Welcome to MICE DESK  MICE DESK is the leading European company automating the sales process in the hospitality industry — and we are now expanding to the US. Our platform, Rocket, turns event, meeting, and group inquiries into autonomous end-to- end workflows: from RFP to signed contract, across email, CRM, and PMS systems. We integrate with the systems hotels actually run on — Oracle OPERA Cloud, SIHOT, Guestline, Salesforce, Marriott's enterprise stack — which means our engineers work inside real hotel operations, not against sandbox APIs. We are a Series A-stage company with a deliberately small team and real enterprise traction: major hotel groups across Europe run their group sales on Rocket. The people joining now shape the product, the deployment playbook, and the culture.  The Role QA Automation Engineers are how Rocket stays reliable at scale. You build the automation frameworks, testing infrastructure, and quality processes that allow Engineering to ship quickly without compromising stability. This is an automation-first role focused on building quality into every stage of the development lifecycle. You work closely with Engineering, Product, and DevOps to ensure every feature, integration, and release is validated through automated testing before it reaches production. If you enjoy designing automation systems, solving complex engineering problems, and creating the foundations that enable fast, confident software delivery, this is the role. What You Will Own  1. Test automation, end-to-end. Own the strategy and implementation of automated testing across the platform. Design scalable automation frameworks for UI, API, integration, and end-to-end testing, continuously increasing automated test coverage while ensuring tests remain reliable, maintainable, and efficient. 2. CI/CD quality engineering. Build quality directly into the deployment pipeline by integrating automated testing throughout the CI/CD process. Establish quality gates, monitor test execution, improve developer feedback loops, and reduce release risk through continuous validation. 3. Platform quality and reliability. Ensure the reliability of Rocket's distributed systems by validating APIs, integrations, backend services, and AI-powered workflows. Develop regression, smoke, and integration testing strategies while identifying quality risks early in the development lifecycle. 4. Engineering collaboration. Partner closely with Engineering and Product throughout feature development. Promote testability, establish automation best practices, participate in technical design discussions, and help build a culture where quality is a shared engineering responsibility. 5. Continuous improvement. Continuously evolve our quality engineering practices by introducing modern automation tools, improving testing processes, strengthening regression coverage, and driving automation-first thinking across the engineering organization.
