Senior Quality Engineer

We are looking for a passionate and detail-oriented Software Engineer in Quality Assurance (Automation) to join our engineering team. In this role, you will be at the forefront of building and scaling our test automation ecosystem — owning quality end-to-end, from test design to continuous delivery pipelines. You'll work closely with developers, product managers, and DevOps to ensure our products are robust, reliable, and release-ready at all times. What You'll Do • Design, build & maintain scalable automation frameworks using Selenium WebDriver, Cucumber, and TestNG. • Own test strategy for assigned squads — defining scope, coverage, and risk from requirements through production. • Write BDD feature files (Gherkin) to enable collaboration between QA, Dev, and Product stakeholders. • Implement TDD practices — writing tests before or alongside code to drive quality in development cycles. • Integrate automated suites into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar) for continuous feedback. • Perform API testing and validate end-to-end user journeys across web and services. • Identify, document & triage defects with clear reproduction steps, severity classification, and root-cause analysis. • Mentor junior QA engineers and champion quality best practices across the engineering org. • Continuously evaluate test health, flakiness, and coverage gaps — iterating to keep automation suite trustworthy. What We're Looking For Must-Have Skills • 3+ years of hands-on experience in QA automation in a product engineering environment. • Strong proficiency with Selenium WebDriver — page object model, explicit waits, cross-browser testing. • Solid experience with Cucumber (BDD) — writing and maintaining feature files, step definitions, and hooks. • Hands-on with TestNG — test configuration, data providers, listeners, parallel execution, and reporting. • Working knowledge of TDD principles and integrating tests into agile development workflows. • Proficiency in at least one programming language — Java or Python preferred. • Experience with CI/CD integration and running tests in automated pipelines. • Strong analytical thinking with an eye for edge cases, boundary conditions, and failure modes. • Excellent communication skills — ability to clearly articulate test findings to technical and non-technical audiences. Nice to Have • Domain knowledge in Payments — understanding of payment flows, gateways, settlement, reconciliation, or fraud systems. • Experience testing APIs with tools like Postman, RestAssured, or similar. • Familiarity with performance / load testing tools (JMeter, Gatling, k6). • Exposure to cloud testing environments (Sauce Labs, BrowserStack, AWS Device Farm). • Knowledge of security testing basics relevant to financial or transactional systems. • Experience with mobile automation (Appium or similar). The Mindset We Value Beyond technical skills, we hire for how you think and operate: • Ownership mindset — you treat quality as your personal responsibility, not a sign-off gate. You proactively identify risks, flag issues early, and see bugs as a systemic problem to solve. • Shift-left thinking — you involve yourself in requirements and design discussions, not just execution phase. • Bias for automation — if something is tested manually more than twice, you ask how to automate it. • Collaborative — you work with developers as partners, not adversaries, and build shared ownership of quality. • Continuous improvement — you regularly revisit your frameworks and practices, improving coverage, speed, and reliability.
