UKEESS Software House is looking for a Middle General QA Engineer (with automation on Java) to join our team for a full-time position (remotely in Ukraine or in Lviv’s office).
About the Customer and the Project:
Our customer is the world’s largest family history and consumer genetics company.
With more than 30+ billion digitized global historical records, 100 million family trees, and 18 million people in a growing DNA database, our client helps customers discover their family stories and gain a new level of understanding about their lives.

Our team is developing the main landing page users see after logging in. This page’s primary purpose is to provide a personalized preview of the platform’s features related to DNA exploration and family history. Ensuring optimal performance and stability is crucial with hundreds of thousands of visits daily.
The page is designed using a widget-based, progressive loading architecture, meaning content loads as users scroll, similar to Facebook or Twitter feeds. Each widget is displayed based on specific conditions, such as subscription level, A/B test variants, DNA test completion, and more. We are continuously adding new widgets and maintaining existing ones, so this role involves both manual testing and test automation where applicable.
