Job description

Are you a software engineer who is passionate about quality & enthusiastic about building a world-class software solution? Does it excite you to be part of a growing team on a constantly evolving cloud platform? If yes, look no further!! We have the best opportunity for you to demonstrate your testing skills and be part of a high-performing team delivering Workforce Management capabilities.


What this role is:

As a Lead Software Engineer in Test, you will design test strategies for new features developed for our ever-growing Genesys Cloud Platform. You will spearhead the testing effort as a cross-functional team member, including Product Management, Development, UX, and Documentation. Responsibilities include understanding the architecture and design decisions, defining and implementing new tests, evaluating the end-user experience, and asserting the overall quality of the feature.


What this role isn’t:

It is not just executing tests or maintenance of test jobs and pipelines. This isn’t a pure automation role but focused on a holistic approach to quality: manual, automated, accessibility, security, performance, scalability. This isn’t a narrowly focused role on one service and one team, but an opportunity to collaborate with multiple teams distributed across the globe.


What you’ll bring to the table:


We are looking for someone skilled technically and a good communicator. You’ll coordinate with talented peers to identify risks and design solutions to mitigate them. After learning our product and process, you will contribute code to a shared automated testing project that includes tests executed daily and in multiple deployment pipelines. You will recommend and prototype new tools and techniques to help us optimize and evolve our processes. You will apply your skills to guide junior team members and provide input and feedback to peers.


Some details about what you’ll do:

  • Participate in charter meetings and collaborate with Product Managers and Developers to understand new feature intent, scope and roadmap.

  • Review design and architecture and evaluate risks and the scope of testing required.

  • Develop a test plan and strategy with the delivery team to ensure appropriate test coverage

  • Estimate the testing effort and time required to deliver new features

  • Design and implement new automated tests for APIs, UIs, or Mobile Apps

  • Coordinate exploratory testing and participate in Bug hunts to gather feedback on user experience

  • Maintain automated test jobs in our TestNG based framework by triaging failed automation test executions in our Jenkins pipelines and report defects and make fixes/updates to test code.

  • Participate in Design and Code Reviews to provide feedback to other engineers and improve our testing framework


Requirements:

  • 8+ years of experience in professional software testing

  • Experience with:

    • Object-oriented programming with Java or similar

    • Jenkins or equivalent CI/CD tools

    • Designing test plans for cloud software

    • UI Testing tools such as Selenium, Cypress or Protractor

    • Test frameworks such as TestNG or JUnit

    • REST API testing (functional and automation)

    • Build tools such as Maven or Gradle

    • Version control such as git

Pluses:

  • Knowledge of Amazon Web Services (AWS) such as EC2, S3 and Lambda

  • Experience with Sumo Logic, New Relic or other monitoring tools

  • Experience testing microservices and end-to-end usage of them within a multi-tenant cloud application

  • Experience with accessibility and compliance testing (HIPAA, GDPR, PCI)


What we bring to you:

  • Flexible work schedules and work-from-home options

  • Development and career growth opportunities

  • Excellent pension scheme

  • Bonus scheme

  • Health Insurance

  • Family-friendly leave allowances, including paid maternity and paternity leave

  • Income Protection & Life Assurance
