📋 Description

• Partner with engineers, product managers, and designers to build quality into features from the start - not bolt it on at the end. • Contribute directly to product code where it improves reliability, testability, and observability. • Help shape system design decisions to reduce defects before they happen. • Design and implement robust, maintainable automation across API, integration, and UI layers. • Evolve our testing approach using modern engineering practices - focusing on fast feedback, meaningful and reliable results, and developer productivity. • Improve CI/CD pipelines so quality checks are fast, reliable, and genuinely useful (not just gates). • Experiment with AI to improve how we test and validate software - from intelligent test generation, smarter failure analysis and self-healing approaches. • Build or integrate tools that reduce manual effort and increase confidence in releases. • Help establish a strong, pragmatic quality culture that developers actually value. • Ensure quality is a shared responsibility across the team, not owned by a single individual. • Share ideas, mentor others, and contribute to how we continuously improve as a team. • Influence engineering practices beyond your immediate team.

🎯 Requirements

• Strong software engineering experience (JavaScript, TypeScript, or similar). • A track record of building or improving automated testing in real-world systems. • Experience working in modern development environments with CI/CD and cloud platforms. • A practical mindset: you care about outcomes, not just frameworks or theory. • Hands-on experience applying AI within quality engineering or testing contexts - for example, test generation, failure analysis, test optimisation, or similar. • Ability to go beyond basic coding assistants and use AI to solve real testing or quality problems in innovative ways.
