How you support our team

We’re looking for an experienced Test Engineer (m/f/d) to join our growing team, taking responsibility for ensuring our complex, distributed platform runs reliably, securely and at high performance. You will build and maintain the test strategy across multiple services and layers, ranging from unit tests of individual microservices through to end-to-end tests covering the entire RDP/WebSocket streaming infrastructure. You will work closely with our development, DevOps and product teams and play a key role in embedding quality early in the development cycle. With us, you will have a direct impact on the quality of a live SaaS platform and work in a small, technically driven team with short decision-making paths. Our modern tech stack is consistently cloud-native, Kubernetes-first and GitOps-oriented. You will help shape our test strategy from the ground up and build something that lasts.

Your tasks and responsibilities

  • Development and maintenance of a holistic testing strategy (unit, integration, E2E, load and security tests) for our oneclick platform
  • Building and further developing the test automation infrastructure in GitLab CI/CD
  • Defining coverage thresholds and quality gates in the CI pipeline

 

Microservice tests (Go / TypeScript)

  • Writing and maintaining unit and integration tests for Go-based microservices
  • Extending the Jest/Supertest test suite for the REST services (Node.js/TypeScript, Express, Passport)

  • Mocking external dependencies within Laravel (HTTP clients, queue jobs, events)

 

Frontend tests (Vue.js / Playwright)

  • Building a Playwright E2E test suite for the Vue.js-based frontends
  • Coverage of critical user journeys: login/SSO, app start-up, desktop streaming, admin workflows
  • Visual regression tests for white-label configurations
  • Component-level tests with Vitest or Vue Test Utils for isolated UI logic
  • Integration of Playwright tests into GitLab CI with screenshots and traces as artefacts

 

Load testing & performance

  • Designing and running load tests for critical API endpoints and streaming connections (e.g. with k6 or Artillery)
  • Identifying performance bottlenecks and regressions
  • Smoke and sanity tests following deployments to dev, staging and live environments

 

Security & compliance testing

  • Coordinating and tracking penetration tests (e.g. A3Sec engagements)
