• Our QA automation engineers welcome any chance to innovate and use their initiative, but they do so while implementing according to best practices in order to produce tested, secure, reliable, and scalable software and solutions • You don't just checkboxes, you are required to think outside the box and test accordingly. When you test you try and break things, you think about security and scalability. You consider the bigger picture not just going through the same repetitive flow (automation can do that) • Monitor the sprint queues and be aware of what is happening in the current sprint and what is planned for future sprints. Proactively contribute to the preparation and planning, story writing, estimation, identifying of risks or simply just giving advice at the right time • Proactively engage and work as part of a highly effective and collaborative team in order to understand requirements and develop well-considered, and well-structured test plans, test cases or automated scripts. • Develop a holistic understanding of our proprietary system, business processes and the technology involved; proactively identify any shortcomings in understanding by facilitating the sharing of knowledge, ideas and insights amongst the team and contributing to our knowledge base • Be a pioneer, help drive our innovation and chart our course with iterative improvement. Proactively assess the current testing frameworks, strategies, and plans. Identifying areas of improvement and growth for the team and how they could impact the broader tech team • Adhere to Consumer Duty outcomes
