QA Developer

QA Developer
Remote (UK) | Up to £50,000

Know QA could be done better, but don’t have the chance to fix it?
You’re testing features. Running regressions. Catching issues late.
And you can see the gaps.
Tests that should be automated. Processes that don’t scale. Bugs that shouldn’t make it through.
The problem is, you don’t own it.
This role gives you that ownership.

Start hands-on. Then build it properly.
You won’t be expected to walk in and automate everything on day one.
You’ll start by getting close to the product:
Running acceptance tests on new features
Working through real ecommerce journeys
Understanding where things break and why
Once you’ve got that context, you’ll start improving things:
Automating the most repetitive and high-risk tests
Building out regression suites
Embedding testing into the release process
It’s a natural progression from manual into automation, with the time and space to do it properly.

Move from testing to real engineering
This role goes beyond checking if something works.
You’ll be working on:
API testing and backend validation
Automation using tools like Playwright
Integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines
Improving how the team thinks about quality
You’ll start to think like an engineer, not just a tester.

The kind of problems you’ll work on
This is a live ecommerce environment, so quality really matters.
You might be:
Testing a checkout flow that technically works, but feels wrong to the user
Catching edge cases that only appear under real customer behaviour
Validating how a backend change affects multiple parts of the platform
Identifying gaps in testing that could lead to revenue-impacting issues
As you work through these, you’ll build:
Stronger debugging skills
A better understanding of systems, not just features
The ability to design tests that reflect real-world usage

What you’ll be doing
Running acceptance and regression testing
Working closely with developers during sprints
Identifying issues, edge cases and failure points
Building and improving automated tests over time
Creating test plans and documentation
Improving QA processes and release confidence

What you’ll bring
You’re likely a QA who wants more ownership and a clearer path into automation.
You might be:
A QA Engineer with manual testing experience and some exposure to automation
Currently in a role where QA is reactive rather than proactive
Working in ecommerce, SaaS or an agency environment
You’ll be comfortable with:
Manual and regression testing
Testing web applications end to end
Basic JavaScript or TypeScript
Debugging and explaining issues clearly
Working closely with developers
Bonus if you have:
Experience with tools like Playwright or Postman
Exposure to CI/CD pipelines
Ecommerce experience

What you’ll get
The chance to shape QA from the ground up
A realistic path into automation, not an overnight expectation
Ownership over how testing is done
A modern engineering environment
Remote-first working
A growing team where QA will expand over time
You’ll also be joining a team where people have progressed quickly as the function has grown, with clear opportunities to take on more responsibility as things scale.

If this sounds like you
If you’re the kind of QA who sees how things should work and wants the chance to improve it, this is your opportunity.
