Why we need this role
This person is to ensure that the capability we build for our 2 award winning B2B customer-facing Network On Demand applications is of high quality to continue to delight our customers. This involves joining our QA team and working in a fast-moving Agile/Kanban model. This person will have good experience of testing APIs, back-ends and front-ends using a combination of automated and manual testing techniques.
The team is small and nimble, and as a result has made amazing progress in the industry, but as we build new features into our applications we want to make sure we don't accidentally break something. We work in a business with lots of other applications which are integrated with one-another, so interaction with our peers is key to ensure that our testing is collaborative, effective, and robust.
Sometimes we also have to test the water with new stuff, and so there will be a need to develop spikes/proof-of-concepts to evaluate tools and approaches to ensure the evolution of our testing approach makes best use of new technologies and techniques.

Typical tasks and responsibilities will include:
Understanding requirements
Designing tests to ensure that requirements are delivered with high quality
Performing manual testing
Automating manual tests
Working with other testing teams across the organisation, as well as those performing end-to-end testing spanning across multiple applications
Documenting defects through written descriptions, screenshots and video capture
Triaging defects and working with developers to get them resolved.
Suggesting and analyzing new techniques and approaches to make testing more efficient and effective.
Transforming how we think about testing so the team starts testing as soon as we understand the requirement, and not after we have finished writing code

Automating UI and API testing using a range of tools such as:Selenium
Cypress
