About Amber Labs

Amber Labs is a forward-thinking digital consultancy delivering innovative cloud, data, and DevOps solutions across the UK public sector. We specialise in helping organisations achieve digital transformation at pace while maintaining the highest security and governance standards.

We are seeking a Test Engineer with a strong automation-first mindset to support the delivery of high-quality digital services.

Role Overview

This role requires a candidate with hands-on experience designing, developing, and maintaining automated tests across both API and UI layers. The successful candidate will work closely with developers, analysts, and delivery teams to embed quality throughout the software development lifecycle.

This is not a manual testing role. Candidates must demonstrate active experience in test automation and be comfortable contributing to modern engineering practices, including shift-left testing and CI/CD integration.

Key Responsibilities

* Design, develop, and maintain automated test frameworks and test suites

* Execute API and UI automation testing activities

* Contribute to test strategy and quality engineering practices

* Integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines

* Identify, investigate, and manage defects through to resolution

* Collaborate closely with:

Developers
Business Analysts
Product Owners
Delivery teams

* Support continuous improvement of testing frameworks, tooling, and processes

* Advocate for quality throughout the software development lifecycle

FYI - Full job description provided via qualification call(s).

Why Join Us?

* Be part of a dynamic and innovative team, with opportunities for professional growth and development

* Competitive salary and benefits package

* Opportunity to shape and influence asset management strategy in a fast‑paced environment

Benefits

* Join a rapidly expanding start‑up where personal growth is a part of our DNA

* Benefit from a flexible work environment focused on deliverable outcomes

* Receive private medical insurance

* 25 days of annual leave plus UK bank holidays.

Diversity & Inclusion

Here at Amber Labs, we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace for all. We celebrate individuality and believe that different perspectives drive innovation. Every colleague is valued, respected, and supported to thrive.

What Happens Next?

Our Talent Acquisition Team will be in touch to advise you on the next steps. We have a two‑stage interview process for most of our consultants. In certain cases, we may include a third and final stage: a conversation with the end client. This will only be considered if deemed necessary.
