Job Description

Who we are

Altus Group is a leading provider of software, data solutions, and independent advisory services to the global commercial real estate industry. Our businesses, Altus Analytics and Altus Expert Services, empower clients to analyze, gain market insight and recognize value on their real estate investments. Headquartered in Canada, we have approximately 2,300 employees around the world, with operations in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.

The opportunity

Altus Analytics is growing. We are looking for a Senior Automation Tester to join our team of testers.  Someone who is an automation best practices leader, and a self-starter.  Someone who can share their knowledge, guide their teammates, and coordinate testing tasks. We need a Senior Automation Tester who can show us the full potential of automation testing, and take us beyond the basics.  We want a champion and a strategizer.  Someone who is accountable, and constantly researching, tweaking, and testing. A Senior Automation Tester who knows their value and the importance of QA and who can liaise with all sides of the business to get the best results.

Who you are

You are an experienced Automation Tester who wants to step up into a Senior role. You enjoy working with big data sets in a MySQL database.  We need a Senior Automation Tester who both loves to work in Agile and yet is flexible to adapting methodologies and introducing new techniques to ensure the best work is being done in the most timely manner.

This is a Senior Automation Tester role for someone within an enterprise organization. A chance to move into a startup-like environment, and have your voice heard while introducing processes and change.  Someone who enjoys working in small teams, at a fast-pace, in two week sprints, jumping from discussions with product managers and developers to mentoring team members. Someone with outstanding communication, the ability to stand their ground on well researched opinions, and a go-get-it-done attitude.

What does your future look like?

This is an opportunity to increase your skills as a people leader and a chance to be a key contributor on a brand new platform that will be used on a global scale. This is a role for an Automation Tester who wants to build the automation testing processes and influence the implementation of best practices. Someone who wants to be supported in their career aspirations.

Here’s what our Senior Automation Tester will do:

  • Voice their opinion. Present logical arguments for and against automation processes in place, automation tools, and automation tasks.
  • Develop and maintain the existing automated test framework, ensuring that it is stable and reliable.
  • Manage the nightly automated test build.
  • Co-ordinate the automation tests tasks within the team, including code management and review.
  • Work with other members of the QA Team to develop automation across all areas of the system including financial reports, database, UI and Excel integration.
  • Provide support and training in automation to other members of the QA team.
  • Actively participate in weekly meetings; set and meet weekly sprint deliverables.
  • Work alongside the development team and product management team to resolve all issues as efficiently as possible.
  • Raise bugs and errors and communicate with developers to determine resolution.
  • Work with product team for clarification on requirements and functionality.
  • Conduct research, suggest solutions, and generally do whatever it takes.

Who are you?

  • A Senior Automation Tester or a Sr.Automation QA looking for a step up. You want to lead - and build - the process, mentor the team, and continue to work side-by-side doing hands-on testing.
  • A Computer Science grad.  You know how to approach testing in a Java environment with SQL databases using our essential tools Cucumber, Selenium and Webdriver.
  • Well-rounded.  You have exposure to multiple products and tools.  You have a range of experience implementing and maintaining an automation testing framework and you are able to offer guidance and advice based on deep knowledge of automation testing techniques and tools.
  • Not intimidated by large data sets.  Our system is a very large data management system.  You have experience working with data centric applications systems and you are comfortable with MySQL (or similar technologies).
  • A research geek. You enjoy researching new methodologies and clearly presenting reasoning for alternate technologies or processes.
  • Methodical, analytical, and detail oriented. You are a logical thinker; yet you are incredibly adept at thinking of all possible answers.   You love the meticulous nature of going through every aspect of a product, every line of code, to ensure we are only releasing the best.
  • An outstanding communicator. You have superior communication skills. You are concise, on point, and effective. You know how to listen and how to be heard.  You are able to communicate both user requirements and technical details clearly across the team.
  • An innovative problem-solver.  You are flexible, but process-focused and you know how to balance urgency with long-term payoff. You are on a continuous search for improvements. You are never in a panic but you know how to get work done quickly, and accurately. Integrity of test results is your priority.
