Vacancy: QA Engineer (11 month contract)

AARRRGH

Hello

The company I work for are looking for a QA Engineer. It's an 11 month contract, but I would imagine if you're good you'd be made permanent.

You'll be exposed to a lot of different technologies (in a non-scary way) and in general it's a fairly nice place to work. It's a multinational in CityWest in Dublin south west.

I don't know what the salary is, but they pay pretty well.

Here's the job spec:

The candidate will be a professional who is committed to QA as a career, and will enjoy the challenge of working in a dynamic and technically challenging environment.

Essential skills & attributes:

• Applicants must have good knowledge of formal and informal test techniques, and various systems development methodologies.
• Good database administration and SQL skills (Oracle, DB/2 and/or MS SQL server)
• Good practical knowledge of Web applications and technologies (e.g. IIS, Apache, ASP, JSP, HTML, XML, SSL etc)
• The individual should be empirical and methodical, with effective technical analysis and problem solving skills.
• The candidate must have demonstrated organizational skills and first rate communications skills.
• The candidate should have a proven ability to demonstrate their intrinsic motivation by working proactively on their own initiative while at the same time contributing and performing well within a team. The candidate should demonstrate their preparedness to do the work necessary to achieve established deadlines and targets.
• The candidate must be keen to take on responsibility, and to develop their career to the next level within Sage.

Desirable skills & attributes:

• Programming skills, preferably with at least one script language (JavaScript, Java, Perl, etc.)
• Experience with the use of automated test tools is an advantage.
• Experience of business applications design and development in Sales Force Automation, ERP, or Contact management environments.

Experience:

• At least 3 years working in technical environments with web-based technologies with at least 2 of these working in a structured test environment preferably on enterprise applications (non-localisation).

Education:

• A relevant qualification is desirable i.e. BSc, MSc, ISTQB, etc

...

If you're interested in applying, contact me by PM. Also, let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers.
