About you

If you like to break stuff and understand why it broke; enjoy starting with only the vaguest description of a bug and doing what it takes to get it properly defined for a fix; relish cutting through the tangled web of a specification to get to the bottom of what was actually done; are passionate about delivering quality products, smart, creative and energetic, then you might be exactly the person that we are looking for!

We need someone who is motivated, not only by delivering software to specification but who can think like our users.  You will be someone who continuously and proactively aims to improve the quality processes around our software.

Previous experience of testing and/or developing software is an advantage, but not a requirement.  An understanding of engineering processes and/or the user of technical software is essential.

An honours degree (most likely in an engineering or scientific discipline) or equivalent experience is essential.  Have a desire to succeed
