Smart Inquisitive Team Player Collaborative Detail Oriented Agile Practitioner Do you want to work for a supportive company where software testing is integrated at the start of projects rather than a project afterthought? This central Cambridge based company puts together small project teams consisting of software engineers, business analysts and software testers to build and develop enterprise software. Their products need to be robust and well thought-out as client companies utilise them 24/7. The team therefore instils a focus on collaborative problem solving and writing well-documented code that will be easily maintained. Technical-debt is something they are keen to keep minimal. This supportive, encompassing approach to software reflects their overall company culture. Teams are given autonomy, and everyone s opinions are listened to. They provide provisions for training and upskilling where required. They are policy-light and provide a flexible approach to working (which can be working around children drop offs or pick-ups, preference for early morning starts and early afternoon finishes, hybrid working or in office working). This leads to good employee retention and happy people at work. Interested? Please provide a CV demonstrating: Academic achievement we re looking for computer science, maths or similar degree holders from a highly-regarded university. An employment history in software testing (manual and automated) evidencing working within a multidisciplinary software team on enterprise software. We want to know what type of software products you are working on, and not just your day-to-day activities. Relevant projects around complex data analytic or transactional based software. Ideally exposure to C#.NET, React and / or AWS. Familiarity with agile processes. Experience with context-driven testing to ensure customers needs are met through exploratory and end-to-end testing. The company puts a high value on retaining employees and hence are keen to hire individuals who want to fully integrate within a company and can see themselves working within a supportive team over the next few years. Thought and how to approach problems is a higher priority than action, with all members of the team expected to contribute to discussions. Applicants should be British nationals, EU (Pre)Settled Status holders or have indefinite leave to remain in the UK. Company sponsorship is not available. Applicants on time-dependent visas will also not be considered. Whilst hybrid working is available, it is expected that interested candidates live in or near to Cambridge (within 1 hour away) and are willing to come to the office on the rare occasion when all team meetings are held. Another top job from ECM, the high-tech recruitment experts. Even if this job's not quite right, do contact us now - we may well have the ideal job for you. To discuss your requirements call ecm or email your CV. We will always ask before forwarding your CV. Please apply (quoting ref: CV27172 ) only if you are eligible to live and work in the UK.
