Job description

Hello! We're Teya.

Teya is a payment and software service provider, headquartered in London serving small, local businesses across Europe. Founded in 2019, we build easy to use, integrated tools that enable our members to accept payments and boost business performance.

At Teya we believe small, local businesses are the lifeblood of our communities.

We’re here because we don’t believe there’s a level playing field that gives small businesses with a fighting chance against the giants of the high street.

We’re here because we see banks and legacy service providers making things harder for them. We don’t think the best technology or the best service should be reserved for those with the biggest headquarters.

We’re here to fight for a future where small, local businesses can thrive, and to commit the same dedication they offer all of us.

Become a part of our story.

We’re looking for exceptional talent to join our mission. We offer a chance to create impact in a high‑energy and connected culture, while benefiting from continuous learning opportunities, a supportive community which is proud to serve our mission, and comprehensive benefits.

• Collaborate with developers, product managers, and DevOps to ensure quality across the entire SDLC

• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or other CI/CD tools)
• Test APIs and database interactions, validating results with SQL queries
• Work within an AWS cloud environment, supporting DevOps and cloud‑native testing practices
• Contribute to QA best practices, processes, and documentation
• Actively participate in sprint planning, daily standups, and retrospectives

Your Story

• 5+ years of QA engineering experience with a strong focus on automation
• Hands‑on experience with Selenium WebDriver, Gherkin/Cucumber frameworks
• Strong knowledge of Java, Kotlin, and JavaScript testing tools
• Experience testing Angular (v15 or higher) applications
• Proficiency in testing Android (Kotlin/Java) and iOS mobile applications
• Solid understanding of SQL for data validation
• Familiarity with AWS cloud services and DevOps practices
• Experience implementing automated tests in a CI/CD pipeline (e.g., GitHub Actions)
• Strong manual testing background with a keen eye for detail

Nice to Have

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• Strong problem‑solving mindset and analytical thinking
• Adaptable, curious, and eager to learn new technologies
• Team player who contributes positively to a collaborative environment
• Proactive and self‑driven with a focus on delivering high‑quality software

Teya is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.

We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, or background can thrive and do their best work. We believe that a diverse team leads to better ideas, stronger outcomes, and a more supportive workplace for all.
