Position – Test Automation Engineer with Payments

Location – Charlotte, NC. Onsite. Hybrid. (3 days a week) Local candidates only

Experience: 8 to 10 Years

 

In-person interview mandatory

Need Local candidates only

 

About the Role

We’re looking for a seasoned Test Automation Engineer with deep experience in banking and payments to drive quality engineering across high‑throughput payment flows (e.g., Wires/SWIFT, FedNow, Chips, ISO 20022, ACH/NACHA, RTP). You’ll design robust automation frameworks, expand test coverage across APIs/services/UI, and embed quality into CI/CD for mission‑critical systems that demand security, resiliency, and regulatory compliance.

 

What You’ll Do

• Build & Evolve Automation Frameworks
• Design and maintain scalable, modular UI/API/service-level/Database automation frameworks (preferably in Java/C#/TypeScript/Python) using tools like Selenium/WebDriver, Playwright, Cypress, RestAssured, Postman.
• Implement robust test data management, environment selectors, and parallel execution at scale; champion test stability (flaky test reduction).
• Quality in CI/CD
• Integrate test suites into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps/Jenkins/GitLab CI) with gating policies, test dashboards, and quality thresholds (code coverage, pass rates, performance baselines).
• Shift-left: PR-level unit/contract tests; shift-right: synthetic monitoring and observability validations post-deploy.
• Payments Domain Validation
• Author automation for end-to-end payment journeys: initiation → validation → routing → posting → notifications → reconciliation.
• Validate file and real-time rails: Wires/SWIFT (MT/MX, ISO 20022), RTP, FedNow, Chips.
• Verify message schemas (e.g., ISO 20022 pain.001/pacs.008/camt), and SWIFT MX mapping; ensure idempotency, FX/fees/tax, cut-offs, holidays, and retries.
• Non-Functional & Resilience Testing
• Build automation for performance, soak, and resilience (throughput/latency/error budgets, circuit breakers, back-pressure).
• Execute chaos/failover/dr testing: timeouts, downstream unavailability, duplicate submissions, replay protection.

 

Required Qualifications

 

• 7–10+ years in test automation with 5+ years in banking/payments platforms.
• Strong in one or more: Java, C#, Python, or TypeScript; hands‑on with Selenium/Playwright/Cypress and API testing (RestAssured/Postman).
• Experience with message validation (JSON, XML, ISO 20022 schemas), file-based and real-time processing, asynchronous and event-driven systems (Kafka/RabbitMQ).
• Solid grasp of CI/CD (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, Jenkins), Git, Docker/K8s, environment variables/secrets, and test parallelization.
• Proven capability with SQL and at least one NoSQL (e.g., Mongo); experience setting up synthetic test data and masking strategies.
• Familiarity with observability (Grafana, Splunk) to correlate test runs with system telemetry.
• Understanding of SWIFT/ISO 20022, FedNow principles, fraud and risk controls, and secure coding/testing practices.

 

Nice-to-Have

• Contract testing with schema-first approaches (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI).
• Domain exposure to reconciliations, liquidity, sanctions screening (OFAC), AML, and fraud signals/decisioning.
