Who we are

idataraya is a Malaysian software company. We design, build and then operate the systems our clients run their organisations on, across payments, healthcare, retail, property and the public sector.

The engineers who design and build a system are the ones who keep it running afterwards. That is the shape of the whole company, and it is why the roles here look the way they do.

The team

Enterprise engineering. Discovery, architecture, delivery and run for the systems clients operate on.

About the role

You build the regression suites that let us release every two to four weeks without holding our breath. A suite has to be trustworthy, because a flaky one gets ignored.

What you will do

  • Build and maintain automated regression coverage for live systems.
  • Wire the suites into the release pipeline and keep them fast.
  • Chase down flakiness rather than retrying around it.
  • Decide with the team what is worth automating and what is not.

What you will bring

  • Experience building automation that outlived the sprint it was written in.
  • A programming language you are genuinely comfortable in.
  • Understanding of why tests become flaky and how to fix the cause.
  • Opinions about where to put coverage that you can defend.

What we offer

  • Ownership of real systems from the first architecture session through to live operation, rather than a slice of someone else's design.
  • Direct contact with the people using what you build, with no account layer in between.
  • Work delivered in two to four week increments, demonstrated and accepted before the next one starts.
  • More than twenty production engines underneath the client systems, so the same problem is rarely solved twice.

We consider every applicant on what they have built and how they work. Tell us about your experience in your own words, and we will come back to you either way.
