Senior Quality Assurance Engineer (m / f / d)

The position is an expert role with a strong focus on the active, hands-on execution and ownership of quality assurance activities across multiple product and solution components. Beyond executing testing, the role is expected to proactively drive QA initiatives, continuously strengthen our overall QA methodology, and champion improvements where needed.

About the Role

The Quality Engineer will take the lead in defining expected product behavior, designing and maintaining test scenarios, identifying deviations, and driving their resolution in close collaboration with development teams. As we already have one Quality Engineer primarily focused on the frontend, this role will complement and expand our QA capabilities, ideally by taking ownership of quality topics across both frontend and backend components.

Tasks

• Proactively drive QA topics across the organization, ensuring quality considerations are embedded early in requirements definition, architecture discussions, and design decisions
• Take ownership of quality governance, defining and refining QA methodologies, standards, and best practices across frontend, backend, and data components
• Collaborate closely with development teams to define expected product behavior, clarify acceptance criteria, and ensure testability in new and existing features
• Lead cross-functional discussions to align on quality risks, mitigation strategies, and release readiness
• Build, maintain, and optimize tests, datasets, and tooling needed for reliable and scalable QA execution
• Mentor and guide other team members by promoting quality awareness, sharing testing expertise, and supporting the growth of QA capabilities
• Take initiative in identifying gaps in current QA coverage, proposing and implementing solutions that improve overall product robustness
• Support developers by evaluating and adopting new QA tools, frameworks, and technologies to increase efficiency and quality
• Drive the maintenance of quality metrics and reporting, providing clear visibility into product quality status and trends
• Ensure that backend services and data pipelines follow robust validation and monitoring practices
• Act as a key contributor to release management, validating readiness, coordinating defect triage, and influencing go / no-go decisions
