Communicate Recruitment

Job Ref:

CTI005929/Chels

Date posted:

Thursday, October 30, 2025

Location:

Cape Town, South Africa

Salary:

950 000 Annually

SUMMARY:
The Game Is Afoot.
A distinguished enterprise, whose name must remain confidential, seeks a mind of exceptional deduction — a Lead QA Architect — to uncover defects before they can whisper their mischief into production. The successful candidate will possess the rare ability to observe what others overlook: the faintest trace of a performance anomaly, the subtle scent of an untested API, the curious behavior of a misconfigured identity layer.

POSITION INFO:

Intimate familiarity with IDAM platforms — whether Azure AD, ForgeRock, or Okta — and the logic behind OAuth, SSO, MFA, and RBAC
A keen eye for the front end: React/Next.js, with tests executed through Playwright, JEST, and the ever-perceptive Axe for accessibility
Mastery of API interrogation using Postman and Swagger, coupled with the analytical strength of K6 or Gatling for performance forensics
Proficiency in Azure DevOps, YAML, and the subtle art of integrating quality into every stage of CI/CD
Foundational awareness of Terraform and Azure platform services, sufficient to understand the terrain upon which your tests must tread
A disciplined adherence to Agile QA practices — planning, executing, and reporting with the precision of a detective’s notebook
Facility with Azure DevOps Boards, Git, and the browser’s dev tools — your magnifying glass, pipe, and notebook in this digital investigation

If this summons stirs your curiosity, waste no moment — submit your credentials posthaste!
