Position Overview

We're looking for a senior QA engineer who owns quality across a product rather than a feature. You will define how testing is done, decide where the real risk sits, and coach less experienced testers.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the quality strategy for a product: risk areas, test levels, and entry and exit criteria.
  • Define what gets tested manually, what gets automated, and where the line between them sits.
  • Design test approaches for the hard cases: concurrency, permissions, payments, and data migration.
  • Run and coach exploratory testing so it produces findings rather than reassurance.
  • Own release readiness decisions and the evidence behind them.
  • Analyse defect trends and escaped bugs, and feed the causes back into how the team works.
  • Mentor junior and mid-level QA engineers on test design and defect analysis.
  • Represent quality in refinement and design reviews, before the code exists.

Skills & Qualifications

  • 5-7 years of professional software testing on web and mobile products.
  • Proven ability to build a test strategy for a product from scratch.
  • Strong API testing skills against REST and gRPC, including auth and error paths.
  • Confident SQL for verifying application state and preparing test data.
  • Experience with risk-based testing and with defending a no-go decision under pressure.
  • Experience coaching other testers and reviewing their test design.
  • Clear written communication; able to summarise release risk for people who do not test.

Nice to Have

  • Enough automation ability to read and extend an existing suite.
  • Experience with performance, security, or accessibility testing.
  • Experience in a regulated or payments domain.
  • Familiarity with observability tooling for spotting issues after release.

What You'll Gain

  • Competitive salary.
  • Fully remote — work from wherever you're most productive.
  • Annual learning budget for books, courses, and conferences.
  • Top-tier hardware and software tooling.
  • Private health insurance and flexible time off.
