About the Opportunity

We are seeking an Automation QA Engineer to join our key client within the financial services sector.

  • Familiarity with load/performance testing
  • Exposure to cloud environments (Azure, AWS)
  • Agile methodology experience (Scrum/Kanban)
  • Understanding of various testing types across the testing pyramid

Qualifications

  • ISTQB Foundation in Software Testing (or equivalent certification)
  • Relevant IT degree or equivalent practical experience

Key Responsibilities

You'll develop and maintain automation frameworks, integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines, design and execute manual test cases where appropriate, and contribute to overall test strategies. The role involves defect management, maintaining test documentation, and participating actively in Agile ceremonies.

This is an excellent opportunity for a QA professional who is passionate about automation but understands the strategic value of comprehensive testing approaches in delivering exceptional software quality.
