Software engineer in test automation

Today, Batmaid is the leading platform to book a housekeeping service in a few clicks. We provide our clients with trusted and professional cleaning agents and a 5-star experience! Our software and customer-focused business allowed us to become the chart-topper company in Switzerland and Luxembourg within just 5 years. Only recently we have opened 6 new offices around Europe in countries like France, Belgium and Germany.

Our ambition is to go fully CI/CD before the end of the year and in order to do that we need your talent as an experienced coder or automation engineer. Our current pipeline makes sure that only reviewed, statically analyzed, unit tested and manually smoke tested code gets merged. Multiple hours of unit and integration tests are squeezed into 10 minutes runtime thanks to serverless build parallelisation. This enables us to ship platform updates multiple times per day with high confidence. We are aiming high to become a truly elite team (like Slack) and ship faster. For this purpose, we need to reliably automate E2E scenarios being tested manually.

You will join a multidisciplinary Scrum team, supported by top DevOps engineers and veteran TypeScript frontend developers. The job is not limited to test automation as you will have the opportunity to work alongside the RnD team on all kinds of automation and internal tooling.
