What’s the role?

We’re building something big — a global platform shaped by the insights of experienced airport service providers and the energy of a scaling tech organisation. And we’re looking for someone who can help lead that journey.

As a Senior Quality Engineer, you’ll play a key role in one of our agile delivery teams — taking ownership of quality from strategy to execution, embedding testing throughout the stack, and coaching colleagues along the way. You’ll bring a strong quality mindset, hands-on experience, and a collaborative approach to help deliver high-performing, reliable software.

This isn’t just a testing role — it’s about being a quality champion, a coach, and a team collaborator who supports continuous improvement and shared ownership of outcomes.

What will you be doing?
You’ll be:

Leading and mentoring other testers, offering thoughtful feedback and supporting professional development
Shaping quality strategies across epics, features, and stories — blending exploratory testing and automation as needed
Collaborating with developers, product owners, and delivery managers to create shared understanding and drive quality from the start
Coaching others in best practices, helping shift testing earlier in the process, and supporting a team-owned approach to quality
Designing and executing both manual and automated tests using tools like Cypress, Postman, and Ghost Inspector
Contributing to CI/CD pipelines, using data and feedback loops to improve how we build and release
Playing an active role in the Quality Engineering (QE) community and supporting department-wide initiatives to raise standards

About you
We’re looking for someone who:

Has hands-on experience testing modern software within agile environments
Understands full-stack testing — from user interfaces and APIs to pipelines and cloud infrastructure
Is comfortable with automation tools like Cypress, Ghost Inspector or Selenium
Enjoys mentoring others and supporting growth through coaching and feedback
Thrives in team environments, using pairing, retrospectives, and collaboration to deliver value
Is proactive, curious, and passionate about learning

Bonus if you have:

Experience with CI/CD pipelines
Familiarity with AWS services
JavaScript or TypeScript knowledge
An interest in shaping testing strategies and contributing to the wider quality community
