Strong API testing knowledge and experience supporting an API-first quality approach.

Experience leading quality across multiple squads or complex digital product areas.

Proven leadership of cross-team, multi-domain end-to-end initiatives.

Strong risk-based test design, governance, stakeholder communication and release-readiness capability.

Working knowledge of CI/CD, test environments, test data and agile engineering practices.

A balanced Quality Engineering mindset across functional, exploratory and automated testing.

Experience using approved AI tooling to accelerate test design, automation and defect analysis.

Retail, high-volume digital or complex enterprise platform experience.

The Quality Engineering mindset

CloudMarc is looking for Quality Engineers who are comfortable moving between functional testing, exploratory testing and automation. Effective automation is more than writing scripts: it requires selecting the right scenarios, producing maintainable and reusable solutions, and ensuring automated coverage delivers genuine value to engineering and delivery teams.

The process includes an initial Talent Team screen, a CloudMarc interview and a final client interview.
