Description
As one of the Best Big Companies to Work For, we have a rich history of loving our customers and looking after our teams.
We understand that success is achieved through our people, and we are searching for a committed and passionate Technical QA to join our growing business.
Purpose of the role
We’re looking for someone who is automation-first but still comfortable getting hands-on with manual testing.
You’ll be working closely with developers, product teams, delivery, and other QAs to make sure everything we release is solid before it reaches customers. This role is fast paced, so you’ll need to be confident switching between writing automation, manual testing, and supporting releases.
You’ll also help move the team forward by improving automation, sharing knowledge, and keeping things simple and maintainable.
What you’ll be doing
1. Writing and maintaining automation tests (using Python + Playwright).
2. Working on both new features and regression packs.
3. Picking up Jira tickets, testing them manually, and then automating where it makes sense.
4. Supporting regular releases (release checks, regression runs, testing fixes).
5. Running and monitoring automation pipelines (Bitbucket pipelines).
6. Reviewing test results and debugging failures.
7. Reviewing other people’s automation scripts and suggesting improvements
8. Working closely with devs, BAs, and product teams to understand requirements properly.
9. Balancing manual vs automation work based on business priorities.
10. Using tools like Jira / Xray / Testrail for test management, defect logging and tracking.
11. Keeping up to date with new tools, AI, and better ways of testing.
What we’re looking for
12. Strong experience in real-world test automation projects.
13. Good experience with Python and Playwright.
14. Comfortable using Git daily (commits, branches, PRs, code reviews).
15. Experience working with remote repos (GitHub or Bitbucket).
16. Understanding of CI/CD pipelines (Bitbucket pipelines preferred).
17. Strong code debugging skills.
18. Good understanding of automation frameworks and best practices.
19. Comfortable working in Agile/Scrum teams.
20. Good communication – you can explain issues clearly and work with different teams.
Nice to have:
21. Experience with Appium.
22. Experience working with Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) or similar eCommerce platforms.
Interview process
This will be an in-person interview.
You’ll have:
23. A technical discussion about your testing experience.
24. A practical coding task using Playwright + Python.
25. A practical demonstration of your understanding of Git (using commands, working with branches, commits, and pull requests).
