đŸ§‘đŸ»â€đŸ’» About the role

First things first: you want to know what you’re actually applying for. It’s impossible to capture every nuance of a role – especially at a rapidly growing company like Mews – but if we had to distill it down to a job description (which we do because this is a job description), it would be this:

You’re not a tester, you’re a developer. Our Software Development Engineers in Test (SDETs) bridge the gap between Quality Assurance and Software Engineering, and it’s all about automation. To ensure that Mews delivers high quality applications to hotels and guests around the world, we need to elevate our testing game - we need automation engineers. If you prefer script-writing over document-writing, and frameworks over manual work, then we can be friends.This role is embedded in the engineering team and works closely with product managers, data analysts and DevOps to guide development outcomes. We use GitHub, C#,TypeScript and Azure DevOps for tools, and we welcome innovative solutions and languages.

 

✅ Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

  • Develop and maintain automated test suites, frameworks, and tools to support engineers.
  • Integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines for continuous testing.
  • Promote best testing practices and collaborate on testing strategies.
  • Ensure high-quality, efficient test suites with thorough documentation and a 100% green board.
  • Guide risk assessment and mitigation.
  • Work with teams to align testing with requirements.
  • Mentor engineers in writing maintainable tests and foster a quality culture.
  • Write clean, efficient code as a model.
  • Enhance testing processes and stay current with industry trends.
  • Drive initiatives to improve code and development quality.
  • Maintain stable, scalable testing environments.
  • Monitor quality metrics and resolve issues quickly.

đŸ€ïž You’ll be a great fit if you bring a few of the below with you:

  • Proficient in programming languages (e.g., C#, TypeScript).
  • Skilled in software testing methodologies (unit, integration, functional, performance).
  • Experienced with test automation tools/frameworks (e.g., Selenium, JUnit, Cypress).
  • Knowledgeable in CI/CD practices and tools (Github).
  • Balances long-term quality with short-term delivery.
  • Adept at debugging complex, multi-system issues.
  • Strong grasp of SDLC and Agile methodologies.
  • Communicates technical concepts clearly to all stakeholders.
  • Mentors engineers and fosters collaborative problem-solving.
  • Exhibits empathy and active listening.
  • Committed to staying updated with industry trends.
  • Proactively seeks/provides feedback to enhance performance.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
  • Experienced in DevOps and “You build it, you run it” approach.
  • Understands production concerns (performance, resilience, observability).
  • Handles incident management and rapid issue resolution.

đŸ€·đŸ» Who is Mews?

We want to get to know you, so it’s only fair we tell you a little bit about ourselves first. Mews has been transforming hospitality since 2012. What began in a single hotel in Prague now powers thousands of hotels around the world, as they pursue their mission to develop transformational solutions for brands and create remarkable experiences for guests. 

Since the beginning, Mews embraced being different. Mews is not simply a property management system, but a connected hospitality cloud with products across the hotel ecosystem and more integrations than anyone else. 

From global hospitality brands to independent properties, hoteliers join Mews because they recognize the power of innovation. They understand that they can benefit from hotel tech that drives efficiency, maximizes revenue, and improves guest happiness.

Powering over 5,000 customers across more than 85 countries, Mews Hospitality Cloud is designed to streamline operations for modern hoteliers, transform the guest experience and create more profitable businesses. 

Ranked 24th in the FT 1000 list of the fastest-growing European companies in 2021, Mews has been recognized as the Best PMS by industry peers at the HotelTechAwards in both 2020 and 2024, consistently earning acclaim. Mews also achieved finalist status in 2021 and 2022. What's more, we take immense pride in being listed among the Best Places to Work in Hotel Tech during those same years and again this year. But our achievements don't stop there; Mews was also listed among the World's Best Hotel PMS Provider 2023 and as the World's Best Independent Hotel PMS Provider 2022 and 2023 by the World Travel Tech Awards.

Sometimes the work can be challenging and there can be a lot of it, but you’ll always be able to rely on those around you.

đŸ€– AI and Hiring at Mews

At Mews, we believe AI enhances our work but should not replace what humanises it and makes it individually ours.

As you apply, feel free to use AI to help structure your thoughts — but ensure your application and conversations with us, reflect your personal opinions, capabilities and experience. We’re building an AI-enabled workforce, and that starts with people who think independently and bring fresh ideas to the table. Because at Mews, making work more human is the ultimate goal.
