About Us
Wealth Wizards is a market-leading financial advice technology provider. Our purpose is to make financial advice and guidance affordable and accessible to all. Our platform enables customers to automate regulated journeys to engage, advise and execute on everyday financial planning decisions.
After being acquired by Royal London in 2020, we have doubled down on our mission to become a SaaS provider, bringing exciting new opportunities and potential. Royal London has over £159 billion assets under management and is very supportive of our mission. We have a large market to grow into and having high quality products is key!
About the Role
At Wealth Wizards, Quality Engineering is an enablement team with a mission: To deliver a scalable quality strategy that enables us to automate financial advice and guidance safely and at pace.

- <5 minute average test suite run time
- <5% flakiness across all tests

We value balancing risk mitigation with pace, knowing you can't always have both. Due to the highly regulated industry we operate in, we will always have a bias towards risk mitigation as the impacts to end users of incorrect advice or guidance can carry dire consequences.
