Associate Test Engineer

About Counter
Counter is a technology consultancy within the Northcoders Group. We partner with organisations to build high-performing engineering teams that combine experienced technical leadership with emerging and experienced talent, helping clients accelerate delivery while developing long-term engineering capability.

Our teams are led by experienced Counter Tech Leads, who work closely with our clients to provide technical leadership, mentor engineers and embed best practices throughout each engagement. We build mixed-experience engineering teams, bringing together early-career, mid-level and experienced engineers to create collaborative, high-performing teams. This enables individuals to learn from one another, develop their skills and deliver meaningful outcomes together, while ensuring our clients benefit from the right blend of experience.

Your initial employment will be with Northcoders Group on a flexible fixed-term contract for the duration of the engagement. One of the things that makes Counter different from many consultancies is that, where there is mutual interest, individuals may have the opportunity to transition into a permanent role with the client at the end of the project, providing an additional pathway to build a long-term career.

Counter has an established partnership with Manchester Airport Group, supporting the organisation across a number of technology initiatives. As our relationship continues to grow, we're expanding our team to support the next phase of Manchester Airport Group's technology transformation.

You'll join a dedicated Counter engineering team working alongside experienced technical professionals on a live client engagement. This is an opportunity to contribute to meaningful projects, collaborate with engineers across a range of experience levels and continue developing your technical and professional skills within a supportive consultancy environment.
