**The Role \& Your Impact**
As a Senior Test Engineer at Blyce, you are first and foremost responsible for ensuring the quality and reliability of our software solutions through structured, hands-on testing. In addition, you coordinate testing activities within your project team, coach junior testers, create structure in the testing process, monitor progress and quality, and advise stakeholders on risks, priorities and improvements.
**What Will You Do?**
This role consists of approximately 70% hands-on testing and 30% test coordination activities.
Your responsibilities include:
* Perform detailed manual testing of functional and non-functional requirements to validate software quality, reliability, usability, and security.
* Plan, coordinate, and support testing activities throughout the full test lifecycle in line with Blyce's Test Strategy and Test Policy.
* Review the test basis, conduct product risk analyses, assess the impact of defects, and translate findings into effective test approaches, plans, scripts, and effort estimates.
* Contribute to sprint and release planning and support test automation where appropriate.
* Monitor test progress and quality metrics, preserve testware, and report clearly on results, risks, and quality status to project teams, clients, and other stakeholders.
* Provide well-founded advice on quality-related decisions and proactively address risks, bottlenecks, priorities, and improvements.
* Perform peer reviews and quality checks and contribute to continuous improvements in testing processes, procedures, standards, deliverables, and quality indicators.
* Collaborate closely with multidisciplinary and international teams, share knowledge, coach less experienced testers, and help develop testing best practices.
* Act as a visible specialist in an area such as functional testing, security, performance, or automation, taking responsibility for the quality and development of that specialization.
* Help translate unit goals into team goals and provide input for objectives.
* Stay up to date with developments in testing, quality assurance, and information security, and consistently apply company policies, processes, and procedures.
