About ThoughtWorks:
As we start to build our new office in Uganda, we are looking for
amazing people to join our team. We’re looking for experienced QA/testers to
join our team. Now, being a ThoughtWorks tester is a little bit different to
that role in most organisations. Testers are involved from the initial
requirements gathering, through implementation to deployment. One of the team
is always around to ask the awkward questions and try the scenarios that our
analysts or developers are unlikely to dream up. They are involved when
analysts are capturing requirements in the form of user stories. These stories
are then converted into acceptance tests outlining specific scenarios. Testers
play a big part in making sure those tests are well defined and complete so
that developers know when they have finished implementing the functionality
defined in a story.
From a humanist perspective, we’re committed to using the power of
technology to improve our world. Our Social Impact Program is led by a set of
experts who combine a passion for social change with real-life experience in
technology design, delivery and deployment in the developing world.

  • Practical testing
    across a whole range of functional and cross-functional tests

    exploratory testing approach, not just working to test plans

    web-based and mobile applications
  • Understanding of full

  • Spotting failures,
    identifying root-causes, and defining corrective actions
  • Spotting when test
    automation will bring value to the process
  • Working closely with
    developers, business and other quality analysts and clients in a highly
    collaborative environment 
Qualifications, Skills, and Experience:
  • Strong collaboration
    skills, especially when it comes to working with developers
  • Experience maintaining
    and evolving legacy test environments using continuous integration
    practices
  • Several years of
    experience as a tester/QA delivering high-tech software projects
  • Experience with test
    automation tools (like Watir, Selenium, Fitnesse, QTP and others) and
    frameworks (like Cucumber or Capybara)
  • Notions of
    configuration management, like SVN and GIT
  • Familiarity with
    automated deployment processes
  • Experience of, or an
    interest in working in an an agile environment
  • Influencing skills to
    encourage clients to work in a more agile fashion
  • Understanding of OO
    design. A strong background in software development would be interesting
  • A strong values
    alignment to ThoughtWorks business and social mission
  • Good written and
    spoken communication skills.
