About Fogsphere

Fogsphere is a London‑based innovator focused on transforming workplace and urban safety through advanced AI, Computer Vision, and Industrial IoT. Built on a principled "Edge‑to‑Fog‑to‑Cloud" architecture, our platform turns passive CCTV cameras and sensors into proactive hazard detectors, capable of identifying threats like missing PPE, fire, smoke, restricted access violations, and more—in real time and at scale. This helps organizations across industries—from manufacturing, construction, oil & gas, and healthcare to smart cities—reduce workplace accidents by up to 90%, ensure regulatory compliance (EHS), and gain powerful operational insights. Fogsphere's intuitive no‑code visual workflows, hyper‑scalable Kubernetes‑based infrastructure, and commitment to ethical AI and privacy (GDPR compliance) make it a user‑friendly yet enterprise‑grade solution.

  to identify, reproduce, and document bugs and performance issues.
• Participate in
  code reviews
  and contribute to improving
  code quality, testing coverage, and deployment stability
  .
• Learn and apply
  DevOps and SRE principles
  — observability, monitoring, and automated recovery.
• Explore
  infrastructure-as-code
  , containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and cloud-based automation.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in
  Computer Science, Engineering
  , or equivalent practical experience.

  JavaScript
  programming.
• Understanding of
  software testing principles
  ,
  version control (Git)
  , and
  CI/CD basics
  .
• Curiosity for
  QA
  ,
  DevOps
  , and
  reliability engineering
  practices.
• Strong attention to detail,
  analytical thinking
  , and
  problem-solving mindset
  .
• Good communication and collaboration skills in English.

Nice-to-Have (or "Good to Grow Into")

• Experience with
  testing libraries
  (pytest, unittest, mock, Playwright, MochaJS, …).
• Exposure to
  REST API testing
  ,
  Selenium
  , or other automation tools.
• Familiarity with
  Azure DevOps
  ,
  Docker
  ,
  Linux environments
  , or
  cloud-based CI/CD systems
  .
• Interest in
  site reliability
  ,
  monitoring tools
  (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana), or
  infrastructure automation
  .
• Enthusiasm for
  learning
  ,
  experimentation
  , and
  continuous improvement
  .
