Requirements

What we're looking for

You are an experienced test professional who views quality from a broader perspective. You can switch between technology, team, and client and know how to translate your expertise into practical improvements. You take ownership, dare to advise, and enjoy helping other professionals progress.

In addition, you have:

  • A completed HBO or WO degree;
  • Minimum B2 level Dutch and a good command of English;
  • At least 5 years of relevant experience within software testing, including several years with test automation;
  • Extensive experience with test tools and frameworks, for example Selenium, Tosca, Cucumber and/or performance testing tools;
  • Experience with setting up and further developing test automation solutions;
  • Experience with CI/CD and integrating automated tests into pipelines;
  • Extensive experience within agile teams;
  • Good knowledge of one or more programming or scripting languages;
  • Experience advising clients and teams on test strategy, quality, and improvements;
  • The ability to provide substantive guidance to less experienced test professionals and transfer knowledge.

The role

Sopra Steria offers tailor-made end-to-end corporate technology and software solutions that help organizations make bold choices and achieve results. And successfully! With more than 51,000 colleagues in nearly 30 countries, we are among the top European digital solutions providers. Successful organizations in Europe rely on our technology because we continue to strive for innovation, collaboration, and business development.

The world is how we shape it.
Let’s shape it together

As a Senior Software Tester, you play an important role in making software quality demonstrable and measurable. You look beyond just executing and automating tests and actively contribute ideas regarding the test strategy, quality approach, and technical setup.

What you'll do

You translate risk analyses into effective test automation and work with commercial tools and/or automation frameworks in an IDE. In doing so, you take into account not only functional tests, but also performance, security, and other non-functional quality requirements.

You integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and advise teams and clients on the right tooling, frameworks, and approach. Based on your experience, you identify opportunities for improvement and help to actually realize them.

Additionally, you actively share your knowledge, mentor less experienced colleagues, and contribute to the further development of test automation within the team and our Auto|Q community.
