- Experience working in Agile or Lean development environments
- A solid understanding of test automation principles and quality best practices

What's the hiring process?
After application review, shortlisted candidates will be invited to complete a short one-way video interview via Hireflix. The questions are written by our Director of Engineering, and all responses are reviewed manually. We do not use AI to assess candidate responses or in any part of the recruitment process.
You'll then have a short call with our People team to discuss your application, motivations, availability, salary expectations, and any questions you have about the role or process.
Following this, you'll meet our Director of Engineering for a 30-minute technical discussion covering your QA background, automation experience, and approach to testing.
The next stage is a practical technical interview with the hiring team, lasting around 1.5–2 hours. This includes a manual debugging task followed by writing an automation test in Playwright. You won't need to prepare anything in advance, other than having a laptop and a stable connection.
The final stage is an informal conversation with our CTO, giving you the chance to learn more about our technology strategy, the team, and how this role contributes to the wider department.
We use the one-way video stage to give every candidate the same opportunity to answer role-relevant QA questions, and all responses are reviewed manually by the hiring team. Please keep an eye out for an email from Hireflix, as this will be the first stage of the process following application review.
