Senior Quality Assurance Automation Engineer

We are currently seeking a seasoned QA engineer with years of experience working with complex systems from the perspective of quality assurance to join us.

The emphasis in this role is not to drive business features forward, but to ensure that the quality of implementation is high for those features. This role requires close collaboration with both business partners and developers. You will be embedded in the team, and your role will encompass all aspects of quality assurance, from code-level reviews to ensuring business requirements are sound. Primarily, you will work closely with the product owners to ensure acceptance criteria for stories are encoded in Gherkin.

You will be working with a modern stack based on Golang, with infrastructure built on Google Cloud Platform. Customers will be served from multiple regions using a global load balancer to ensure high availability, fault tolerance, and low latency.

Our development methodology is agile, using Behavior Driven Development. We use techniques from Domain Driven Design to carve out our micro-services.

We aim to work towards discrete and frequent releases using feature-branches, feature toggling, and continuous deployment.

Common principles such as API First, Top-Down Development, and micro-services are common lingo in our engineering teams.

How You Will Make an Impact:

• Analyze complex business requirements with a QA perspective and provide constructive feedback to ensure testability and clarity.
• Proactively collaborate with product managers, developers, and other stakeholders to identify requirement gaps and improve quality outcomes early in the SDLC.
• Perform exploratory testing during planning and early development phases to uncover edge cases and refine acceptance criteria.
  Author comprehensive test plans and clearly structured test cases using Gherkin syntax to support Behavior Driven Development (BDD).
• Develop and maintain automated acceptance tests within a modern test automation framework (preferably Playwright).
• Contribute to building internal QA documentation, including user guides and testing procedures.
• Investigate and support resolution of production issues by identifying root causes and contributing regression test cases.
• Partner with developers to identify and define unit and integration test coverage, ensuring robust test pyramids.
• While the focus is on automation, contribute to manual testing efforts as needed during exploratory or pre-release testing.

Skills you will have fine-tuned:

• Proven experience with Behavior Driven Development (BDD); deep familiarity with Cucumber and Gherkin is essential.
• Hands-on experience with end-to-end automation frameworks such as Playwright (preferred), Selenium, Cypress, or similar.
• Proficient in Typescript and comfortable contributing to automated test suites within a modern CI/CD pipeline.
• Deep understanding of software testing methodologies, test lifecycle management, and SDLC best practices.
• Experience with distributed systems and the challenges of testing them effectively.
• Strong debugging, problem-solving, and analytical skills to identify test failures and system defects quickly.
• Bonus: Familiarity with payment systems, transactional workflows, or payment gateway integration.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills for documenting test strategies and collaborating across teams.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, agile environment with multiple priorities and stakeholders.
  Self-starter with a solution-oriented mindset and a passion for improving software quality.
• Able to work effectively in a remote-first, globally distributed team environment.

What's in it for you:

• We offer you the opportunity to be an innovator, challenge the status quo, and redefine the payments category
• Competitive salary in a fast-growing start-up
• Rewards & Recognition system
• Opportunity for personal and professional growth in a dynamic industry
• Work from anywhere in the world; we're a fully distributed company, and we provide the tools, culture, and support to make your work setup work for you
• Joining a scaling company that is growing and an opportunity to have great impact
• Occasional travel to Europe (UK, Copenhagen, Bulgaria)
