Quality Engineer

About Us:

What makes the difference between a product that's engaging, compelling, and easy to use and one that's frustrating, broken, and complicated? The answer is user experience. Here at UserTesting, our mission is to help our customers create great experiences. We enable every organisation to deliver the best customer experience powered by human insight.

About The Team:

We are Quality Engineering. Our goal is to deliver a great experience for our customers, at the pace UserTesting needs while supporting sustainable company growth.

The Opportunity:

UserTesting is looking for an excellent Quality Engineer, with a passion for innovation and collaboration to join our new Edinburgh office. As a member of the engineering team, you will be responsible for performing proactive end to end testing and verification for ongoing product releases, managing defect resolution, and helping to ensure the continuous delivery of features. We consider test engineers an integral partner of our test driven culture.

The right candidate will collaborate effectively as part of wider engineering team with a focus on SaaS projects. You should have solid experience in regression testing design and execution as well as ability to debug and troubleshoot problems, not simply identify them.

You'll be given autonomy to define testing strategies for features, and partner with Software Engineers to implement the automated testing plan across multiple application layers. You'll rigorously test product functionality and investigate all potential product defects, while working closely with software developers and stakeholders/peers and functions outside of engineering (remote and co-located in the UK and USA).

You will design and manage comprehensive test plans for each feature release, and work to identify root causes of issues and partner with engineering team members to resolve, as well as documenting and managing the process for reporting production defects.

What we're looking for:

• Functional/regression testing design and execution experience using multiple techniques such as test automation, exploratory testing, testing in production, and others.
• Working knowledge of Ruby, Java or other development experience
• Familiarity with the SQL database concepts and ability to analyse and write queries
