We’re looking for a Senior Quality Engineer to help shape how quality is built into our product.
Our SQEs work across multiple product teams, partnering with Engineering, Product Leads and Design across different areas of Circle. You’ll get involved throughout the development lifecycle. Exploring ideas, identifying risks, challenging assumptions and helping teams make better decisions about quality.
This is a collaborative, hands-on role for someone who enjoys being close to the product, moving between different problem spaces and making Quality Engineering visible across the organisation.

Build and maintain reliable automated coverage across web, APIs and integrations.
Make thoughtful decisions about what to automate, where to test it and what provides the strongest signal.
Investigate complex failures across the application, APIs, CI pipelines and supporting systems.
Work with engineers to improve testability, reliability and developer feedback loops.
Use modern engineering and AI-assisted tooling where it improves planning, automation, debugging or investigation.
