About this opportunity...

This exciting opportunity is within the Personalised Experiences and Communications (PEC) platform for a Quality Engineer. As the Quality Engineer you'll lead, direct and shape approaches to solving technical challenges and translating business requirements into technical solutions. You will work in a highly collaborative way to drive efforts to create, build, support and improve our software working closely with the product and engineering teams with lots of exciting new challenges. You\'ll be a core contributor to ensure good quality and engineering practices are followed in accordance with engineering transformation strategy.

Here’s where you’ll make a difference:

As an experienced Quality Engineer, you’ll bring broad and deep technical experience with a passion for engineering excellence. We are looking for a dynamic and adaptable individual, able to use and learn new skills in varying circumstances. You\'ll be curious about technology and understanding how things work and influence positively - demonstrating the right values and behaviours and encouraging this in team members.

About us...

Like the modern Britain we serve, we’re evolving. Investing billions in our people, data and tech to transform the way we meet the ever-changing needs of our 26 million customers. We’re growing with purpose. Join us on our journey and you will too...

What you’ll need

We believe that people don\'t fit accurately into roles, and we value everyone\'s individual skills, experience, and knowledge - it\'s what makes you amazing! We are looking for someone who comes from a software engineering or database engineering background that has a solid understanding of DevOps practices, processes and supporting tools.

As a minimum to be considered, we would like to see demonstrated experience of:

• Craft and implement test plans that ensure all objectives are met.
• Implement and monitor test scripts to assess functionality, reliability, performance, and quality of our products.
• Identify and remedy defects within the production process, ensuring we deliver only the best.
• Compile and analyse statistical data to drive our quality standards.
• Investigate customer complaints and product issues, turning problems into solutions and opportunities for improvement.

It would be great if you also had...

• ISTQB certification
• GCP professional cloud developer certification
• At least one desktop/mobile cloud tool testing experience such as perfecto, BrowserStack or SauceLabs for compatibility testing
• A deep understanding of Java / JavaScript / NodeJS / Postman / TDD / BDD Best Practices
• Experience or working knowledge of security testing.

Our focus is to ensure we are inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms. We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity, or culture. We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative. And it is why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups. We are disability confident. So, if you would like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes:

• A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
• An annual performance-related bonus
• Share schemes including free shares.
• Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping.
