• Drive the implementation and evolution of automated testing frameworks, ensuring integration into our CI/CD pipelines.
• Own the structure and health of test suites and regression packs, helping teams keep them lean, relevant, and valuable.
• Support squads in front-end, API, and end-to-end testing, using tools like Playwright, Cypress, Postman, RestAssured and other modern frameworks.
• Facilitate and promote BDD and 3-amigos sessions, helping clarify requirements and prevent misunderstandings before they happen.
• Help engineers understand and own quality; coaching without gatekeeping, advising without blocking.
• Perform and organise performance testing with tools such as K6, JMeter.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure cross-squad functionality and integration is properly tested.
• Get involved in the testing cycle, helping to investigate issues, write tests, support on manual QA, and signing-off changes.

Preferred

• Computer Science or Information Technology degree, Diploma or similar
• ASTQB ISTQB Advanced Certification
• Certified Automation Tester (i.e. Selenium, Cypress, Playwright)

Non Negotiable

• Hands-on Leadership of UAT Defect Triage, driving this process, including daily coordination with cross-functional stakeholders (Product, Engineering, and Delivery) to evaluate, prioritize, and drive resolution of defects based on reproducibility, business impact, and release scope

Personal Attributes

• Quality mindset – deeply values software quality and strives for continuous improvement across teams
• Strong leadership – able to guide, motivate, and hold team members accountable without micromanaging

• Adaptability – comfortable with change and able to pivot priorities in fast-paced, agile environments
• Detail-oriented – thorough in reviewing test cases, strategies, and outcomes without losing sight of the bigger picture
• Ownership-driven – takes responsibility for the overall health of the QA process and quality outcomes

Interview Process

We want our process to be fair and transparent, so it's only right that we tell you what the various interview stages are:

Stage 1 – We'll do a screener call with our recruitment team, where you can learn a bit more about Collinson, our values and we can confirm what you're looking for in a new role.

Stage 2 – We'll do a short call with one of our Engineering Managers for around 30 minutes, who will tell you more about the team, our projects and ask questions about your career history and suitability for the role.

Stage 3 – You will do a technical test (at home), and we'll review your solution and approach to it.

Stage 4 – This is final and main stage, where we'll meet you for around 1 hour, and you'll get to spend time with different members of the engineering team (Engineering Manager and QA Test Lead). We'll also go through your technical test and ask questions on some of your decisions and implementation.
