About the Position

Software Engineer - Quality Engineering

RepRisk is seeking a dedicated Software Engineer, Quality to join our Quality Engineering team within the Global Technology Division. This role is pivotal in developing frameworks, tooling, and automation that empower teams to continuously validate, observe, and enhance the quality of their systems.

Responsibilities

As our new Software Engineer, Quality, you will:

• Design and implement reusable automated-testing scaffolding for data pipelines and data products.
• Integrate automated checks and quality feedback into CI/CD and data delivery workflows.
• Contribute to the design of quality gates, minimum test expectations, and engineering standards.
• Help delivery teams adopt shared testing capabilities and create maintainable tests for their own data pipelines and products.
• Provide hands-on implementation or coaching where needed.
• Build tooling that simplifies the process for engineers to add tests, understand failures, and act on quality signals.
• Review the effectiveness of implemented checks and guardrails, and improve them based on evidence and team feedback.
• Participate in the broader Quality Engineering team, sharing learnings and contributing to quality-engineering practices beyond a single delivery team when needed.

Requirements

• Working proficiency in Python, including debugging code, writing automated tests, and using technical documentation effectively.
• Strong knowledge of SQL, including understanding of data pipelines, transformation workflows, and the ways data can become incomplete, inconsistent, stale, duplicated, or incorrectly transformed.
• Understanding of test architecture and different layers like unit, integration, contract, and end-to-end, and experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD workflows.
• Professional proficiency in English.

Nice to Have

• Experience working with data-intensive, distributed, or platform-oriented systems.
• Experience with Databricks or another modern data platform.
• Familiarity with GitLab CI/CD.
• Experience with AWS or another cloud platform.
• Experience with data contracts, schema validation, pipeline observability, or data-quality tooling.
• Experience enabling engineering teams to own and maintain automated tests rather than creating a permanent dependency on a separate testing function.
• Exposure to AI-assisted engineering tooling or the validation of AI-generated outputs.

We Offer

• Flexible working hours and a hybrid model (with home office days).
• Up to 4 weeks per year working abroad, subject to policy and approvals.
• Paid training and volunteering days, plus charity donation matching.
• Health & fitness subsidy to support your wellbeing.
• Frequent team and social events that bring our global community together.
• A welcoming office environment with complimentary coffee, refreshments, fresh fruit, and healthy snacks.
• A company that embraces diversity and values different perspectives.
