About the role:
n
Drive quality through automation-first test strategy and coverage, catching defects pre-release and regressions post-ship. Shape sprint planning, scope, and effort estimation as the pod's sole QA, partnering with the broader QA group for design review and escalation.
n
What you'll be doing:
n
n
Own test strategy and automated test coverage for all features delivered by the AI Automation team
n
Analyse requirements and specifications to define test scope, surfacing gaps, ambiguities, and edge cases before development begins
n
Contribute to test input into sprint planning, refinement, and stand-ups, including effort estimates and test workplace requirements
n
Design test plans spanning functional, edge, and negative cases, prioritising depth on higher-risk areas
n
Build and maintain Playwright end-to-end tests (TypeScript or Python) for the team's features, starting with critical user journey
n
Triage, reproduce, and track client-reported bugs and escalated support tickets through to resolution
n
Share escalation load by participating in the QA escalation rotation across the SF360 and SI360 product group
n
Partner with the Product Manager,



Business Analyst, developers, and wider QA group to resolve issues and continuously improve testing practices
n
n
What we're looking for:
n
n
4+ years in software testing, including at least two years writing and maintaining automated test suites
n
Proficient in TypeScript or Python, with working knowledge of AWS and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or equivalent)
n
Demonstrated experience with Playwright or a comparable end-to-end framework
n
SQL beyond the basics, including multi-table joins and aggregation, to validate data independently
n
Hands on experience testing complex browser-based applications, ideally where data accuracy matters as much as how the interface behaves
n
Confident and curious with AI-assisted tooling, and able to recognise when its output is wrong. Exposure to Claude Code, Jira, or Confluence is an advantage
n
Communicates clearly verbally and in writing with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, producing defect reports precise enough for a developer to action without needing follow-up clarification
n
Able to work autonomously and own the QA role
n
Agile delivery experience preferred. Accounting, SMSF, or financial software experience or an ability to quickly learn industry-specific challenges
n
Collaborates with influence and partners closely with PM, BA, and Developers, and isn't afraid to challenge decisions to drive quality improvements
n
Owns beyond the brief and brings an entrepreneurial mindset to QA, actively shaping and improving practices across the wider product group
n
n
Please note we are only able to consider applicants with full working rights for Australia.
