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 5+ years in QA Automation with C# or Java is a necessity

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.>>
