The Role

We are seeking an experienced and hands-on Senior QA Automation Engineer to play a strong leadership role, owning automated testing across our Trading platform and helping to set the QA vision for future releases. You will architect, design, build, and run comprehensive test suites, integrate them into our CI / CD toolchain, and drive quality from planning through release in a fast-paced Agile team.

You will be responsible for creating and executing test plans before product launches to ensure software runs smoothly and work in an Agile environment in a multi-disciplined team to develop and create significant coverage of automation testing of software applications within an existing framework. This position requires automation and manual testing (where features are not yet covered by automation).

We embrace a culture of collaboration and experimentation while striving to encourage all team members to focus on continuous improvement and learning. We openly welcome diverse perspectives and people who are not afraid to challenge assumptions and prior ways of working. Otherwise, how do we innovate, learn, and grow as a team and individuals?
