Senior SQA Automation Analyst

Contour Software, Lahore, Pakistan

Job Description

The Division:
Fitronics is part of the Jonas Group of companies, which means a wealth of opportunities for growth, both as a business and for our individual team members as they plot their career paths in the world of software. Jonas’ genuine aim is to develop from within and opportunities for personal development are plentiful here.
Despite our success, we retain a small business culture and the associated agility which makes this an exciting place to work. Everyone has the opportunity to have their input in our ambitious and collaborative business, none more than our development team, who are our beating heart.

Fitronics; effective, user-friendly software for the sport, health, and fitness industry.
Here at Fitronics, our goal is to support businesses within the sport, health, and fitness industry to be more successful, with a focus on improving their member experience. We currently do this through three software brands, WAM, TRP and CoursePro.

Our TRP suite of tools help gyms, health and fitness clubs, and leisure centres better engage with their members. CoursePro saves those running sports courses time spent on admin whilst improving the pupil and parent learning experience. From humble beginnings (TRP was born out of an engineering student’s university enterprise project in 2002 and the first lines of code for CoursePro were written in the corner of a back office of a Somerset swimming pool in 2009) we are now market leaders; working with over 1,200 facilities across the globe including major players here in the UK such as Parkwood Leisure, Nuffield Health, and Virgin Active.

WAM is a recent acquisition and product addition to the Fitronics portfolio concentrating on digitizing operational shift management within leisure and hospitality as well managing assets and planned maintenance programs.
If you are a member of a gym or have taken children to swimming lessons, it is highly likely you will have come across our software already.
Our core values are at the heart of everything we do:
Honest & Helpful – With every decision to support our team members & customers
Respectful – To be kind to everyone connected to our family
Relentless & Dedicated – A passion to never stop improving, growing and supporting ourselves
Responsible – For our actions, even though any bad times
Fun – With a smile during everything we do

We genuinely care about our customers, colleagues, partners, and stakeholders. Becoming a part of Fitronics is becoming part of the Fitronics family!
We’re a hardworking bunch but we love being sociable too. Whether that’s a natter whilst making a cuppa in our breakout area, taking part in a Taskmaster style challenge on Teams, or having a blast at one of our quarterly social evenings. We are real mix of personalities, from a wide range of backgrounds, with a smorgasbord of hobbies and interests and we love our differences so whoever you are you will be welcomed into our family with open arms.
