The Role

Nitro is seeking a Test Automation Engineer to create, maintain and optimise our FE automated testing. The focus will be on Nitro Sign Premium and all the products that come with it.

You will be instrumental in enhancing and evolving our processes, efficiency and overall quality of our product and way of working.

You will work closely with our QA and development teams to get a good understanding of the product and to develop a detailed test automation set. This also provides a great opportunity for future growth and career progression in the company. 

What you’ll do:

• Create a FE automation framework from scratch
• Design automated best practice Front End (FE), end-to-end, Contract and other high value tests and maintain them programmatically

  • Write code to minimise the burden of maintenance
• Set up and manage in partnership with System Engineering automated test infrastructure that is reproducible and immutable and makes efficient use of resources
• Code and maintain best practice end-to-end tests
• Help to define the CI/CD direction and strategy and continuously improve those processes and systems and ensure that build and deployment is considered as much part of quality as testing and coding
• Work closely with Front End and Back End (BE) engineers to ensure testing is a natural, smooth flow
• Ensure test reports are detailed and useful and are widely used by developers and others
• Liaise with Product Management and others to ensure testing is considered in every feature and non-functional requirement

What we’re looking for:

• Recent experience as a Quality Assurance (QA) automation engineer, Front End (FE) developer or similar
• Someone looking to move into full development with a focus on testing and quality
• Someone who cares about delivering working systems for customers, who thinks as they think

• A focus on delivering incremental value as little and often as possible
• Experience with test automation tools (such as Taiko, Gauge or Cypress)
• Experience with Javascript, html, css
• Scripting using Groovy, PowerShell, SQL, Java or similar
• Knowledge of software development and test support tools: JIRA, Confluence, Kanban
• Comfortable with Git, GitHub and the IntelliJ IDE
• Good communication skills and a positive mindset with an interest in learning more
• Fluency with Technical English

 Nice to have:

• Experience with, React, Knockout, webpack, gulp
• Containers and virtualization technologies: Docker, Kubernetes, etc,…

How We Work: 
 
Our mission is to help create, develop, and support an environment where great people come to do their best work. We believe there is a balance to strike between “work hard, play hard,” and we strive to improve in both areas every day. 
 
We put our customers, employees, and communities at the center of everything we do. It all comes back to our core values:    

• Be Good - Nitronauts are good humans with big hearts that are respectful and supportive of each other. We celebrate individuality and diversity and strive to foster an environment where people can be themselves and do their best work.     
• Performance First - We like to challenge ourselves. We’re passionate about exceeding expectations and stepping outside our comfort zones to get to the next level. It’s our ambition that pushes us to work hard and deliver strong results.   
• No B.S. - This one is self-explanatory, but we’re all about transparency, honesty, and authenticity here. We don’t beat around the bush; we tell it like it is. 

Why Nitro?   
 
Our goal is to empower our Nitronauts—to make an impact, work better together, and believe any goal is attainable. We take pride in the perks and benefits provided to employees that make their day-to-day lives more enjoyable and secure. Along with our regular benefits and programs (including health, dental, vision, retirement as standard), we are also very proud to offer a few additional initiatives to future Nitronauts: 
 
Flex Time Off 
Work-life balance is important at Nitro, and we understand that there are events that we cannot plan for. We are proud to offer Flex Time Off to be used for holidays, spending days with your family, or appointments. 
 
Flexible Forever  
We will offer a flexible work environment forever. This hybrid approach allows our team the flexibility to work remotely and have access to in-person time for collaboration sessions and team offsites. 
 
90 Days Away 
We offer the opportunity for employees to travel and explore while working from anywhere. Employees can extend vacations and spend more time with family, and work from anywhere for up to 90 days. 
 
Nitro Resource Groups 
Nitro supports our diverse group of Nitronauts who come together to celebrate their passions, share their unique perspectives, experiences, and contributions to make Nitro a more inclusive place to work.  
 
Families @ Nitro
