The role

We are looking for an Automation Test Engineer to help us strengthen the quality, reliability, and performance of these products.

You will join a collaborative Agile Scrum team, taking ownership of automated testing while helping the team continuously improve how quality is delivered.

You will:

• Design, develop, and maintain automated tests using Cypress.io and BDD practices with Cucumber, while contributing to our migration toward Playwright.

• Work alongside developers, product owners, and business analysts to understand requirements early and build effective test coverage.

• Own system, regression, and integration testing across multiple environments.

• Validate REST API integrations using tools such as Postman or Insomnia.

• Create and maintain effective test cases in QMetry, aligned with product requirements and the wider test strategy.

• Identify, investigate, and track defects through JIRA, partnering with developers to reproduce issues and get to the root of problems.

• Define appropriate test data and quality benchmarks, while identifying opportunities to improve our automation and testing practices.

• Contribute actively to sprint planning, stand-ups, backlog refinement, reviews, retrospectives, and quarterly PI planning.

• Support release readiness by planning test activity, reviewing release notes, and validating functionality before deployment.
