Matillion is the intelligent data integration platform.
We're changing how the world works with data – and we need driven, curious people who think big and move fast.

Join #TeamGreen, where the mission comes first, collaboration drives us forward, and everyone pulls in the same direction to make a dent in the universe bigger than ourselves.
The role
We're Matillion, the company behind Maia. Maia is the first AI Data Automation platform that rethinks manual data work by autonomously creating, managing, and evolving data products for humans and AI agents at scale.
Quality isn't an afterthought here; it's embedded into everything we ship. As a Staff Quality Engineer, you'll take a senior position within one of our small, focused engineering teams - bringing advanced technical guidance, deep hands‑on expertise and a relentless drive to embed quality across the entire development lifecycle.
This is a leadership role as much as a technical one. You'll set the quality standard for the team, champion automation‑first and shift‑left testing methodologies, and play a pivotal role in shaping the overall quality journey across Matillion's Engineering department. If you believe quality is everyone's responsibility and you have the experience to prove it - we want to hear from you.
What you will be doing
* Leading and overseeing the testing of Matillion products - hands‑on in the work while mentoring and guiding junior engineers to raise the bar across the team.
* Designing and driving robust quality frameworks that span automation, security, accessibility and performance testing - with an automation‑first mindset at the core.
* Championing shift‑left testing across the development lifecycle, embedding quality from design through to deployment via CI/CD pipelines.
* Taking a leadership role in cross‑functional collaboration - building a culture of quality excellence and elevating standards across the wider Engineering organisation.
* Identifying areas for improvement in the quality journey, driving continuous iteration and playing an active role in talent acquisition and team development.
What we are looking for
* Proven expertise in end‑to‑end testing of SaaS applications across complex distributed systems - including risk‑based, exploratory, regression, security and usability testing approaches.
* Experience with at least one major cloud platform (AWS, GCP or Azure) and advanced knowledge of databases and SQL.
* A genuine QA mindset - you challenge norms, push back when quality is being compromised and continuously improve how the team works.
* Autonomy and inquisitiveness in equal measure - you dig into problems independently, understand causes not just effects, and bring a growth mindset to everything you do.
At Matillion, we are committed to providing compensation in line with market standards based on the role, job family, job level and country. This role’s estimated annual salaried pay range for this position is £66,000 - £99,000. The final salary will be based on your relevant skills, experience, and qualifications demonstrated in the hiring process.
Benefits
* Company Equity
* 30 days holiday + bank holidays
* Health insurance
* Life Insurance
* Access to mental health support
