Test Engineer at ClearScore

Description
We’re looking for a Test Engineer to join our growing technology team here at ClearScore. A healthy mix of testing, analytical and exploratory skills are key if you want to be part of our cross-functional team of developers, designers, data analysts and product managers. You’ll be part of a whole eco-development-system of building, testing and deploying into production.

Our Test Engineers work with:

• Every member of our delivery team, driving our ways of working and promoting ClearScore principles
• A web testing framework to test and release our global ReactJS app (we’re currently using Cypress)
• A choice of API tools to test our backend microservices
• Spinnaker and Jenkins to build and run our pipelines
• Performance testing - our current tool of choice is Gatling
• A robust native app testing framework to deliver new features to our global apps
• A Quality Assistance program that involves working closely with developers and stops stories being ‘thrown over the fence’
• Peer-to-peer review to improve our code and learn from it

Requirements

• Experience coding in any language. Our preference is JavaScript/TypeScript although we also use Scala, Swift and Kotlin in the company. You'll be required to walk through pull requests in a variety of different languages.
• Experience working with developers in Agile teams – we work with developers, not against them.
• Experience breaking down requirements into acceptance criteria.
• Familiarity with Jira or other similar bug tracking systems.
• You must be comfortable with ambiguity, part of your role will be to identify gaps in our understanding.
• Experience working with Git (we use GitHub) to raise and review pull requests.
• Comfortable with the command line (you don't need to be an expert in Vim, but a lot of our tools run from the terminal).

Benefits

• Holidays – 20 paid holidays and a “duvet day” on your birthday
• Medical Aid
• Pension
• Flexible work hours and the ability to work from home
• Flexible, generous and personalised maternity and paternity plans
• Monthly team events and office days out that we get to choose, and company events at the end of each race and retro
