• Communicate with other teams and share technical resources, knowledge and lessons learned (with regard to testing automation)
• Use Terraform and appropriate testing tools such as Kitchen

Benefits

• Join a rapidly expanding start‑up where personal growth is a part of our DNA
• Flexible work environment focused on deliverable outcomes
• Private medical insurance through Aviva
• Company pension plan through Nest
• 25 days of annual leave plus UK bank holidays
• Access Perkbox, a global employee rewards platform offering discounts, perks and wellness resources
• Generous employee referral program
• Highly collaborative and collegial environment with opportunities for career advancement
• Encouraged to take bold steps and embrace an experimental mindset
• Choose your preferred device, PC or Mac

Diversity & Inclusion

• Value the unique experiences, perspectives, and backgrounds of all employees and create an environment where everyone feels welcomed, respected, and valued
• Prohibit all forms of harassment, bullying, discrimination, and victimisation and promote a culture of dignity and respect for all
• Educate all new hires on our Diversity and Inclusion policies and ensure they are aware of their rights and responsibilities to create a safe and inclusive workplace
• Build a workplace that reflects and celebrates the diversity of our employees and communities

Our Talent Acquisition Team will be in touch to advise you on the next steps. We have a two‑stage interview process for most of our consultants.
