• Referral bonus – €3,000 when your referral successfully starts with us on a permanent contract.

• Virtual share option program – share in the success you help create through our virtual stock options.

• Corporate benefits – exclusive online discounts through our Corporate Benefits portal.

• Feel-good culture with an energy boost – a fully stocked office kitchen, fitness sessions, and active breaks for body and mind.

• Team spirit that connects – whether it’s console gaming, foosball, or table tennis: we work and laugh together. Regular team events and an annual offsite strengthen our sense of connection.

• Exclusive insights into the world of finance – as part of our team, you’ll benefit from unique expertise and direct access to innovative investment topics.

• Personal development – with targeted training opportunities and plenty of room to grow and evolve.

What to expect from us

• As a (Senior) QA Engineer (f/m/d), you will take responsibility for sustainable and comprehensive quality assurance of our software from A to Z.

• You will thoroughly review and approve all new features to ensure everything works exactly as it should.

• You will reproduce, document, and manage software bugs throughout the entire lifecycle of our web applications.

• You will build and further develop an automated end-to-end test suite (e.g., using Cypress) to sustainably ensure the high quality of our software.

• You will work closely with the Product and Engineering teams to deeply understand our applications and accurately capture dependencies and interactions.

• Beyond testing, you will write release notes and knowledge articles to ensure that all stakeholders are informed about functionalities, changes, and known issues.

• You have an eye for detail, but never lose sight of the bigger picture — you look beyond the obvious and track down even the most persistent bugs.

• You support your team with constructive feedback and promote a strong QA mindset throughout the entire development process.

What we’re looking for

• You bring several years of experience in QA or software testing, ideally in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

• You have a degree in (Business) Informatics, Software Engineering, or a comparable qualification. But: career changers with unconventional profiles are very welcome — as long as you have a keen eye for detail and enjoy working with software.

• You already have hands-on experience with the Ruby on Rails stack or are eager to quickly dive into new technologies.

• You have initial experience with testing systems such as Cypress or Selenium.

• You have basic knowledge of at least one programming language (preferably JavaScript) or are motivated to acquire it.

• You love diving into details, understanding functional connections, and clearly documenting them — for example in release notes or internal knowledge articles.

• You work in a structured and independent manner and never lose track, even in complex processes.

• You find the FinTech world exciting and are eager to get involved where there’s real impact to be made.

• If not everything applies to you: be bold! We believe that people with curiosity, precision, and a passion for quality can make a huge contribution.

What matters to us

• We are committed to evaluating every person based on their skills, regardless of age, gender, identity, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, or religion.

• From day one, you can make a real impact with us: using the OKR method, we define our strategic goals together and determine the actions needed to achieve them.

If you’re looking for a team you can truly count on — not just coworkers, but friends, then you’re in the right place. Go together is one of our core values: team spirit is the key to tackling our biggest challenges. We achieve success together and celebrate it together.

Give your career a Go!

We look forward to receiving your application, including your desired starting date.

Our People Team will get back to you as soon as possible — usually within 48 hours. Should it take a little longer, we kindly ask for your understanding.
