Hours: 37.5 hours per week 
Salary: £Competitive 

Closing Date: 9am, Monday 6 August 2018 

About the role: 

The QA Tester role forms part of their busy and motivated Digital Development team and is responsible for all QA testing and processes across Technology, with a primary focus on the code developed and deployed within their Drupal environment. This work will include, and you should be comfortable with, the entire scope of the CI / CD pipeline, including specifying stories and acceptance criteria, manual and automated testing, and driving QA within the team and UAT at the wider stakeholder level. 

The successful candidate will have prior experience defining tests and acceptance criteria within agile test driven or BDD environments. Additionally, this experience will have left them with clear views on best practice, toolsets, and process as it relates to QA, UAT, and CI / CD. While they are looking for a demonstrated technical skillset, the role also requires excellent communication skills. This QA role will have a direct interface with the business side of a project and must be able to communicate clearly and succinctly with non-technical stakeholders in both written and verbal interactions. This is an excellent opportunity for a mid-level QA who has worked in a testing team setting previously and is looking to expand into a leadership role in the field. 

About the team: 

The Digital Development Team is comprised of Drupal, UX, QA, and scrum master roles and sits within their larger Technology area. They work in an agile environment to deliver concurrent projects along several streams of internal clients. They take a full stack view to site and application development and manage most of their work with the Atlassian suite of products, but are constantly looking out for new ways to work more efficiently as a team. The team takes ownership of not only sites and code, but also the environments, hosting, CI / CD, and testing. 

About you: 

- You will succeed in this role if you have a strong background in Drupal and have worked on several projects that depended on full stack development. 
- You will have seen various development environments and have strong opinions on methodologies and application design. 
- In addition, you will have a proven track record of working in team environments where communication is critical and others are depending on your work. 
- They would want to see your portfolio of past work in your open source commits and in currently deployed sites.
