QA Engineer (Automation and Manual) based in the UK

We're looking for a QA Engineer to join our existing QA team, working across both manual and automated testing. You'll partner closely with our current QA staff to either extend our existing automation suite or help build a fresh one from the ground up. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys the full breadth of testing, not just writing scripts, but digging into the product, understanding how things really work, and catching issues before our users do. Because we integrate heavily with workplace hardware, you'll also get hands-on with testing new devices as they come into the platform.

What you'll do

• Design, build and maintain automated tests, ideally in Cypress (though we're open to other frameworks if that's where your experience lies)
• Carry out thorough manual testing, including API and integration testing
• Test integrations with new workplace hardware, helping us validate devices as they're brought into the platform
• Work alongside our existing QA team to tackle both manual and automation efforts together
• Help shape our automation strategy, whether that means growing what we already have or starting something new
• Contribute to test planning, coverage and quality standards across the team

• Strong background in manual testing, including API integration testing
• Solid experience with test automation (Cypress preferred, but other tools are welcome)
• Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines
• Strong AI literacy - a good grasp of how to use AI tools effectively and where they add real value to testing and day-to-day work
• A collaborative approach; you'll be working shoulder to shoulder with other QA staff
• A friendly, open work ethic and a genuine willingness to learn and share knowledge

Nice to have

• Familiarity with Jira (desirable, not essential)
• Experience introducing or scaling an automation suite from scratch
• Experience testing hardware integrations or working with physical devices, * Bachelor's (preferred)

Experience:

• QA: 3 years (required)

You're curious, practical and happy to muck in across whatever the team needs, whether that's a tricky manual test session, validating a new piece of hardware, or building out the automation framework. You care about quality, you communicate openly, and you're keen to keep growing your skills.

What we offer

• 25 days annual leave (plus bank holidays)
• Company pension scheme
• Hybrid working - 2-3 days a week in our Halifax office
• The chance to shape our QA approach and work across software and cutting-edge workplace hardware

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: £40,000.00-£50,000.00 per year

Benefits:

• Company events
• Company pension
• Sick pay
• Work from home
