Software Test Engineer: You’ll play an important role in delivering high‑quality software by designing and executing effective manual and automated tests within an agile development environment. You’ll work closely with developers and other team members to analyse requirements, shape test approaches, and ensure systems meet agreed acceptance criteria. You’ll contribute to continuous integration testing, maintain and improve test scripts, and participate in sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives. This role offers variety and ownership, suiting someone who enjoys working across embedded software projects, collaborating within a supportive team, and self‑managing their work across multiple priorities. Due to the nature of the work undertaken, this role is office‑based.
Software Development Engineer in Test: You’ll be an integral member of the Software Development team, ensuring our products meet the high standards expected by our worldwide customer base. You’ll work closely with developers throughout feature development, analysing requirements, designing test cases, and automating them in C++ using Google Test to support testable, high‑quality code. You’ll build and maintain a robust automated test suite to prevent regression, review and refine tests based on results, and complement automation with exploratory testing where appropriate. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys hands‑on automation, collaborative development, and contributing directly to the quality of complex, graphics‑driven software. This role can be either fully office‑based or hybrid, with the team working from the office two days a week, typically Tuesday & Wednesday.
Some benefits are subject to successful completion of probation.
Applicants must have the right to work in the UK and be able to meet the requirement to work from the office.
