About us:

Go Virtual with GEEIQ - we’re the data platform helping brands like Walmart, Gucci, L’Oréal and Porsche navigate, measure and grow across virtual worlds. Think Ralph Lauren in Fortnite or Elton John in Roblox, that’s where we come in.

Based in London, our 40-person team combines platform data and human expertise to help the world’s biggest brands navigate this new marketing frontier. We believe the metaverse hype is over; brands now demand measurement, attribution and real ROI. That’s what we deliver.

Every idea is valued here - we’re collaborative, curious and ambitious, shaping how brands Go Virtual with confidence.

Our Engineering team plays a critical role developing and refining the GEEIQ data platform that helps and empowers our clients - from major brands to emerging players in various industries - to navigate the complexities of virtual worlds. The GEEIQ engineering team is extremely collaborative, working together to not only build a great platform, but also a great team. We are on a mission to build the leading platform for brands navigating virtual worlds, and the reliability and scalability of that platform are paramount to our success.

We’re looking for a Senior QA Engineer to join our growing engineering team and take ownership of quality across our product. This is a dedicated QA role, so you’ll play a key part in shaping testing practices, defining processes, and embedding quality deeply into our development lifecycle.

Our product is highly data-driven, with dashboards, reports, and complex business logic. You’ll work closely with developers, product, and design to ensure features are delivered correctly, reliably, and at a high standard - and that issues are caught as early as possible.

This role is both strategic and hands‑on: you’ll design and implement automation, perform manual testing when needed, and help the team aggressively reduce our bug backlog and technical debt.

• Own and drive the QA strategy across the product
• Design, implement, and maintain automated test suites (frontend, backend, and/or API)
• Perform manual testing where automation isn’t sufficient or appropriate
• Define and improve QA processes that integrate smoothly with our development workflow
• Work closely with product and design to ensure requirements are clearly understood and correctly delivered
• Act as a quality advocate throughout the development lifecycle (from early discovery to release)
• Help prioritize, manage, and reduce a significant bug backlog
• Support the team in identifying and addressing technical debt
• Collaborate daily with developers, Dev Ops, the solution architect, and engineering leadership
• Continuously improve testing tools, practices, and documentation

• Strong experience as a Senior QA Engineer (or similar role)
• Proven ability to build QA processes from scratch or significantly improve existing ones
• Solid experience with test automation (tools and frameworks are flexible)
• Confidence performing manual testing for complex or exploratory scenarios
• Experience testing data‑heavy applications, dashboards, or reporting systems
• Good understanding of modern software development practices and CI/CD
• Comfortable working in a small, fast‑moving startup environment
• Proactive, independent, and able to take ownership without heavy supervision
• Easy‑going, collaborative, and a strong team player

• Experience working as the first or only QA in a team
• Background in testing analytics, BI, or complex data pipelines
• Experience helping teams reduce long‑standing bug or tech‑debt backlogs
• Familiarity with agile or iterative development environments

• Hybrid model: 3 days per week in the office (Monday, Tuesday and Thursday), 2 days remote
• The office is always open and team members are welcome to come in more often if they like
• GEEIQ Day - 1 extra day of paid leave per year on top of annual leave allowance
• Regular Socials - paid socials
• Flexible Hours - core business hours 10am to 5pm
• Remote Working - 5 additional days per year (can be used to WFH or for International Working)
• Cycle to Work Scheme
