Who we are looking for:We are looking for a skilled
QA Automation Analyst to join our team as we continue to expand our feature scope. You will be maintaining and improving the end-to-end test suite for a sophisticated Microsoft Excel add-in that works across different platforms such as macOS, Windows, and web browsers.
Though
writing E2E test code and contributing to the design of the internal testing framework is core to this position, it is
not just a coding role where you'd work on predefined business scenarios.
Instead, we expect you to proactively
identify the product business logic that requires end-to-end testing, and then
analyse and design cross-cutting scenarios that test said logic
efficiently, logically, and in a
maintainable manner.
To succeed in this role, it's great to be a self-starter with a small company mindset; but above all, we're looking for
curious people who regularly touch the product by hand and deeply understand it before starting any coding work.
Does it sound like you? Do not hesitate and apply today 💪
