Responsibilities

Do you want to make a difference and contribute to creating a better world? Are you interested in developing your skills and knowledge, while putting your ideals to work? Join us, we are a frontrunner in ethical banking and global impact investing, and we need people like you to make change happen.

We believe that money can change the world for the better. In fact, our organisation was founded on this belief. Our mission is to create a society that protects and promotes the quality of life of all its members with human dignity at its core.

Because of an internal rotation we're are searching for 2 new colleagues:

Test Engineer / Release Manager (32-40 h/wk)

Do you like coordinating releases and testing software at a socially involved and sustainable bank?

Then we are looking for you!

You know better than anyone that testing is crucial for high software quality. Quality that we monitor by extensively testing the software, both manually and automatically, before we let our customers and colleagues work with it. You also know better than anyone that testing is more than just checking whether the promised functionality meets the customer's demand. You are someone who can assess risks well and who considers quality to be of paramount importance. You also convey this to the rest of the team and the organization. Besides that you also like to combine the work of a software tester with release management activities. We are currently taking concrete steps in the field of continuous delivery and possibly in the future also in the field of continuous deployment. You like to be involved in these kinds of initiatives and you also have (some) experience with them.

What are you going to do?

• You'll test the work of the software engineers of the team.
• You'll coordinate the releases, from test to production.
• You'll coordinate the monthly and annual tests.
• You'll monitor the test & support environments.
• You'll evaluate hotfix releases together with the teams involved, in order to improve structurally.
• You'll monitor the entire release process for quality, completeness and timeliness (including the release calendar).
• You'll be closely involved in improvement processes in the release and testing process.
• You'll actively participate in the test guild.
