Software Tester and Test Automation Engineer
We are looking for an experienced software test and test automation engineer. The testing role will be a hybrid of manual testing, both of new features and regression testing along with test automation using Ranorex test suite. https://www.ranorex.com/windows-desktop-test-automation
A key deliverable for the applicant is to make demonstrable progress on Redbrick’s test automation project which is currently in development but not yet live. As such this represents a relative greenfield opportunity for the applicant to ‘own’ the test automation process.
The successful candidate will work closely with both the product team and the development team, participating in all aspects of the development and test lifecycle. The ideal candidate would have prior test experience both manually and with test automation. Ranorex experience specifically is preferable but not essential, so long as they have transferable skills from equivalent test automation products.
A solid understanding SQL and some limited C# (which is used by Ranorex for scripting) would be ideal.
Key attributes to the success of the role are:
- Excellent communication and documentation skills.
- Internal and external empathy, being able to understand and consider how clients use our product along with internal empathy relating to development and deployment constraints.
- An eye for detail and curiosity in respect of what if scenarios.
From a personal perspective the role will suit someone able to act as the bridge between end users, support and development, working collaboratively to get the best possible outcome for all parties.
About Redbrick Solutions
Redbrick have several hundred law firms and licenced conveyancers of varying sizes utilising their award-winning legal case management systems for client and matter management. Email, document management and production, workflow processing and reporting – along with many other features.
With significant integration into the Microsoft Office suite and other bespoke integrations the software offers a wealth of end user and consumer functionality.
The product is also highly customisable and configurable at a firm level allowing clients to use it out of the box or to customise it as a framework specifically to meet their requirements and to get the best end user experience for their users and specific use cases.
The CMS application itself is a Microsoft .Net application, a hybrid mixture of both WinForms (installed) and MVC (web) code build upon an MS SQL Server backend.
From a development process perspective Redbrick work in a Scrum like manner, adopting ‘almost all’ of the Agile / Scrum principles save mainly one. Our release cadence is typically 2-3 monthly, which is at odds with Scrum principles. However, internally releasable builds are typically available far more frequently than this.
Redbrick offer a number of benefits including an almost fully remote working environment with a high degree of flexibility. Competitive salaries, a contributory pension scheme and there is an onsite Gym and shower.
Geographically we would consider applicants from all locations but would suggest some limited time in the office on occasions at times to be mutually agreed would be reasonable.
