Role Overview Essential Key Skills and Responsibilities

We are seeking a highly skilled and technically proficient Senior Functional Tester to join our team. This role involves a dynamic mix of manual and automated testing, with potential exposure to load and penetration testing. Youll be working closely with our development and DevOps teams to ensure the quality and reliability of our microservices based architecture, primarily hosted on AWS. The ideal candidate will be a fast learner, an excellent communicator, and someone who thrives in a collaborative yet independent environment. Youll be responsible for testing APIs, diagnosing issues using AWS logs, and contributing to the migration of legacy automated tests into a modern Java-based framework. Strong Java coding skills are essential, along with hands-on experience in AWS services such as EventBridge, Lambda, EC2, and CodePipeline. Were looking for someone who can bring best practices to the table, challenge assumptions constructively, and help shape our testing strategy as we evolve our tech stack. Experience with AV streaming, Maven, Cucumber/Serenity, and non-functional testing is highly desirable. A background in microservices and a curious, inquisitive mindset will set you apart. This is not a handle-turner role; we want someone who brings insight, initiative, and technical depth. Youll be supported with domain knowledge but expected to take ownership of tasks and deliver high-quality outcomes with minimal supervision. You will have experience in: Java Coding (broad competence, not Selenium) AWS (EventBridge, Lambda, EC2, CodePipeline) Test Automation of APIs Cucumber/Serenity/Postman Excellent communicator/explainer Curious/Inquisitive
