Flutter UK & Ireland are the UKI region of Flutter Entertainment. They unite a dozen brands including powerhouses Paddy Power, Betfair, Tombola and Sky Betting & Gaming, bringing together hundreds of teams and thousands of colleagues, who create trusted entertainment for millions of customers every week.

Role purpose:

This role is primarily focused on helping a development team effectively and efficiently deliver high-quality product and services. As a Quality Engineer you’ll work with delivery teams to help facilitate the successful release of products and innovations to our customers. From the inception of the idea, all the way through getting it into the hands of our users - where appropriate you can be involved every step of the way - analyzing the risk of implementation, how a new feature will fit into our existing ecosystem, how it’ll be received by users, and, of course, facilitating the shipping of quality software.
You’ll have the opportunity to not only test our web and mobile applications, but also the inner workings of the Betfair system. Whereas some organizations shy away from testing at each level of their technology stack, Betfair actively encourages it. From service configurations to databases and APIs - there’s always something new and challenging to test. If you’ve ever been frustrated as a tester, not getting involved early enough, not having access to source code or even developers in order to fully understand how a system should work - then Betfair is for you - we actively encourage open collaboration between all members of our development team.
