Team Context
At Aflac Northern Ireland we are building a number of high-performing engineering teams, who will be adopting a quality-first approach to building solutions that will directly improve our customer experience. Rigorous testing will be at the heart of everything we build and our Agile teams will take responsibility for delivering high-quality products, utilising a robust Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery process, and leveraging tools to automate test, build and deployment activities.
The intention is for our teams to continually adapt and reinvent their skills and capabilities over time as technologies change and evolve. We will provide the right challenges and opportunities to enable your success, however we need you to bring your enthusiasm, the ability to learn quickly, and to take minimum-viable-product technology and produce industrialised solutions for the enterprise. Once our teams have successfully delivered robust and scalable solutions for Aflac, there will be a new technology waiting to be explored and built to scale within our organisation. We’ll be keeping things pretty fresh.
Role Context
We are looking for a QA Engineering Lead who is passionate about ensuring high quality outcomes for the customer and can put the end-user at the centre of their thinking. Experience with QA and Testing in an Agile context is essential. You will be responsible for implementing strong QA methodologies across a number of teams, and leading a test-centric philosophy where engineers take ownership for delivering quality products and artefacts. Knowledge of testing with a range of technologies is highly desirable, and you will need to have proven experience of successfully working in software teams, executing an effective testing regime, and have an ambition to increase test automation and improve quality in the product delivery process.
