Doing things differently, doing things better
"You don't improve quality by cutting costs. But you cut costs by improving quality." This quote from our founder Karl Albrecht has had a decisive influence on us and our way of working in IT. In order to secure the market position as the inventor of the discount principle, efficiency and high quality standards at all levels of the company – from the branch to the IT department – are elementary. Our colleagues in testing and quality assurance (QA) make a significant contribution to this.
Quality is not a goal, but a process
As one of the company's principles, great importance is attached to high-quality products at the best prices. This principle applies equally to IT solutions. Our Test and Quality Assurance Specialists help to ensure that IT solutions meet the highest quality standards. They analyze, develop, and implement testing standards and procedures to ensure that products work reliably and that agile product teams can achieve even higher quality with each iteration and release. In doing so, they also like to think outside the box in order to look at the products to be tested in the overall context of all the software involved.
Influencing the success of ALDI SÜD
With perfection as our personal standard, our Test & Quality Assurance Specialists contribute to ALDI SÜD’s ability to serve the market with the highest level of quality. Only in this way can we ensure long-term success as a retailer and seize new digital opportunities. Our team has also plenty of opportunities to develop and lead within and beyond their own area of expertise, both personally and professionally.
ENSURING RELIABILITY IN MAJOR PROJECTS
We can always count on our team. And that’s the way it should be. After all, these are large-scale projects that impact the lives of many people: Our customers and colleagues in more than 7,300 stores across 11 countries rely on us to ensure that our IT solutions are thoroughly tested and work reliably. This is only possible if our processes comply with a standardised test strategy and the applicable standards.
SUCCESS AS A TEAM EFFORT
Our Test & Quality Assurance Specialists coordinate all end-to-end testing activities and work in a cross-functional, service-specific team with international colleagues from specialist departments. This involves liaising with developers and external partners to continually find solutions and improve the product.
