This role is a senior, hands-on QA engineering position where quality is embedded into engineering, Dev Ops and SRE, from design through to production.

• Producing clear test outcome reports that demonstrate quality and gaps
• Supporting and guiding other QA Engineers, sharing best practice

• Strong, hands-on experience as a Senior QA / QA Engineer
• Deep understanding of testing methodologies, both manual and automated
• Experience designing end-to-end test strategies, not just executing test cases
• Comfortable working with complex, distributed systems
• Experience testing hardware / devices is highly desirable (or a genuine interest in learning)
• Strong communicator who can collaborate across engineering, product and delivery
• A mindset focused on preventing defects and improving quality, not just finding bugs
• An interest in how QA fits within SRE / Dev Ops environments

• Work on real-world, critical systems where quality genuinely matters
• High level of ownership and influence over how quality is engineered
• A business that invests in technology, people and continuous improvement
• Opportunity to help shape a modern, automated QA capability within a scaling organisation
