Senior QA Engineer

You know the type of QA role where you just run manual test scripts, report bugs, and wait for someone else to fix them?
This is not that role.

At this company, you’ll own automation from the ground up. Our product is a fast-growing SaaS platform in education, used daily by professionals who must stay certified to do their jobs. Every test you write directly impacts lawyers, doctors, teachers, and drivers across Europe.

Company profile

Our client is a European SaaS scale-up in education. They’re merging multiple e-learning platforms into one international product. The platform is already live, used by thousands, but still under heavy development.

The team: ~11 developers, 4 product owners, 1 designer, and currently 1 manual QA. They now need a Senior QA Engineer to bring automation and a quality-first mindset into the heart of the product. Hybrid setup: 2 office days (Utrecht, Mon & Wed), rest remote.

Job description

As Senior QA Engineer, you will:

  • Own end-to-end test automation with Playwright (Typescript/Javascript).

  • Design test strategies and build CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions.

  • Support the shift-left movement: quality baked in from the start.

  • Work closely with devs and product to clarify acceptance criteria.

  • Coach the team in best practices, exploratory and release testing.

Job Requirements

  • 5–7 years in QA/Test Automation.

  • Hands-on with Playwright (or Cypress/Selenium + Typescript).

  • CI/CD integration experience (ideally GitHub Actions).

  • Strong communicator, able to advise both devs & PO’s.

  • EU-based, fluent in English, 2 days per week in Utrecht.

Terms of Employment

  • Salary: up to €6.000/month.

  • Pension plan, 26 vacation days.

  • Hybrid: 2 office days, rest remote.

  • Free daily lunch, team events, and a supportive scale-up culture.
