Mentimeter's vision is to transform presentations and meetings into fun and interactive experiences by making it easy to listen and to be heard. To achieve this vision, we must meet the demands of our current 150 million user-base, and scale to meet the needs of the next 150 million. The DevOps team at Mentimeter will enable our growing product team to work in a way that makes this possible.
We believe that DevOps cannot be performed in a vacuum. The best ways to improve engineering culture are to spread knowledge and good practice through the organization and to reduce work through automation. We are therefore looking for team members who are technical enough to automate processes where possible and passionate enough to demonstrate to others the value of their craft.
For everything we do at Mentimeter, we strive to automate and simplify. We keep our platform advanced enough to support our main use cases while keeping its complexity and maintenance cost low. If there is an external provider or SaaS that provides a good solution, we tend to choose it over building one ourselves. We like to spend our time developing what matters, rather than what others have already made. For example, we currently prefer to use Heroku and Datadog rather than Kubernetes and Prometheus. We hope that you share this vision and help us to strike the right balance in these discussions going forward.
We believe that building testing into the design and implementation process is essential to be able to improve our product rapidly. We currently do not have specialized QA engineers and prefer to build QA work into the full-stack flow. As Mentimeter's Software Engineer in Test Lead, you will be responsible for creating an overarching testing strategy that suits our organization. By setting up metrics and defining achievable targets, you will support the product team to define an appropriate quality level for your strategy to succeed. While the end responsibility for quality should remain with each team, you will help to challenge these teams to continuously improve their quality baseline through automated testing.
Finally, you will be looking for pain points in the suite, helping to design and build tools that will keep our suite running quickly, reliably and frequently. To do this, we currently use React-testing-library and cypress for our front end suite, and rspec or ginkgo in the back end. We use Concourse CI and Github actions to run those tests. We don't expect you to be an expert in particularly these tools, but that you will have used similar tools before.
What you'll do:
Help define Mentimeters testing strategy and its success criteria (from defect escape ratio to coverage)
Suggest and implement projects that help us achieve those targets
Improve testing competence across the product organization through knowledge sharing
Propose and build tooling which automates toil and enables engineers
Work together with your team to implement features while ensuring the long-term stability of our system and the quality of the code
Influence which test tooling, programming languages, and technologies you (and the rest of the organization) work with
Balancer discovery phases with implementation work
Influence important decisions that will affect our future scalability and architecture

Requirements
We believe you have:
At least a few years of relevant working experience
Preferably an academic background
Experience in some of the techniques we use (see below)
Passion for software development, scalable architecture, and product building
A strong interest in testing and automation and care about code quality
Excellent communication skills and can work both independently and collaborate in a team

Not required:
You don't have to know Swedish (we are an English-first organization, everyday work is in English and the Mentimeter team currently boasts over 20 different nationalities!)
