Wilmslow, United Kingdom Waters Full time
Overview

This is a great opportunity to come and join the Biologics software engineering group. We're looking for a Software Test Engineer to join an agile team focused on full-stack development. In this role, you'll play a key role in helping us to create scientific software that makes a real impact to people's lives, whether its developing COVID tests and vaccines, helping scientists detect cancer, ensuring food safety or helping scientists develop biodegradable plastics - our work has a real benefit to the world

Working as a tester in an agile environment with developers, scientists, product management, and QA, you'll be involved from an early stage in all project activities, from requirements analysis through to release planning. The testing itself focuses on web-based applications running on our waters_connect Platform. The role covers everything from functional and performance testing to usability tests, acceptance tests, automated tests and more.

What can we offer you?
  • A plan for your personal development in your own area of specialism, pursuing this with the support of your manager to undertake the training and learning to progress. With 10% learning time for all employees.
  • Competitive salary.
  • Flexible working hours and a hybrid approach.
  • 25 days annual leave.
  • Private health and dental insurance.
  • Contributory based pension scheme.
  • EAP (Employee Assistance Program).

2-year temporary contract. This position is a temporary role.

Responsibilities

As a Software Test Engineer, you main responsibilities would include:

  • Working collaboratively as part of a cross-discipline agile team to incrementally deliver software.
  • Understanding customer requirements and creating test cases from those requirements.
  • Ensuring the test approach is appropriate for the project or task.
  • Discuss overall risks and trends.
  • Performing manual/exploratory tests on early-stage code.
  • Contributing to the definition of an executable specification, written in Gherkin.
  • Performing usability, functional, performance, exploratory and acceptance testing as the situation and product demands.

Qualifications

We would love to hear from you if you:
  • Experience in software testing.
  • Experience of planning, estimating and scheduling of testing activities.
  • Are keen and quick to learn new things, both in terms of testing techniques and the science behind our software.
  • Enjoy engaging with others to understand and tackle problems.
  • Feel comfortable talking to stakeholders to capture requirements, feedback and track down bugs.
  • Share our ambition to continually improve and develop phenomenal products.
We're also interested in candidates:
  • With a degree (B.Sc, M.Sc. or Ph.D.) in a science related discipline.
  • With test automation experience, including experience of Test Automation tools and techniques (e.g. Selenium, Specflow, SoapUI, etc.).

Don't be put off if you don't feel you match all of the qualities and qualifications listed above; we don't expect a complete match. Mostly, we're looking for a talented software test engineer with a passion for making good products.

Working pattern and location. We offer hybrid working, which means some working in the office each week. This role is based at our Wilmslow office; candidates should be within a reasonable commutable distance.
