We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) to join our team in the Pune office. This role is critical in ensuring the reliability, security, and high performance of our cutting-edge Open Banking systems through both functional and non-functional testing.
This is an excellent opportunity for a mid to senior-level SDET to immediately contribute to a growing platform while benefiting from mentorship and collaboration with our experienced SDET team.
You will be expected to leverage extensive coding and quality assurance expertise to elevate our testing standards, drive automation maturity, and act as a quality advocate across the engineering lifecycle.
As an SDET, you will take ownership of quality initiatives, including:
Design and Architect Automation: Lead the maintenance, adaptation, and significant contributions to our in-house, scalable automation frameworks and testing infrastructure for complex Open Banking solutions.
Quality Leadership: Collaborate closely with product, development, and DevOps stakeholders to translate complex functional and non-functional requirements into comprehensive, robust test plans and strategies.
Establish Quality Gates: Define, champion, and enforce quality guidelines and best practices throughout the entire Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) to ensure quality is built in, not tested on.
Execution and Analysis: Execute meticulous analysis of test results (functional, performance, security), proactively identifying root causes, and collaborating with development teams to drive swift resolution and preventative measures.
Continuous Improvement: Monitor and report on key quality and performance metrics (e.g., test coverage, defect leakage), advocating for continuous process and tool improvements, including CI/CD pipeline integration.
Mentorship and Self-Development: Take initiative in continuous self-learning to stay ahead of industry trends and share knowledge, potentially mentoring junior team members as the team grows.
Experience: At least 4+ years of dedicated experience as an Automation Engineer or SDET with a proven track record of designing, building, and maintaining scalable and reliable test automation frameworks in a production environment.
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
Technical Proficiency: Strong programming expertise in core languages such as Javascript, Typescript, and Python.
Automation Frameworks: Deep practical experience with modern automated testing tools and frameworks (e.g., WebdriverIO, Playwright, Selenium, or similar) for API and UI testing.
Testing Passion: A genuine passion for quality engineering, a proactive, independent work ethic, and the ability to champion new tools and testing methodologies.
Observability & Monitoring: Hands-on experience with monitoring and logging tools like Grafana and Kibana for analyzing system behavior and diagnosing performance issues.
Performance Engineering: Practical experience with Performance Testing tools and strategies.
DevOps Integration: Experience integrating testing into Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines, preferably using tools like Jenkins or similar.
Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with Open Banking, FinTech, or highly regulated financial systems is a significant advantage.
