Job: Test Engineering Lead

Jobing Description

Test Engineering Lead

There s a sign (jokingly) hung in our office that reads: I don t always test my code but when I do, I do it in production. If reading the previous sentence made you wince in pain, then have we got the role for you. Working within our Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) engineering and operations team, you ll live at the nexus of efficient forward progress of our platforms and fulfilling our mantra of Uptime is the Bottom Line. You ll translate project plans into the key test conditions that must be verified prior to deployment, engineer automated test suites and frameworks, and mentor our technical teams in how to best maintain a balance of quality and efficiency.

Required Skills

* Fluent in Python, PHP and/or Perl
* Solid experience with xUnit test patterns
* Experience with web application testing with Selenium or equivalent framework
* Identify key unit, functional, and verification test conditions based on functional and technical specifications
* Develop test suites that prove the project requirements have been met
* Be a subject matter expert on test-driven development and quality assurance
* A positive attitude toward quality improvement and mentoring; rather than toss broken code over a fence to a developer, you lock-arms and collectively work toward a solution.

Desired Skills

* Engineering degree or equivalent experience
* Experience with Atlassian Bamboo, Selenium, and unit testing frameworks in Perl, Python, and PHP
