About Us:

ME+EM is one of the UK’s fastest-growing luxury fashion brands. As a direct-to- consumer business we operate in a truly omnichannel way, with an extremely successful online store, monthly mailings and stores in London, Edinburgh and concessions in Harrods and Selfridges. Our exciting growth continues in spring 2024 with the opening of our first US stores.


At ME+EM we are an entrepreneurial, creative, and passionate group of people. We work hard, are enthusiastic to learn and are not afraid to take risks. Everyone contributes to our success at all levels, and that precisely what makes being a member of the team so rewarding.


Our office and stores are always busy and fast paced, but we work just as hard to make sure it’s fun, with social activities and biannual parties. We pride ourselves on being approachable, supportive, and welcoming and ensure that everyone’s hard work is rewarded. It takes all these things to build a strong, successful business and our door is always open to new talent ready to contribute to our growth and evolution.

About the Role:

We’re hiring a QA Automation Engineer for ME+EM.

The team currently consists of a single multidisciplinary autonomous squad, responsible for crafting best in class customer experiences across our customer facing apps. The successful candidate will be joining our second squad and should have a proven track record of developing and maintaining automated test scripts for end-to-end testing of a web application.

Responsibilities:

● Develop and maintain automated test scripts for end-to-end testing of our website.

● Collaborate with Software Engineers to integrate automated tests into the CI/CD pipeline.

● Work with Product Managers and Product Designers to understand product requirements and design test cases that ensure comprehensive test coverage.

● Identify, document, and track defects and issues through to resolution.

● Perform code reviews and provide feedback to ensure the quality and maintainability of test scripts.

● Execute automated tests and analyse results to identify potential issues and areas for improvement.

● Continuously enhance and optimise the test automation framework.

● Stay up-to-date with industry best practices and emerging technologies in QA automation.

● Participate in Agile/Scrum ceremonies and contribute to the continuous improvement of the development process.

Skills:

● Proven experience as a QA Automation Engineer or similar role.

● Strong proficiency in programming languages such as Javascript.

● Hands-on experience with test automation tools and frameworks such as Jest and Playwright, or similar.

● Familiarity with CI/CD tools like Vercel and GitHub Actions, or similar.

● Understanding of web technologies, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and APIs.

● Experience with version control systems such as Git.

● Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.

● Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a cross-functional team environment.

● Experience in the fashion or retail industry is a plus.

Employee Benefits:

  • 33 days annual leave for full time employees (25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays)
  • ​A day off to celebrate your birthday.
  • ​Pension Scheme
  • ​Group Life Insurance
  • ​Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
