I'm hiring a Automation Tester with solid experience of front-end JavaScript-based automation with tools like Playwright and Cypress to join my client. They have an office in Edinburgh and would like people happy to come in once a month, but the rest of the time you can work remotely. They are a FinTech scaleup who develop a platform that helps with investments. They have a great working environment and genuinely care about the culture and their employee well-being as they continue to grow. They also champion flexible working that focuses on delivery and impact, rather than the amount of hours you work. They are now looking for an Automation Tester / SDET to join their UI team. At the moment they are working with JavaScript based tech like Playwright, Cypress, Jest and Mocha. They have recently redeveloped the front end of their products so you have the opportunity to shape how testing looks on this front.
