Senior Quality Engineer

A highly skilled, autonomous Senior Quality Engineer is needed to ensure the quality of first-class web experiences and custom digital products. This is a shift-left, advocacy-first role — not a checkbox function. Expect real ownership, technical excellence, and direct collaboration with engineering, design, and product teams solving real-world problems at scale.

What You’ll Do

• Execute hands-on testing of responsive web and mobile applications and underlying infrastructure
• Proactively advocate for clean code, process refinements, and continuous improvements
• Partner with product teams to develop and maintain robust testing strategies with a shift-left mindset
• Estimate and scope testing efforts and execution timelines while staying adaptable to requirement changes
• Communicate test progress with clear, data-driven messaging to support informed decision-making
• Lead requirements gathering, test execution, and regression testing across all functional systems
• Support release cycles through scope planning, effort estimation, and final sign-off
• Actively contribute to a Quality Practice Community to drive collaborative learning and innovation
• Drive continuous improvement and knowledge sharing across the engineering organisation

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience as an autonomous, self-sufficient engineer who stays tactical under pressure
• Expert ability to design stable, deterministic, flakiness-free tests across the full stack
• Proven experience setting up and maintaining automation frameworks and libraries
• Hands-on experience with Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, Katalon, and Robot Framework
• Ability to integrate test frameworks into CI/CD pipelines — GitHub Actions or Jenkins
• Deep experience with API testing (Postman) and load testing — JMeter or Blazemeter
• Ability to read and troubleshoot HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript, PHP, or Java
• Strong knowledge of WCAG 2.1 AA+ accessibility standards and modern security guidelines
• Proficiency in detecting memory issues and optimising application performance
• Expert-level use of JIRA and Confluence for defect logging, test planning, and reporting
• Experience with AI-assisted testing tools for test case generation and script development — highly desirable
• Strong mentorship mindset with the ability to build a healthy, collaborative engineering culture

Education

• Relevant engineering degree or equivalent hands-on industry experience
