About the Company
- Our ambition: In a best-in-class Shopify environment, QA is an accelerator, not a bottleneck. Your automation will provide the confidence required to release features rapidly, embodying our culture of "bias for action" and "intelligent rebellion". You will be the first dedicated QA Engineer in our new structure, giving you the autonomy to define our testing strategy and tooling from scratch.
- Our culture is our DNA. It defines who we are, how we operate and how we hire. And it all springs from our values, which are very important to us:
- Bring your ‘A’ game: We bring a growth mindset as we disrupt the beauty industry. Showing up at our best, and never settling for average.
- Be intelligently rebellious: We challenge industry and business norms with purpose, not ego. Bold thinking, creative problem-solving and smart risk-taking are how we transform beauty.
- Bias for action: Speed matters. We act with urgency, make smart choices and learn through doing - because momentum drives progress
- Be customer obsessed: Our decisions begin and end with the customer in mind. We earn trust by delivering amazing quality and incredible value with an experience that consistently exceeds expectations.
- It’s all for one (& one for all): We’re better together. Trust, integrity and collaboration are how we build a culture where everyone grows, contributes and thrives—individually and collectively.
