Your mission

As an Automation QA Engineer within Fourthline your mission is to create and execute a testing strategy and with that enable fast and bug-free code in production. You will work in one of the (or more) scrum teams with talented people and an awesome challenge to go fast, go secure and go as a super hero.

You make sure that Batman can ride the Bat mobile and that the Romans don’t conquer our village. As a Tech company the software we develop is mission-critical, which means that you are always at the core of our product! How cool is that! 

In general, you will:

• Develop test plans and test cases based on business requirements of functional and non-functional specifications
• Coach and teach developers how they can write their own automated tests. Communication is key and if you do this in a great way you can move faster as a team
  
• Design, develop, and maintain automated tests (for backend and sometimes frontend)
• Bug tracking and –reporting and solving them if it is an easy fix
• Perform manual and automated testing of our systems (but automate as much as possible)
• Write and deliver clear QA documentation.

Your extensive experience (+3 years in (automated) testing) has made you use the Batman utility belt and includes a wide array of tools. A few of them:

• The Batarang: The most used tool, or as we call it... Selenium WebDriver
• Bat-stungun: stunning automation skills. Web and API / rest based! 
• Bat-darts: Azure DevOps + CI or something similar (Github, Bitbucket, etc...)
• Bat-Tracer: Performance testing
• Bat-claw: We think 3+ years in QA Automation (of which +2 years in C# / dot-bat...uhhmm, I mean .NET obviously... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) is a necessity. Experience in Cypress would be a great addition as you will be collaborating in our Web team!

And your secret potion? Communication! Ask for help when needed and be proactive! Since we work in international teams and cross-country (with our HQ in Amsterdam) you need to speak English on a very good level.

What do we offer, next to a good salary?

We have a great office with great view overlooking Montjuic and the rest of the city that we recently redesigned to make it a great place to work from (if we are allowed again). And like you, we value:

• A “flexible” package of secondary benefits where you can choose the components that you like most (Think: meal tickets, health insurance, transportation costs, etc…)
• A personal education budget to continuously develop yourself
• English classes if you need (or want) them!
• A high degree of collaboration within the team and autonomy to work on your own projects
• Crucial role in a highly motivated and talented team
• Friday drinks (it's a Dutch thing, but it's a good way to close the week...)
• Flexible working hours
• A real team! We play pádel together, have lunches outside of the office and hang out together on Fridays and go mountain biking together in the weekend
• A stack of the most modern technologies and the opportunity to use them in production.

<<Note: For this role we currently don’t relocate people, so you need to be in Barcelona already and be in the possession of an independent EU work permit.>>
