Full job descriptionQA Engineer — Hybrid / Remote (UK-based)
No sponsorship is offered
We’re recruiting on behalf of one of Europe’s fastest-growing software companies — named in the Financial Times’ fastest-growing list (2025) and voted one of The Sunday Times’ Best Places to Work (2025). They build AI and automation software for people-intensive industries, and their engineering team is a collaborative, thoughtful group that genuinely cares about quality and meaningful product outcomes.
They’re now looking for a QA Engineer to join them.
The role
This isn’t a "receive specs and test" position. You’ll help shape them. Working closely with Product Managers and Software Engineers, you’ll take end-to-end ownership of quality — from initial feature design through to production release — with a focus on manual, exploratory, and context-driven testing. You’ll be the voice of the user, challenging assumptions, identifying risk, and ensuring every release feels polished and intuitive.
What you’ll be doing
*Taking end-to-end responsibility for product quality, from design phase to release
*Designing and executing thorough exploratory tests across a complex web application, going well beyond predefined cases to uncover critical edge cases
*Actively participating in product discussions, challenging design and implementation decisions to uphold high standards
*Identifying and communicating technical and UX risks clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
*Using logs, production issues, and usage patterns to guide your testing and prioritise risk
*Spotting usability issues and providing actionable UI/UX feedback to support a seamless customer experience
*Helping define and refine QA processes as the engineering team continues to scale
Who they’re looking for
You’ll thrive here if you’re a self-starter who’s comfortable with pace and ownership. You naturally explore systems, pivot quickly based on priorities, and have a keen eye for UI/UX. You use AI tools practically in your day-to-day and know where their limits lie. Above all, you’re firm on quality standards and know how to deliver feedback constructively.
Requirements
*Solid experience in manual testing of complex web applications (essential)
*Experience in CRM integrations (desirable)
*Data fluency — validating integrity or working with data-heavy systems (desirable)
*Exposure to test automation (desirable)
Benefits
*25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
*MacBook and any additional tech or software you need
*Flexible working arrangements
*Private health, dental, and vision insurance through Aviva
*Income protection insurance
*Extended mental health cover and Employee Assistance Programme
*Compassionate leave policy
*Private pension contributions through Royal London
*Monthly company social events and regular in-person hackathons
