Job Description:

Software Developer in Test, Java, Cucumber, Selenium, Agile, Jira, Remote working.

The Role:
Working within a small Agile team, you will work closely with Developers and Business Analysts to:

• Drive a ‘Quality-First’ team culture.

Essential Skillsets:
• Experience creating or extending automation frameworks using Java / Maven / Junit / Cucumber-JVM / Selenium Webdriver.
• Experience of using development design patterns within test automation (more than just Page Object / Page Factory frameworks designs).
• An understanding of core REST API testing concepts such as HTTP methods, headers, and status/response codes.
• Ability to research and define multiple solutions to problems independently.
• Ability to ‘hit the ground running’ and begin contributing to the development process within days/weeks.
• Experience working within an Agile team.
• Experience using Jira and Confluence.
• Experience writing test suites, cases, and steps.
• Experience analysing existing systems and outlining ideal test coverage.
• Experience of performing exploratory testing on complex systems.

• Experience of Performance testing (ideally using JMeter).
