We are looking for a talented and proactive Software Tester to help us maintain and improve the quality of our next-gen, real-time 3D data visualisation application.
We use a variety of web technologies and our development process often has similarities with games or graphics applications.
Join our agile team and take ownership of manually testing our application.
We are also expanding our automated testing - so if you have relevant experience and/or a motivation for this, do tell us!
Tools such as Playwright may be relevant and there will be an opportunity to take ownership of this. We're a team that likes to learn new skills, and to allow people the time to grow.
We maintain an agile process and regular release cycle, while improving and formalising our test processes across the board. We'd like you to guide us and help to achieve that!
The team has a diverse mix of skills with backgrounds in literature, medicine, maths, physics and computer science. As life-long learners we have a broad range of interests beyond our own specialisms.
We aim to foster an intellectually stimulating environment with an inclusive culture. We put emphasis on the craft of our work and sharing of knowledge within the team to ensure that we can all grow and improve together. We would love for you to contribute to that!
We start with a 45 minute introduction call to learn more about your experience, interests and background and share more details about our company and the role.
Our second stage is a homework exercise to create a test plan for an online product. When you return the homework to us, we'll schedule a 60 minute in person interview with you to talk through your work and explore more questions. This is also an opportunity to meet our team and see our office space.
The last stage is a 30 minute conversation and demo with our director, Tom Beddard. After this, we will be able to make a hiring decision.
We believe the interview process should be a positive experience regardless of the outcome.
If this interests you then email us and we can start a conversation.
