Job Description

At Aberdeen, our ambition is to be the UK’s leading Wealth & Investments group.

Strengthening talent and culture is one of our strategic priorities. We strive to make Aberdeen a great place to work so that we can attract and retain the industry’s best talent.

Our people put our stakeholders at the heart of everything they do by helping us to make a positive difference to the lives of our clients, customers, colleagues, shareholders, and society.

We are focused on growing our direct and advised wealth platforms and repositioning our specialist asset management business to meet client demand. We are committed to providing excellent client service, supported by leading technology and talent.

Aberdeen comprises three businesses, interactive investor (ii), Investments, and Adviser, each of which focuses on meeting and adapting to our clients’ evolving needs:

Interactive investor, the UK’s second largest direct-to-consumer investment platform, enables individuals in the UK to plan, save, and invest in the way that works for them.
Our Adviser business provides financial planning solutions and technology for UK financial advisers, enabling them to create value for their customers.
Our Investments business is a specialist asset manager that focuses on areas where we have both strength and scale to capitalise on the key themes shaping the market, through either public markets or alternative asset classes.

About Aberdeen Adviser Product & Technology

Hybrid in Edinburgh

At Aberdeen Adviser, we are building a modern, scalable technology platform that empowers financial advisers to serve their clients more efficiently. Our engineering teams work in cross-functional squads to develop innovative, high-quality software solutions that make a real impact. We foster a culture of collaboration, experimentation, and continuous learning, where every engineer can shape the future of our platform.

About the role

As a Quality Engineer, you will play a key role in ensuring that quality is embedded throughout the software development lifecycle. Reporting to the Quality Engineering Chapter Lead, you will work closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to champion a quality-first mindset, ensuring our products meet the highest standards of reliability, usability, and performance.

You will work across multiple cross-functional squads (typically two), balancing priorities and enabling consistent quality practices across teams.

This role is a blend of quality assurance and quality coaching, where you will not only test software but also mentor developers on best practices, define test strategies, and advocate for testing from the customer’s perspective. The role emphasises defining test strategy, coverage, and standards, while enabling engineers to own test implementation, execution, and maintenance. You will drive both manual and automated testing approaches, selecting the best tools for the job in a polyglot environment.

Key Responsibilities

Design and contribute to automated and exploratory tests, ensuring software meets functional and non-functional requirements, particularly for complex and critical scenarios.

Collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and designers to ensure quality is built in from the start.

Define test scenarios and coverage, breaking down acceptance criteria into happy path, edge, and negative cases.

Establish test strategy and layering (unit, component, API, contract, integration, E2E).

Guide teams in test planning and ensure appropriate coverage across performance, security, accessibility, and usability.

Foster a quality-first mindset, mentoring engineers on best practices in testing, CI/CD, and automation.

Build and evolve test frameworks and reusable components, enabling teams to implement automated testing and integrate into CI/CD pipelines.

Perform targeted exploratory testing to uncover edge cases and usability concerns.

Advocate for service reliability and real-world testing scenarios, including performance under load, failover conditions, and system resilience.

Write clear and reproducible defect reports and contribute to technical documentation.

Take a polyglot approach to testing tools, selecting the best frameworks for different tech stacks and projects.

Continuously improve testing practices, standards, and tooling, sharing knowledge with the wider team.

Review PRs to ensure test quality, coverage, and adherence to standards.

Enable teams to adopt best practices, patterns, and testing standards.

Support fast feedback loops through CI/CD and shift-left testing approaches.

Work across multiple teams, balancing priorities based on risk, delivery needs, and quality maturity.

Quality is owned by engineering teams. The QE role focuses on defining strategy, enabling teams, and improving practices, while engineers own test implementation, execution, and maintenance.

Leverage AI-driven testing approaches to generate tests from requirements, analyse results, improve coverage, support execution (including reducing flaky failures), and ensure usage aligns with defined standards, guardrails, and human review.

What We’re Looking For

Experience in manual and automated testing, with an understanding of when to apply each.

Strong collaboration and coaching skills, with the ability to mentor engineers on best practices in quality.

Knowledge of testing frameworks and tools (e.g., Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, Jest, JUnit, Postman, or similar).

Familiarity with cloud platforms (Azure preferred) and CI/CD pipelines for automated testing.
Prior exposure to modern tech stack environment - ideally JavaScript and /or Typescript

Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to think like a customer, ensuring usability and accessibility.

Experience working in agile environments, embedding testing within cross-functional teams.

A proactive mindset, always looking for ways to improve quality and streamline testing processes.

Experience defining test strategy and coverage across multiple layers.

Ability to work across more than one team and influence without direct ownership.

Interest or experience in AI-driven testing approaches.

Why Join aberdeen Adviser?

Make a real impact by ensuring our products are high-quality, user-friendly, and resilient.
