About The Role We are seeking a Junior Quality Assurance Engineer to join our growing Development team, offering the chance to work in a collaborative, small team environment, as well as the opportunity to work with colleagues across the Atlantic and around the world.

You will be responsible for testing new features, product enhancements and fixes relating to the Allego platform and all associated products. Our ambitious roadmap is leveraging some of the latest technologies in order to create exciting new features.

As part of an Agile team, from sprint kickoff through to reporting bugs (and everything in between) you will be fully engaged in the development process and be able to make a real difference to the ongoing success of the team. Requirements About you You're curious and proactive - when something looks off, you dig in rather than wait to be told.

You pick up new tools and processes quickly, with minimal hand-holding from your mentor, and know when to ask a well-targeted question versus leveraging available resources to work through it yourself first. You take ownership: unclear tickets or escaped bugs get followed up on, not left behind.

You manage your own workload, treat documentation gaps as things to fix, and see every ticket as a chance to sharpen your craft. Knowledge And Experience 1+ years Quality Assurance experience preferably in a SaaS environment. Ability to create and manage all testware (test cases, cycles, data). Familiarity with Agile frameworks (SCRUM, Kanban).

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills. Ability to work collaboratively with technical and non-technical teams. Experience of Jira / Test Management Systems / Google Workspace. Experience with manual testing web and mobile applications preferred. Knowledge of security best practices for a SaaS platform preferred.

Knowledge of CRM systems (Salesforce / MS Dynamics) is beneficial. Automation experience or understanding of tools such as Jenkins / WebdriverIO / BrowserStack is beneficial but not essential. Motivation and confidence to suggest improvements to strengthen test effectiveness.

ISTQB foundation level is desirable but not essential - we can help with that! Education Bachelor’s degree in computer science, related field, or related experience required.

Responsibilities Work with a distributed Engineering team including development of web application, server components, integrations and native iOS and Android mobile applications. Actively participate in team standups, refining, estimating and retrospective sessions.

Create well structured test cases which comprehensively cover specification and ensure high quality outcomes. Produce and maintain manual testware which supports automation efforts. Raise and report quality issues clearly and concisely. Follow through with Development and Product to ensure timely and accurate bug fixes.
