• ensuring end-to-end functionality across systems.

🚀Mentor/lead mindset (must-have):

• you can guide other engineers in testing practices,
• you're comfortable leading by example, coaching, and raising quality standards across a wider scope than just your own tasks.

🚀Strong analysis and risk thinking:

• ability to analyze complex systems, identify quality risks, and propose mitigation strategies.

🚀Confident communication & coordination skills:

• you collaborate smoothly with Product Owners, Business Analysts, and Developers,
• you can explain issues clearly and drive alignment on what "done" means.

🚀Experience working in Agile delivery and familiarity with Agile ways of working (Scrum / Kanban / SAFe).

ARE YOU WILLING TO...

🚀Own quality end-to-end, not just test cases - making sure applications stay operational and available 24/7.

🚀Lead cross-area test planning and execution when multiple systems need to "click" together.

🚀Work as a strong contributor in an Agile team, staying close to the product and engineering conversations.

🚀Mentor others - helping improve testing approaches, structure, and confidence across the team.

🚀Be onsite in Tallinn at least 3 days per week (you must already be in Estonia for this role).

WHY THIS PROJECT?

🚀Real responsibility and real impact: your work directly supports a critical risk-domain area where reliability and data quality matter.

🚀Complexity worth your seniority: cross-system integration, end-to-end flows, and quality ownership - not isolated testing in a corner.

🚀A runway through the end of 2026: a long-term engagement where you can actually raise the bar, mentor others, and see improvements stick.

🚀Consulting environment, grown-up expectations: you'll be trusted to lead, coordinate, and make quality visible - not just "execute tasks".
