Senior SDET / Software Engineer in Test – Azure / C# / CI/CD

UK Remote | Contract – Outside IR35 | Initial 6 Months | ASAP

 

I’m looking for a Senior SDET / Software Engineer in Test to join a major transformation programme.

You’ll be working on a legacy Microsoft application that’s been migrated into Azure, helping improve automated testing, CI/CD pipelines and release processes.

This is a hands-on engineering role, ideal for someone who can produce code, understands cloud infrastructure and enjoys improving how software is tested and delivered.

 

What you’ll be doing:

  • Building and integrating automated integration and end-to-end tests into GitHub Actions.

  • Automating Azure test environments, including infrastructure setup and teardown.

  • Developing reliable test data creation and clean-up processes.

  • Working with engineering and QA teams to improve test coverage and reduce manual testing.

  • Driving improvements to CI/CD practices and release automation.

 

What we’re looking for:

  • Strong coding experience, ideally C# / .NET.

  • Hands-on test automation experience, particularly integration and E2E testing.

  • Good knowledge of Microsoft Azure infrastructure.

  • Experience with GitHub Actions and CI/CD pipelines.

  • A proactive engineer comfortable taking ownership in a legacy environment.

 

We’re open to both experienced SDETs and Software Engineers with strong automated testing and Azure/CI/CD experience.

 

We’re moving quickly, with 1st Stage interview slots for the end of this week.
