Senior Quality Assurance Engineer - Sponsored Content & Product (all genders)
ABOUT YOU is one of Europe’s fastest growing e-commerce companies. Based in Hamburg and Berlin, we operate at the intersection of fashion and technology. Our mission is to rethink online shopping and make it personal and seamless. This takes more than good ideas. It takes people who take initiative and challenge the status quo. We believe in flat hierarchies, direct communication, and pragmatic decisions. No long approval chains. Just ownership, trust, and clear responsibility. We work hard, but we also believe in enjoying the ride together - over team lunches, afterwork drinks, company events, or a quick coffee in between meetings. If this sounds like you, ABOUT YOU could be the right place to bring in your perspective.
Job DescriptionThe Sponsored Content & Products team is a key growth driver. Its mission is to build highly scalable self-serve cost-per-click (CPC) bidding marketplaces that empower brands to efficiently boost their visibility in real time right at the digital point of sale.
Operating within an existing ecosystem, our evolution into specialized product teams provides an autonomous, greenfield-like environment. Your QA automation blueprints and testing frameworks will directly safeguard application stability, drive developer velocity, and enable us to safely multiply our Retail Media revenue.
- Build testing tools, configurations, and mock layers that enable engineers to write and maintain their own reliable tests
- Design, implement, and maintain scalable automated test suites (E2E, integration, UI) to catch regressions before they hit production

- Comfortable navigating modern web stacks involving JavaScript/TypeScript and React ecosystems, as well as server-side API environments like PHP/Laravel
- Fluent written and spoken English skills for clear technical documentation and team communication
- A collaborative mindset centered on building testing infrastructure that makes it easy for the whole team to deliver quality
