QA Engineer Expert (w/m)

Our Testing & QA team is critical to ensuring the reliability and performance of our products, while minimizing the toil for our engineering teams. Its mission is to be the quality advocate of our products and services, and to continuously improve our processes and tools to deliver value to our customers. We have invested very early in Automation capabilities; we are driving very intentionally efficiency with an end-to-end mindset within our teams. We want our Testing & QA community to focus on 4 pillars :

• Promote a “shift left” mindset for quality, ensuring the testing strategy is fully embedded in the Product delivery lifecycle, bringing an upfront focus on edge cases and accepting criteria, fostering the “3 amigos” approach 

• Design and implement robust End to End testing/QA strategies, to acknowledge the transversality and interdependency within our ecosystem, maximize our product reliability while enabling a high frequency release management 

• Embrace our data driven culture by promoting full transparency on testing KPIs, including functional coverage, automation and execution metrics 

• Establish a strong QA Community of Practice to ensure best practices and ways of working also reach our internal and external partners and contribute to elevate the Quality culture within Edenred 

Our QA team work closely with the Engineering, Data and Product teams to ensure that our products meet the high standards of quality and performance that our customers expect. 

We expect from our QA team leadership to be role models, master our products, be both functionally and technically savvy and capable of influencing both Product & Engineers within their respective Tribes. 

We are fostering autonomy within each tribe and Lead QA engineers will be accountable to reconcile our SmartER QA driving principles, tools and methodologies with the specificities of the tribes, whether it comes from Technology (eg Mobile vs Web vs API vs Salesforce) or Functional complexity.
