Meet the Quality Engineering team

You'll join the Quality Engineering function within our Accounting group, focused on ensuring the quality and reliability of CORTO's next generation of accounting products for legal professionals. This team supports CORTO's brand-new accounting solutions and accounting functionality.

The environment is fast-moving and product-heavy, with multiple new products and features being built from the ground up. You'll work across greenfield initiatives and evolving platforms, contributing to automation, improving quality practices and helping the team scale quality as the product portfolio grows.

What you’ll do

As a Quality Engineer, you'll play a hands-on role in ensuring the quality of CORTO's accounting and AI-driven products. You'll work closely with Senior Quality Engineers, developers, Product Managers and DevOps engineers to test new products and features, contribute to automation, identify quality risks and ensure releases are reliable. You'll be encouraged to take ownership of your work while continuing to develop your technical skills across automation, APIs, web applications, CI/CD and AI-enabled products.

To make this happen you will

• Design, develop, execute and maintain automated tests across web and API applications.

• Contribute to existing test automation frameworks using languages such as TypeScript, JavaScript and Python.

• Perform functional, regression, smoke and exploratory testing across new and existing products and features.

• Create clear and maintainable automated tests that follow established QE standards and patterns.

• Test backend services and APIs, including validating requests, responses, integrations and data.

• Work closely with developers to investigate defects, understand technical changes and identify potential quality risks.

• Participate in requirements refinement and technical discussions to help identify test scenarios and quality risks early.

• Contribute automated tests to CI/CD pipelines and help investigate failures within automated test runs.

• Participate in code reviews and use feedback from Senior QEs and developers to continuously improve test code.

• Clearly document defects, test coverage, risks and testing outcomes.

• Contribute to improving QE processes, automation coverage and testing practices across the team.

• Support the testing of AI-enabled features using established tools and approaches.
• Share knowledge with other engineers and actively participate in team learning and collaboration.

• Good written and verbal communication skills.

• Ability to work independently on defined pieces of work while knowing when to seek guidance.

Even better if you have

• Experience testing AI-enabled or AI-driven applications.
