Job Summary
Serve as a senior quality engineer responsible for designing automating and executing robust test solutions for enterprise applications using Java Selenium RestAssured and TestNG. Drive high reliability of digital products in a hybrid work model ensuring secure and seamless user journeys with added advantage if experienced in cards and payments domain.
Responsibilities
- Design comprehensive test strategies that cover functional regression integration compatibility and end to end flows for complex enterprise applications built on Java technology stack using a hybrid work arrangement
- Develop scalable and maintainable automated test frameworks using Selenium and TestNG that enable rapid feedback and support continuous integration pipelines for high quality releases
- Implement robust RestAssured based API automation suites that validate request and response structures status codes and business rules for internal and external services
- Execute detailed manual and automated test scenarios that cover happy path boundary negative and exploratory cases while carefully documenting steps data and observed outcomes
- Analyze test results and defect patterns to identify systemic quality gaps then collaborate with engineers to propose practical improvements in code test data and environment configuration
- Collaborate closely with product owners business analysts and developers to refine acceptance criteria clarify edge cases and ensure that stories and features are fully testable before development starts
- Create and maintain high quality test data and environment configurations that mirror production scenarios ensuring reliable reproducibility of issues without disrupting other project teams
- Contribute to performance and reliability checks by designing lightweight scripts or scenarios that uncover latency bottlenecks timeouts and resource constraints in critical business workflows
- Coordinate with DevOps or platform teams to integrate automated tests into build pipelines so that quality gates prevent defective code from reaching higher environments or customers
- Document clear reproducible defect reports with relevant logs screenshots and execution context so that engineers can quickly isolate root causes and deliver effective fixes
- Mentor junior quality engineers by reviewing their test designs automation code and defect reports while promoting consistent engineering standards and continuous learning practices
- Partner with stakeholders from cards and payments or related financial services when applicable to validate domain specific rules such as transaction flows authorization checks and settlement conditions
