We are subject matter experts guiding our teams to think critically about all aspects of delivery not just functional but for example in areas like security, performance, accessibility and usability.

What you’ll bring to the role

Quality Assurance in software, testing large scale web based applications.  Experience working in an agile environment with continuous release mechanisms.  Experience working within a complex microservice architecture.
