Role
Who you are
- This isn’t a narrowly defined tester role—we’re looking for an all-round QA who’s as comfortable writing automation as they are running exploratory sessions, is product led, and who wants to shape the future of quality at Equals
- Thrive in dynamic, collaborative environments
- Are confident communicating across disciplines and championing quality early
- Have 2+ years’ experience in QA, ideally in agile, product-led tech teams
- Have hands-on experience with Cypress or similar modern test automation frameworks
- Understand web/mobile architecture and common test techniques
- Are excited by the possibilities of AI tools and low-code platforms to augment testing
- Enjoy exploratory testing, risk analysis, and seeing the bigger picture
- A role model for our values:
- Make it happen
- Succeed together
- Be the customer
- Go beyond
What the job involves
- You will join a very close-knit, talented and supportive team from various backgrounds who believe that bringing different perspectives together helps us understand our customers' needs. United, by one thing, making money management straightforward and cost-effective for our customers
- We’re seeking a Quality Engineer who brings energy, curiosity, and a strong sense of ownership to the QA function
- Champion quality within a cross-functional squad—using context-driven, exploratory testing to inform where and how you test, and ensuring the most valuable risks are addressed
- Use and help assess emerging low-code and AI-powered test tools to speed up repetitive tasks, enhance coverage, and support smarter debugging
- Take the lead on building and maintaining automated regression suites using Cypress, driving coverage for critical user journeys and enabling faster feedback loops
- Balance automation with intelligent exploratory testing: knowing when it’s better to think critically than code rigidly
- Design flexible test charters, coverage outlines, and lightweight documentation that support deep exploration without slowing delivery
- Collaborate with developers on testability, quality signals, and risk assessment—influencing story shaping and delivery planning
- Contribute to pipeline integration of test suites and improve CI test reliability and performance
- Work with other QAs and engineers to evolve our quality strategy—whether that’s how we tackle flaky tests, scale automation, or refine our exploratory approaches
- Offer support and informal mentorship to junior testers, especially around automation best practices, critical thinking, and risk-based approaches
Application process
- We will carry out individual interviews for shortlisted candidates and assess who is best suited for the role after we have discussed everything with you
Our take
Born in 2005 out of a desire to use technology to give customers a better deal, Equals' mission is to make money simple for everyone. Founded under the name "FairFX", Equals has been helping customers move and manage their money for years. The company consists of three brands, all working together to provide financial solutions for personal and business customers alike.
Having started as a foreign exchange platform, Equals is evolving into a broader money management platform, moving from originally international payments and travel money towards integrated money management solutions for consumers and businesses. The company covers a number of elements: travel, business expenses, personal finance, and payroll.
Equals has built great customer loyalty, strengthening its position in launching new products and helping it become a dominant force in the payments market. Looking to expand its financial services options for customers and secure its future, Equals agreed to an acquisition by embedded finance platform Railsr, which will be completed in the first half of 2025.
