As a QA Engineer, you will champion the quality of our development features whether that be pairing with developers promoting testability or trying to break the feature through exploratory testing. You will own the authoring and execution of test plans, test cases, and testing at every stage of the lifecycle. You will significantly impact the quality and delivery speed of our software, most importantly for our customers. You will partner closely with Engineers, Product managers, and QA whilst having the opportunity to propose improvements to our existing processes and automated tools to improve the team’s speed, quality, and efficiency.

This role will support our Science, Information, and Chief Operating Office (SIC) portfolio - you will deliver digital innovation and transformation to our Researchers and Cancer Research UK employees across a range of products. The customers you will provide value to through your services include cancer patients, scientists, clinicians & nurses, politicians, our supporters, and our employees. Ultimately, you will know you are changing and saving lives through your work.
