About the Company
Our client is a modern, cloud-native digital consultancy delivering composable commerce solutions and data-driven digital experiences for well-known retail and e-commerce brands. A ~50-person, highly experienced, remote-first team, scaling steadily and delivering complex, fast-moving projects across multiple client landscapes.
Role Overview
This is a functional testing role at heart, and that's by design. You'll be the person who understands how systems behave end-to-end — validating features, tracing data through integrations, and catching what automation alone would miss. There's future scope to get involved in automation as the QA function matures, but this role is being hired for strong manual/functional testing expertise first and foremost — candidates should be genuinely comfortable owning that remit rather than treating it as a stopgap.
