Software Test Engineer (27256)

Guildford (fully onsite)
£45,000 to £60,000 DoE + Benefits

Engineering mindset for testing of mathematical modelling software

Based at offices in Guildford, this software company develop real-time modelling tools used in the energy sector. Their globally distributed customers include bespoke consultancies as well as major multinational corporations. They are looking to recruit across their engineering team including Software Test Engineers.

This is not your usual company, and hence they are not looking for your usual Software Test Engineer. Those they hire into their test team will work closely with their software developers and have an engineering approach to their work. This could include: defining test cases, software release plans, test strategies and automated scripting for tests.

Requirements:

  • 2.1 Bachelors + Master’s / PhD in computer science, physics, maths or engineering (from a well-recognised university).
  • Demonstrable experience in enterprise level software product testing (ideally of a maths modelling platform).
  • Thorough understanding of software development processes including good documentation skills.
  • Technical skills should include automated scripting with a typical mainstream C-based language. Exposure to C#.NET, SQL Server and general Windows development would be desirable.
  • Good communication skills to engage with others in the engineering team.

The role is fully onsite, therefore interested candidates must be based in Guildford or live relatively close to their Guildford offices. Offices are close to train and road links. On offer is a competitive salary including a range of benefits.

No company sponsorship is available.
