Senior QA Engineer (IoT / Platform & Devices)
St Albans (Hybrid)
£65,000 + Bonus + Shares
Method Resourcing are working with a fast-growing, international IoT technology business that build mission-critical platforms and connected device solutions used across sectors where reliability, security and uptime truly matter.
They are looking for a Senior QA Engineer to take ownership of end-to-end quality across complex systems spanning cloud platforms, software services and physical hardware devices.
This is not a traditional "testing" role. It's a senior, hands-on QA engineering position where quality is embedded into engineering, DevOps and SRE, from design through to production.
What you'll be doing
- Owning end-to-end test strategy for one or more products
- Designing and delivering manual and automated test coverage across:
- Platform services
- Business systems
- User-facing tools
- Physical IoT devices / hardware
- Embedding testing into CI/CD pipelines, working closely with Software Engineers and DevOps
- Reviewing and influencing unit testing approaches and coverage
- Leading release readiness: validation, risk assessment and quality sign-off
- Troubleshooting issues, identifying root causes, and validating fixes
- Producing clear test outcome reports that demonstrate quality and gaps
- Supporting and guiding other QA Engineers, sharing best practice
What they're looking for
- Strong, hands-on experience as a Senior QA / QA Engineer
- Deep understanding of testing methodologies, both manual and automated
- Experience designing end-to-end test strategies, not just executing test cases
- Comfortable working with complex, distributed systems
- Experience testing hardware / devices is highly desirable (or a genuine interest in learning)
- Strong communicator who can collaborate across engineering, product and delivery
- A mindset focused on preventing defects and improving quality, not just finding bugs
- An interest in how QA fits within SRE / DevOps environments
Why this role stands out
- Work on real-world, critical systems where quality genuinely matters
- High level of ownership and influence over how quality is engineered
- A business that invests in technology, people and continuous improvement
- Opportunity to help shape a modern, automated QA capability within a scaling organisation
