Software Automation QA Engineer

On-site in Loughton IG10

We are looking for a skilled Software Automation QA Engineer to join a well-established financial services technology team.

• Supporting basic API checks and debugging using tools such as Postman

• Working closely with developers, product teams and QA colleagues in an Agile environment

• Helping improve test quality, release confidence and overall engineering standards

What we are looking for

• Strong hands-on experience with Selenium and C#

• Practical experience using SpecFlow or Reqnroll in a BDD setup

• Solid understanding of Page Object Model and good automation design principles

• Ability to troubleshoot issues across UI and API layers

• A detail focused mindset with a proactive and structured working style

• Good communication skills and a collaborative approach

Nice to have

• Experience with API testing tools such as Postman

• Exposure to CI CD pipelines and modern QA engineering practices

What you get

• A fully automation role with no manual testing responsibilities

• A supportive team that values quality and collaboration

• The chance to influence automation direction and improve existing frameworks

• A stable and growing organisation with strong investment in technology

• A fully on-site environment close to Debden Station with parking available

If you are someone who enjoys hands-on automation work, solving problems, and being part of a team where your input genuinely matters, this role will suit you well.
