THE ROLE

Festicket is growing fast and we're looking for an experienced QA Engineer to lead our QA Team and take a lead in automated testing design and implementation.

Requirements

  • You have a minimum of 5 years experience in QA, with experience designing and executing automated, end-to-end integration tests in API-driven web applications.

  • You have excellent knowledge of the Software Development & Testing Life Cycle.
  • You have experience coding/scripting test automation (preferably in Javascript).
  • You have excellent knowledge of Quality and Test strategies/processes and you would be excited about the opportunity to help define ours.

  • You understand the need for a focus on delivery and you want to help us to continuously deliver faster with better quality.
  • You love exploratory testing and you know when to use it.
  • You are technically proficient and a logical thinker, with the ability to learn independently.
  • You are detail orientated but can also see the bigger picture.
  • It would be great if you have experience in the travel, music, or e-commerce industries - but it’s not a requirement.
