Strong Middle / Senior Automation Test Engineer (Python), JR202

Requirements

• 4+ years of software quality assurance experience
• Strong coding skills in Python, with the judgment to recognize test code that needs work and the skill to improve it
• Experience designing automated test frameworks, not just writing tests inside someone else's framework
• Proven experience testing RESTful web services and web applications in a cloud environment (Azure preferred)
• Comfort working across the test pyramid - unit, integration, and end-to-end - and a clear opinion on where each layer earns its keep
• Comfort reasoning about numerical correctness - tolerances, golden masters, and regression of calculated outputs, not just HTTP 200s
• Working knowledge of CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or similar) and a point of view on what belongs in pre-merge vs. nightly vs. release gates
• Awareness of security and compliance considerations in financial software - authorization testing, dependency scanning, and careful handling of sensitive data in test environments
• A habit of measuring quality - escape rate, flake rate, coverage trends - and using those numbers to drive decisions
• Familiarity with Selenium WebDriver, Postman, or equivalent tools (BDD/Gherkin/Cucumber is a plus)
• Genuine curiosity about AI-assisted development tools and a track record (or strong desire) to apply them to QA work
• Excellent communication - you'll push back on developers, ask hard questions in grooming, and explain quality tradeoffs to business stakeholders
• A quality mindset that goes beyond test execution - you care about where a bug should have been caught, not just that it was caught
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Business, or related discipline
• Intermediate high level of English
