What’s the difference between an average QA team and a highly effective one?
Test automation, engineering focused, that’s what.
Although every software development team dreams in a fully automated test environment, test automation is not easy to implement.
And guess what? We don’t want average quality at FREE NOW.
For this reason, we are currently looking for an outstanding Quality Engineering Lead (m/f/d) to build and manage a team of high performing SDET / QA engineers m/f/d and provide technical mentorship for the implementation of test automation.
Your main focus will be to lead the testing process and activities at the same time that you (together with the team) will create and maintain an extensible test automation framework for our products on mobile and backend platforms.
We are not going to lie though, you will get your hands dirty as we expect you to write code!
Sounds interesting? Then this is what you need:
- A degree in Computer Science or similar.
- Proven track record of success as a team lead (at least 3 years).
- Understanding of various testing approaches and practices in order to design the overall testing methodology.
- Strong hands-on experience in setting up and running automation test on at least two different platforms (mobile / backend / frontend).
Experience with:
- OO programming
- continuous integration and release management
- code coverage tools to guide test design
- statistical analysis tools to eliminate code smells
- testing methodologies, the SDLC and Agile methodologies
- fluent English skills
Bonus points if you:
Have experience with Atlassian products (Bamboo, Bitbucket, Confluence, Jira).
Are familiar with tools such as:
- Espresso
- XCUITest
- MockMvc / RestAssured
- Grafana / Kibana
