About the role

  • Software Tester focused on automated testing to ensure quality for TeamFeePay’s product. Collaborating with engineering and product teams in a hybrid role based in Belfast.

Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain automated test coverage
  • Create, maintain and improve automated end-to-end tests using tools such as Playwright
  • Focus on regression coverage for critical user journeys across web and mobile
  • Ensure automated tests are reliable, maintainable and provide meaningful signal — not noise
  • Work with engineers to integrate automated tests into everyday development and CI workflows
  • Take a pragmatic, product-focused approach to quality
  • Apply manual and exploratory testing selectively, where automation doesn’t yet make sense
  • Help the team make informed decisions about risk, quality and business value
  • Be comfortable balancing pragmatism with rigour — knowing when something can ship, and when it really shouldn’t
  • Push back when quality issues pose real risk to users, the product or the business
  • Shape how quality works at TeamFeePay
  • Contribute to defining and evolving our test strategy and approach as the product grows
  • Help reduce reliance on ad-hoc manual testing by increasing confidence in automated coverage
  • Work closely with engineers to improve testability and quality earlier in the development process
  • Encourage shared ownership of quality rather than operating as a gatekeeper
  • Collaborate, don't operate in isolation
  • Work day-to-day within the Engineering team, collaborating closely with developers
  • Spend some time working alongside Product to understand intent, edge cases and real-world usage
  • Communicate clearly about quality, risk and trade-offs without adding unnecessary process or friction

Requirements

  • Experience working in a hybrid QA or software testing role , with a strong automation focus
  • Comfortable creating and maintaining automated UI tests (e.g. Playwright or similar)
  • Experience defining or contributing to test strategy and regression coverage
  • Able to operate independently, but values close collaboration with engineers and product
  • Pragmatic and outcome-focused — not a checkbox tester or process enforcer
  • Confident pushing back when needed, while still supporting engineering velocity
  • Equivalent experience welcomed (we’re flexible on years but expect mid-level to senior capability)

Benefits

  • A product that genuinely supports volunteers and communities
  • Real influence over how quality and testing operate in a growing engineering team
  • The opportunity to help move the team towards greater confidence and fewer regressions
  • A collaborative, product-led culture based in our Belfast HQ, with flexibility built in
