Job description
Software Development Engineer in Test - SDET, West London, £70-110K, bonus, pension, private medical. You must have a solid background as a SDET, ideally with Java although C# will also be considered. You must love testing and continuous delivery / improvement and be able to demonstrate where you have made changes to improve testing environments.
This role requires 2 days a week in a West London office. Friday afternoons are set aside for personal development time where you can explore different testing ideas, research new test tools, or play around with one of our environments. There is also regularly scheduled time to improve your experience and reduce testing and technical debt - directed by the team.
About the position:
• Testing is core to what we do; the test analyst is the team’s test specialist (everyone can and will write tests) and you will direct where that effort goes.
• We have a very mature testing setup so much of the work is expanding on what we already have but we’re always up for adding new types of tests.
• You will come up with the majority of test cases, functional and non-functional testing approaches and testing ideas as well as being able to write code to support them.
• Collaborative office environment with constant pairing and plenty of social activities.
• Work across the stack to solve a problem - you might be working with a performance critical component, integrating a new blockchain, or designing a greenfield cloud based system.
• Regular opportunities to learn and develop yourself with internal tech talks, ability to travel to conferences, and dedicated time for your personal development.
The technical environment:
• Backend: Distributed, event-driven core Java (+0% of the code-base), MySQL, Kafka
• Frontend: Javascript, Vue.js
• Deployment: Kubernetes, Nomad, AWS
• Data analytics: Python & Jupyter notebooks, Parquet, Docker
• Testing: JUnit, JMH, JCStress, Jenkins, Selenium, plus many, many in-house tools written in Java
• OS: Linux (Fedora for development, Rocky in production)
This is just a flavour of what you’ll be working with, and isn’t a list of requirements!
About you:
• Be passionate about testing - bad tests and bad code offend you!
• Be able to learn a domain and combine that with your knowledge of the code, architecture and testing to come up with test cases.
• Work in a dynamic environment enabled by fast feedback; the heart of our ethos
• Pair programming in small teams of developers and testers (you should be comfortable with reading & writing code)
• A desire to share knowledge and learn from like-minded peers
• Work across a variety of teams covering a range of domains and technologies
• Write reliable tests - we ship only when code is ready, we need to trust our feedback.
