About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Actively partner with Business, Architecture, Product, Design, and Software Engineering teams to align testing activities with business acceptance criteria and architectural realities.
Participate in and help facilitate mandatory "Cross-Functional Journey Review & Sign-Off" ceremonies to attest that all business-critical paths, edge cases, and transitional states are documented and tested.
Take a proactive, self-driven approach to identifying gaps in test coverage. Drive E2E quality initiatives, ensuring the testing strategy shifts left and adheres to the Testing Pyramid.
Analyze business requirements to identify and map end-to-end user journeys (e.g., the complete Loan Origination flow) from the WebUI, through the Orchestration layer, down to backend dependencies.
Design, build, and refactor scalable automated tests for both UI and API-based E2E scenarios using Playwright. Create reusable libraries to ensure zero code duplication.
Validate system interoperability, data flows, and API contracts between modern microservices and legacy systems.
Integrate and maintain automated test suites within CI/CD pipelines (e.g., CloudBuild) to run on demand against selected cloud platforms (LambdaTest).
Validate complex data transformations (e.g., DB2 to PostgreSQL migrations). Work alongside Test Data Management (TDM) strategies to utilize masked, synthetic data for realistic test scenarios without exposing PII.
Collaborate tightly with Stream-Aligned Teams (in-sprint testers) to transfer knowledge, review execution results, and prioritize testing based on risk and business impact.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Strong programming background in Java and experience with build management tools (Gradle, Maven).
Expert-level knowledge of UI automation (Playwright) and API testing (Playwright, Postman, Hoppscotch). Experience with BDD frameworks (Cucumber/Gherkin).
Deep understanding of how processes work end-to-end from both a UI and backend perspective. Experience testing Orchestration layers (GraphQL) and microservices.
Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (GCP) and CI/CD version control (GitHub, CloudBuild).
Strong understanding of functional, integration, E2E, and regression testing. Experience executing tests across multiple environments (SIT, UAT, PreProd).
Experience in Financial Services, specifically understanding the Loan Lifecycle (Originations and Receivables), if you have worked with FiServ banking services, that is a big plus (DNA and Creative Digital).
Knowledge of API contract validation methodologies to ensure compatibility between front-end clients and the orchestration layer.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to translate highly technical backend processes to product owners and business stakeholders.
Strong sense of ownership, accountability, and proactiveness. Ability to work independently, drive initiatives, and handle shifting priorities in a fast-paced Agile/Kanban/SAFe environment.
Exceptional debugging and analytical skills with a strong user-centric mindset.
Familiarity with enterprise testing and test management tools (Jira, Xray, Confluence).
Experience with cloud execution grids (LambdaTest).
Knowledge of Contract Testing tools (PACTFlow) and Test Data Management tools (Tonic.ai, Masking Engines).
Familiarity with automotive finance platforms such as Alfa Systems and RouteOne.
Extra plus is knowledgeable on FiServ products.
