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 accounting products for legal professionals. This team supports established accounting functionality used by the wider user base, alongside ongoing product improvements and new feature delivery.

The environment is fast-moving and product-heavy, with established products continuing to evolve as new features and improvements are delivered. You’ll work across evolving platforms, helping improve test coverage, quality practices and release confidence as the product portfolio grows.

What you’ll do

As a Quality Engineer, you will take a hands-on role in testing CORTO’s accounting products. This role has a strong focus on manual testing, particularly across new features, existing workflows, integrations, and release validation.

You will contribute throughout the software development lifecycle, helping ensure that quality is considered early and releases are reliable. You will also have regular opportunities to contribute to UI and API automation, with pairing, training, and upskilling support from the wider Quality Engineering team.

To make this happen, you will:

• Perform hands-on manual testing across CORTO’s accounting products, including functional, regression, smoke, integration, and exploratory testing
• Create and maintain clear test scenarios, test data, and evidence for new features, existing workflows, and defect fixes
• Validate end-to-end user journeys across supported platforms, integrations, and data flows
• Work closely with developers and product managers to understand requirements, acceptance criteria, risks, and technical changes
• Identify edge cases, quality risks, and gaps in requirements, and raise clear, actionable defects
• Take ownership of assigned features throughout development, release, and post-release validation
• Contribute to UI and API test automation within the team’s established frameworks
• Develop your automation capability through pairing, training, and hands-on support from experienced team members
• Help identify repeatable manual scenarios that are suitable for automation
• Assist with investigating automated test and CI/CD failures as your experience grows
• Use AI-assisted tools to support testing, investigation, automation, and documentation where appropriate

What you’ll bring

• Commercial experience working in software testing or quality engineering
• Strong hands-on experience with manual testing of web applications, APIs, and/or data-driven products
• Experience creating and executing clear functional, regression, integration, smoke, and exploratory test scenarios
• The ability to analyse requirements and product behaviour to determine appropriate, risk-based testing coverage
• Experience testing APIs, backend systems, integrations, and data-heavy applications
• Strong defect investigation and reporting skills, including clear evidence and reproduction steps
• Some exposure to UI and/or API test automation, or a strong interest in developing those skills
• Familiarity with version control, CI/CD, or a programming or scripting language is beneficial
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• A proactive approach to quality, investigation, and continuous improvement
• The ability to work effectively in a fast-changing and sometimes loosely structured environment
• A willingness to learn, receive feedback, and build technical capability with support from the team

Even better if you have

• Experience contributing to UI or API automation within an established test framework
• Experience with tools or languages such as Playwright, Cypress, Postman, TypeScript, JavaScript, or Python
• Experience testing AI-enabled systems, non-functional requirements, or cloud platforms such as AWS

You are the type of person who

• Takes ownership of their work and follows tasks through to completion
• Cares about product quality and the experience of the end user
• Communicates clearly and works collaboratively with technical and non-technical team members
• Enjoys investigating problems and understanding how systems behave
• Is comfortable asking questions and challenging assumptions constructively
• Can balance thorough testing with practical delivery priorities
• Adapts well when requirements, priorities, or products change
• Is a self-motivated learner who values feedback and continuous improvement
• Enjoys sharing knowledge and contributing to a supportive team environment
