Analytics & Automation Test Engineer
Remote (Occasional Travel to Letchworth office)
Circa £35,000 per annum + benefits
Permanent
Are you early in your testing career and keen to work somewhere AI is already part of how testing gets done? This Analytics & Automation Test Engineer role is a chance to test data platforms, integrations, RPA and an AI agent, all in one job.
You'll be the floating tester across a Data Platforms and Analytics function, covering the middleware, data analytics, RPA and data platform teams. Rather than hand-writing every script, you'll use AI tooling to write and run tests, then apply your own judgement to validate the results.
It's a role for someone with genuine technical curiosity who wants broad exposure fast, and you'll help shape how testing is done across the department.
What You'll Be Doing
- Planning and running functional, regression, integration and user acceptance testing across several delivery teams
- Using AI tools, including an in-house LLM-based tool, to generate and execute tests, then checking and validating the output
- Testing an internally built AI agent, APIs and end-to-end data flows, including transformations, error handling and exceptions
- Validating data warehouse, lakehouse and reporting outputs built on Azure Synapse, Microsoft Fabric, Power BI and Tableau
- Testing UiPath RPA processes against documented business rules, covering happy paths, exceptions and performance
- Writing SQL queries and lightweight Python scripts to reconcile source-to-target data and support root cause analysis
What You'll Bring
- Some experience in testing or QA, or a technical background with a real interest in moving into testing
- Working SQL and the ability to query relational databases
- Some Python (or R) for data validation or test automation
- Hands‑on use of AI tools such as ChatGPT or LLM-based coding assistants, and the judgement to check what they produce
- A structured, detail‑focused approach and the confidence to work across several teams at once
Desirable: Playwright (especially Playwright MCP), Selenium or Puppeteer, API testing, Azure Synapse, Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, Tableau, UiPath, cloud platforms, a degree in Computer Science or a related subject
This role may suit candidates who have held roles including: Test Analyst, QA Analyst, Junior Test Engineer, Data Test Analyst, Automation Tester, QA Engineer, Graduate Software Tester
