Senior Quality Assurance Engineer | £70,000 | Bristol (Hybrid)
Are you a technically minded QA and have the confidence to tell developers when they aren’t hitting the quality criteria?
If that type of role floats your boat, then keep reading! This role is to join a software house based in Bristol that specialises in cloud-based payroll software. They are first and foremost a technology company and are constantly evolving its tech stack to align with the latest technology advances. There is so much experience to gain from this role that will be invaluable for your career. You can expect a supportive culture that offers flexibility and a good work-life balance. They are very people-centric, and you will feel valued from day one - something that can often get lost in big businesses.

You will really need to ‘get under the hood’, help with quality failings and advise and direct improvements moving forward so you will need a good technical/coding background (any language is fine). This would be a great opportunity to expand your profile, working as the sole QA, you’ll work closely with the Developers and Product Owner providing valuable insight and really putting your mark on the direction of quality. You will need a keen eye for quality and be comfortable enough in your ability to challenge the developers and not just take them at their word.

- Selenium or similar test automation tools
- A solid technical understanding of software/ software development skills (any language)
