Job description

Overview

I have a brand new role for a Senior QA Test engineer to join my client based in North Bristol (Close to Filton). The team works hybrid, so we need someone who's happy to be in the office three days a week.

You'd be joining a rapidly growing software house, and it's honestly such an exciting time to come onboard as they're scaling the team fast. They really are the nicest bunch and work on software that protects people on the front line, emergency service workers, soldiers, anyone who needs to stay safe in high risk situations. Because of the nature of their work, they'll need someone who can be put through security clearance, so you'll need to either hold a British passport or have lived in the UK for the last 5 plus years.

Key Responsibilities

You'll be part of a lovely and growing team of eight Software Testers who are embedded into development teams working in an Agile environment. The team are working on products that span mobile apps, connected devices and web based platforms.

As a senior, your role will be very much hands on, but also involve championing and helping to improve best practices across testing and the teams and also helping with influencing test strategy. Whilst Automation isn't essential, it would be a big bonus as they're keen to build this out. They currently use Playwright for their web apps and want to introduce automation across mobile too so there is a blank canvass on that front.

Ideal Candidate

They're looking for an experienced Senior Software Tester with hands on mobile app/device testing, experienced who's tested across mobile apps, connected devices and web based platforms with any automation a huge bonus.

Benefits

The culture is genuinely brilliant, a lovely working environment with on site parking, a gym, and free breakfast and lunch every day.
