As a result, they are now looking for their first dedicated Software Test Engineer to join the team.

Initially they see the role as very manual focused but they are open to automation further down the line.The company has also recently brought in a Business Analyst to help with requirements gathering and user insight, and you’ll work closely with them to understand the product's current gaps and future needs. You’ll also be encouraged to engage directly with end users, to investigate issues, document bugs, and hunt down problems that haven’t even been flagged yet.I’m looking for someone with previous experience in software testing who is looking for a part time role and is comfortable working independently, especially in a remote setup, and capable of taking initiative in a relatively unstructured environment. Familiarity with testing and bug tracking tools such as Jira etc is desirable, along with strong attention to detail and good communication skills.If you’d like to hear more please apply to Sam Miller at SR2 – Socially Responsible Recruitment
