Application ends: 2026-07-26

Quick Summary

ABOUT YOU is seeking a Senior Quality Assurance Engineer in Hamburg to design and maintain automated test suites and build test tools for its Sponsored Content & Product team. This role requires over five years of QA experience, proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and PHP/Laravel, and expertise with UI testing frameworks like Playwright or Cypress. Experience with Storybook or the ad-tech and e-commerce sectors is highly valued.

Company Description

ABOUT YOU is one of the fastest-growing e-commerce companies in Europe. With locations in Hamburg and Berlin, we bring fashion and technology together. Our mission is to rethink online shopping and make it more personal. This requires more than just good ideas. It takes people who show initiative and challenge the status quo. We rely on flat hierarchies, direct communication, and pragmatic decisions. There are no long coordination paths with us. We work dedicatedly and at the same time value enjoying our time together, whether at team lunches, after-work drinks, company events, or a quick coffee between two meetings.

Job Description

The Sponsored Content & Products team is a central growth driver. Our mission is to build highly scalable self-service marketplaces for Cost-per-Click (CPC) bidding. This enables brands to efficiently increase their visibility in real-time directly at the digital point of sale.

Although we operate within an existing ecosystem, our evolution toward specialized product teams offers an autonomous, greenfield-like environment. Your QA automation blueprints and test frameworks will directly secure application stability, increase developer velocity, and enable us to safely multiply our retail media revenues.

  • Develop test tools, configurations, and mock layers that enable developers to write and maintain their own reliable tests
  • Design, implement, and maintain scalable automated test suites (E2E, integration, UI) to catch regressions before they reach production
  • Apply exploratory manual testing to new features and use these insights to iteratively expand our automated test suites
  • Collaborate with product managers and developers to refine acceptance criteria, reproduce complex bugs, and manage the bug lifecycle

Qualifications

  • University degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience in the tech industry
  • 5+ years of professional experience in software quality assurance
  • Solid experience in writing and maintaining automated UI test suites with modern frameworks such as Playwright, Cypress, or similar tools
  • Confident handling of testing RESTful endpoints and managing network-level mocking patterns with tools like MSW, Postman, or native framework stubs
  • Proficient with modern web stacks (JavaScript/TypeScript and React ecosystems) as well as server-side API environments like PHP/Laravel
  • Fluent English skills in word and writing for clear technical documentation and team communication
  • A collaborative mindset focused on building a test infrastructure that makes it easy for the entire team to deliver quality
  • Ability to balance attention to detail and development speed, knowing when absolute strictness is required for critical processes and when smaller features can be released quickly
  • Self-motivation to proactively identify gaps in test coverage without constant supervision
  • Ability to communicate technical bugs, edge cases, and quality trade-offs clearly, constructively, and objectively to developers and product owners

Nice To Have

  • Experience using Storybook components to build visual regression or snapshot testing routines
  • Prior experience in e-commerce, retail-tech, or ad-tech dealing with analytics reporting platforms or advertiser workflows
