Key Responsibilities:

  • Drive quality engineering strategy within Agile product teams, embedding quality across the SDLC to enable rapid, reliable software delivery.
  • Design and implement scalable automated testing frameworks for functional, regression, performance, and security testing—integrated into CI/CD pipelines for fast feedback and high confidence releases.
  • Own test infrastructure and tooling, ensuring efficient and maintainable test pipelines that support continuous integration and frequent deployments.
  • Lead and perform exploratory testing of new and high-risk features, identifying edge cases and critical defects that automation may miss.
  • Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and designers to define acceptance criteria, refine testability, and ensure a shared understanding of quality goals.
  • Participate in code reviews and technical design discussions, providing input on testability, risk, and quality impact early in the development process.
  • Mentor engineers and champion testing best practices, fostering a quality-first culture and encouraging collective ownership of reliability and user experience.
  • Evaluate and adopt new testing tools and methodologies, continuously improving test efficiency and effectiveness across teams.

Qualifications:

  • 2+ years of hands-on experience in Software Quality Engineering, with a proven track record of delivering high-quality software in Agile environments.
  • Proficient in designing, developing, and maintaining automated test suites and frameworks for E2E and API (e.g., using tools like Playwright, Cypress, or similar).
  • Exposure to performance testing tools such as k6 or similar, with the ability to analyse performance metrics and identify bottlenecks.
  • Familiarity with technologies such as Docker, and cloud services (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud) to effectively test and validate software.
  • Experience with CI/CD tools (e.g., AWS Code Pipeline, Github Actions) for automating the deployment process.
  • Experience using monitoring and logging tools (e.g., Datadog, New Relic, Grafana) to analyse system performance and identify potential issues.
  • Exposure to, or experience contributing to, lower-level tests such as Unit and Integration tests.
  • Strong understanding of software quality principles, best practices and testing methodologies.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills with a focus on identifying and preventing defects.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering or equivalent practical experience in the field (preferred but not a must).

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
