Test Engineer in ACT

Hi there! You know you’re a great developer. But do you have any idea how powerful you are with your programming skills and that you can use them to literally make this world a better place? 

In ACT, we have developed a scalable mobile marketplace for sustainable grocery shopping, which will empower consumers to start shopping sustainably almost overnight with the ACT app, changing the direction of their combined purchasing power towards producers who respect the environment and treat their workers well.

Did that resonate with you? If so, keep reading!

What would be My role in ACT?

  • Dive into and grasp our well-structured legacy testing frameworks. We currently use Perfecto, Cucumber/Gherkin.

  • Develop and enhance testing strategies to ensure the scalability and robustness of the ACT shopping app, while finding the optimal balance prioritizing the amount of confidence each test provides relative to the time and effort invested in keeping it accurate

  • Streamline the testing pipeline through Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment.

  • Innovate new testing methods and best practices to ensure seamless user experiences.

  • Play a vital role in launching the next major versions of the ACT shopping app that are destined to make waves globally.

  • Be part of our big launch targeting the expansive European market.

  • Collaborate closely with both the backend and frontend teams, guaranteeing a harmonized, high-performing, and top-quality solution.

What skills do I need to accomplish this?

  • 3-5 years of experience in software testing, preferably with mobile apps.

  • Deep knowledge of TDD, CI, and CD.

  • Experience with Scrum-based development.

A significant advantage if you have experience in:

  • DevOps, Linux commands/batch scripting.

  • Understanding of RDF-based Graph databases and scalability challenges.

  • Insights into development and production pipeline telemetry.

  • Knowledge of feature switching and trunk-based development.

  • Familiarity with PostgreSQL, Kubernetes.

Why is working with ACT so awesome?

For countless reasons, but let’s just name three of them: 

  • Joining our team at the beginning of a fascinating journey means you’d simply have a say in what we do and how we do it and take ownership.

  • At the same time, you will get constant support, working hand in hand with our diverse and competent team. 

  • And above all, you’d play a crucial role in the emergence of (possibly) the only tool that can realistically impact the future of the food production industry and thus mitigate global warming and change the lives of millions for the better. 

Why am I your ideal test-engineer?

  • Good collaboration skills in an international team

  • Disciplined and self-driven (it’s not easy to come back from work and work again!), honest and generally good-hearted as hell (...)

  • A teamplayer building effective and fun relations with other people of diverse backgrounds, even when they’re on the other side of the Earth (or screen)

  • Enjoying remote work and flexibility of time and location

  • Fluent in English

  • We offer shares in addition to salary
