  • Author test strategy across unit, integration, API, E2E, performance and security tiers
  • Delegate execution to two TAEs while retaining strategic ownership
  • Facilitate UAT sessions with non-technical bank compliance staff
  • Guide defect triage discussions with senior engineers
Requirements
  • 7+ years of experience in QA engineering with a proven track record defining testing strategy from scratch on migration or modernization projects

  • Familiarity with pdfplumber, PyMuPDF or equivalent for PDF/document regression testing of DevExpress report definitions
  • Expertise in multi-tenant data isolation testing including RLS policy validation and cross-institution leakage scenarios
  • Skills in UAT planning and facilitation with non-technical end users under deadline pressure
  • Showcase of proven use of AI to facilitate testing such as test case generation and testing harnesses
  • English proficiency at B2 level or higher
Nice to have
  • Skills in load and performance testing using k6, JMeter or Gatling for filing-period spike scenario design
  • Knowledge of penetration test scoping and finding validation including OWASP Top 10 for APIs and SPAs
  • Familiarity with contract testing using Pact or equivalent and PostgreSQL query-level test assertions with RLS policy inspection
  • Understanding of accessibility testing using axe-core and WCAG 2.1 automated checks
