About the job
What you can achieve
- You work with realistic data: You identify, create and maintain test data that represent real deployment scenarios, thus ensuring meaningful test results, including with the customer on site
- You test in a structured and targeted manner: You systematically execute test cases, document the results and evaluate them with technical acumen
- You get to the bottom of errors: Bugs are not a nuisance for you, but exciting puzzles. You document them in detail – including environment, reproduction steps and impact analysis

- Confident use of modern CI/CD tools and virtualisation environments (GitLab, Git, Jenkins, Ansible, hypervisor technologies, ...), including building and maintaining corresponding pipelines
- You have several years of practical experience in software testing and have a good sense for quality, processes and technology
- You are familiar with modern test and development methods and ideally hold one or more certifications: ISTQB Certified Tester (FL/TA), IREB Foundation Level, ITIL Foundation, Hermes or Scrum Master
- You work in a structured, analytical and independent manner – and always keep an overview even in complex test environments
