I have an exciting opportunity for a tester with experience of testing Saas or Salesforce applications to join my client with an office in Cardiff. They are an exciting startup with a financial product due to launch soon. They are made up a team of brilliant people who have been there and done this before and are now building a company even bigger and better. Due to it being an exciting time in their journey for them as they get ready to launch, they would like people happy to come into the office 2/3 days a week ideally although they are open to discussions around this for the right person. They are already a team of 50 so far with two dev teams of around 5/6 developers each and have been building their product over the past year ready to launch in the next few months. They are in the processes of building a brand new QA team to ensure the quality of the products they are building They recently hired their very first QA to start getting processes in place around testing, have just hired a second and are now looking for a third to join them with the plan to have a QA embedded as part of both their agile teams. The current focus is on launching the project in the next few months which utilizes Salesforce as a SaaS (Software as a Service) system to manage all the processes involved with their customers. QA and Testing is still at very early stages and since there isn't a lot in place yet there is the opportunity to contribute to discussions and help shape the strategy and tools used. At the moment they are using Postman for API testing (but this may change) and are considering record and playback tools for UI testing, so solid knowledge around API testing or UI automation would be useful (although automation isn't essential). You'll work closely with their Product Owners right from the requirements stage, challenging assumptions, asking questions, and writing test cases. The technology stack is focused on Salesforce, with MuleSoft for API management and due to the system being Salesforce based it relies more on configuration than on heavy coding, presenting a challenge for Testers as configurations can change faster than tests can be updated. As a result developing robust regression packs is crucial. In an ideal world they are looking for a mid/senior level QA/ Tester who would have worked with Saas or Salesforce systems before as they can be a little bit different to test compared to usual software products so it would certainly make life easier, but, they wouldn't also rule out local people who are keen to learn this. Any UI automation experience would be beneficial but isn't absolutely essential. Salary is anywhere between 45,000 and 60,000 dependent on experience plus 25 days holiday and bank holiday, matched pension of up to 8%, Life Assurance 4 x salary and Private Medical If you'd like to hear more please apply below to Sam Miller at SR2 - Socially Responsible Recruitment
