Salesforce QA

Job Title: Senior Quality Engineer - Salesforce QA

Location: London, UK

Contract role

Role Definition

Client develops its own core business applications. From business acquisition through to servicing and beyond.

Therefore, this role will focus on building in and ensuring quality within software development. This means

ensuring that from the capture of requirements, through design, implementation and release the relevant

questions are being asked, the right things are being checked against the requirements and that the specification

is being executed using appropriate techniques to give confidence to stakeholders that the delivery of new

functionality is up to the quality standards that are expected within Client.

There will be a large technology component. Testing the underwriting, policy administration, claims

management, CRM and finance systems, not to mention the online customer facing platforms, by hand is very

inefficient. This role will have the responsibility to provide the right expertise and bring in suitable technology to

incorporate the quality process into software development and enable faster feedback for increasing software

development productivity.
