What you'll do

  • Develop and maintain automated tests – Write and execute automated scripts using JavaScript or TypeScript and the Playwright framework to extend test coverage.
  • Perform manual testing & feature validation – Balance time with manual regression and exploratory testing to ensure full product validation where automation is not yet sufficient.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional squads – work together with developers, product managers, and QA peers to explore new features, clarify requirements early, and push the quality bar higher with each release.
  • Identify, log, and troubleshoot issues – investigate bugs using logs, browser dev tools, and test outputs, documenting clear steps to reproduce in Jira and contributing to shared knowledge bases.

What we're looking for

  • 3-5 years of experience in testing web applications within a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) company.
  • Proven track record in balancing manual and automated testing, with a strong readiness to champion an automation-first mindset.
  • Strong debugging and analytical skills, with a proactive approach to exploratory testing and finding the root cause of issues.
  • Fluent English communication skills, allowing you to clearly convey test results, document findings, and provide structured updates to your team.
  • JavaScript/TypeScript & Playwright
  • Version Control (Git)
  • CI/CD Integrations
  • Strong Debugging & Analytical Skills

Nice to have

  • Experience with API and backend service testing using Python and pytest, expanding coverage beyond web UI applications.
  • Familiarity with performance or security testing tools to help identify bottlenecks and vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle.
  • Experience in a fast-paced, high-growth working environment.

Benefits

AI-driven approach: we highly prioritise innovation and provide access to market-leading AI tools to automate workflows and continuously evolve how we work.

  • Personal development: Individual learning budget and the opportunity to attend annual conferences and meetups.
  • Health & flexibility: flexible public holidays and a weekly wellness hour to support a great work-life balance.
  • Modern tech gear, ensuring you have the absolute best setup to succeed.
