We've been helping sales and lettings agents to build relationships and grow their businesses for more than 25 years. Our technology connects property professionals in Europe, the Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand with buyers, sellers, tenants and landlords to power the relationships that change lives.

In Australia, Reapit stands as the preferred technology choice among the nation's leading estate agents and agencies. Tailored to the unique demands of the Australian property market, Reapit provides successful leaders with unparalleled tools across sales, property management, client relations, and data analytics, reinforcing their position at the pinnacle of real estate excellence. What you’ll be doing

Senior QA Engineers at Reapit own quality outcomes, they are not measured by how much testing they personally execute, but by how reliably the squad ships high-quality software. This means driving test strategy, mentoring engineers, and championing quality practices across the full development lifecycle, while making the most of automation and AI-assisted tooling to keep the team fast and confident. This role sits between our QA Engineer and Staff QA levels: you bring deep hands-on automation expertise and take the lead on complex, strategic initiatives within the squad, while mentoring less experienced engineers and helping shape squad-level QA processes and tooling decisions. Quality engineering is changing quickly as AI reshapes how tests are written, reviewed, and maintained. We expect Senior QA Engineers to stay ahead of this shift, evaluating new AI-assisted testing tools, critically reviewing AI-generated code and tests,



and helping the team adopt what genuinely improves coverage and velocity. Technical Skills

Solid understanding of manual and automated testing techniques, with hands-on experience using Playwright, Selenium, or similar frameworks. Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Jenkins, GitHub Actions) and integrating automated tests into build pipelines. Knowledge of version control (Git) and exposure to cloud environments such as AWS. AI-Augmented Testing

Hands-on experience with at least one AI-assisted testing tool or workflow e.g. AI-generated test cases, self-healing automated tests, AI-assisted visual/regression comparison Comfortable piloting and evaluating new AI testing features: running structured trials on real squad work, measuring impact on coverage and speed, and reporting back with a clear recommendation. Applies critical review to AI-generated code and AI-generated tests, treats AI output as a draft to verify against requirements and edge cases, not a finished artifact. Basic awareness of responsible AI use in QA: protecting test data, avoiding over-reliance on AI-suggested coverage, and flagging where human judgement is still required. Operations & Quality

Advocate for shared quality ownership across the squad, quality is everyone's responsibility, not a QA-only function. Drive CI/CD improvements to support a streamlined, efficient release process.



Mentor intermediate and junior QA engineers on technical skills, test strategy, and professional development; support developers in writing effective automated tests. Participate in technical interviews, helping assess and hire recent QA talent. Contribute to squad-and-org-level QA process improvements, tooling decisions, and knowledge sharing, including evaluating emerging AI testing tools as they reach the market. Product Delivery

Partner with product owners and engineering leads to align QA strategy with roadmap and release goals. Provide feedback on testability and quality risk during story refinement, helping the squad catch issues before they're built. Communicate quality health, risk, and release readiness clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Security & Compliance

Understand secure testing practices, including protecting test data and avoiding exposure of sensitive tenant, landlord, and property data. Run security validation steps (e.g. login flows, role-based access) and report anomalies. Adhere to data protection and compliance guidelines relevant to Property Management's data sensitivity and risk profile. Who we're looking for

At Reapit, we prioritise hiring individuals who share our values and possess the right attitudes and behaviours for success. Whilst some of the listed requirements may be important, don't worry if you don't meet all of them, we'll still like to hear from you. 5+ years of experience in software quality assurance, with a strong background in automated testing. Proven experience leading quality initiatives and driving quality improvements at a project or organisational level. [AI]
