We're headquartered in Dublin, with engineering teams in Dublin, Lisbon and throughout Europe.\nWe build our own software because tightly integrated software lets us run the best events in the world. Our software helps attendees prepare, find relevant people and activities, and make connections.\nAbout you:\nEvery attendee's journey, from buying a ticket to walking through the door, crosses a Rails monolith, native mobile apps, a React Native registration and access app, a CRM and a ticketing pipeline, built by several small teams. What breaks usually breaks between them. The whole thing gets its real test a few days a year, when tens of thousands of people arrive at the doors at once.\nAs our first Senior Quality Engineer, you'll work across those teams as a hands-on engineer, building the tests, data and tools they use to show a release works end to end. The teams stay responsible for what they ship. You make it easy for them to know it works.\nWhat you'll achieve\nGive every team the confidence to ship more often, because they'll know when something breaks.\n\nBuild a repeatable end-to-end test, with realistic data, for the journeys that matter most: registration, login, ticket assignment and entry.\n\nBuild test identities and event-like data that every team can use.\n\nRun the whole flow across the mobile apps and the services behind them, every week.\n\nGive the team shipping a release clear evidence of what it depends on.\n\nWork on site at events, watch what happens at the doors, and turn what you learn into a test, a monitor or a written decision.\n\nWho you are\nYou judge a test by the impact a failure would have on our users, not by a coverage number.\n\nYou're curious about the gaps between systems and about users who don't do what we expect.\n\nYou'd rather teach five teams to test than build tests for five teams.\n\nYou share what you know.\n\nYou'd rather be pretty sure this week than absolutely sure next quarter.\n\nYou can tell someone their release is at risk and still be welcome at their standup.\n\nWhat we're looking for\nStrong programming skills and a record of building test software other engineers keep using.\n\nExperience testing journeys across APIs, services, web or mobile clients and third-party systems, and judgement about which layer to test what at.\n\nExperience creating reusable test data and environments, and running automated tests in CI/CD.\n\nExperience investigating failures with logs, monitoring and crash reports, and explaining the risk plainly to engineers and non-engineers.\n\nComfortable using AI tools to write and maintain tests.\n\nWorking ability in at least one of Ruby, JavaScript, Swift or Kotlin, and able to read the others. Mobile automation such as Maestro would help.\n\nStack: a Rails monolith, PostgreSQL, Sidekiq. Native Swift and Kotlin apps with Maestro, the React Native app, Salesforce, CircleCI and feature flags. Claude Code and Cursor in daily use.","description_format":"text","description_chars":3044,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Ireland","iso":"IE","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Higher Education"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-26T02:43:06Z"}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":61,"reasons":["conf:8","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-01T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/web-summit-senior-quality-engineer-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/web-summit-senior-quality-engineer-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-02T01:42:00Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2154,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":2846,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-03T00:00:00Z"}}}
