Job Summary
What we’re looking for:
We are looking for someone who can work effectively across engineering leadership, business and financial stakeholders, technology subject-matter experts, and controls-focused teams. This person should be comfortable partnering with developers building the system, accounting and SOX stakeholders defining control requirements, and other teams involved in integrations, releases, and audit readiness.
- The ideal candidate brings strong experience testingend-to-end financial system services, includingREST APIs, event-driven workflows, external integrations, and data integrations.
- They should be able to design tests that validate non-functional requirements as part of automated testing within CI/CD pipelines.
- They should demonstrate critical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to translate business, control, technical, and non-functional requirements into clear, executable test cases.
- They should be documentation-minded, able to produce evidence that stands up to external audit, and comfortable moving between engineering conversations and SOX/internal-controls discussions.
NOTE: This role requires someone who can communicate clearly, ask thoughtful questions, identify gaps or ambiguity, and help ensure the software solution is correct, controlled, traceable, and audit ready.
Â
What you’ll be doingÂ
- Design and execute functional, regression, integration, end-to-end, and non-functional (NFR) test plans across multi-step financial workflows and state transitions
- Validatecomplex financial computations, reconcile data across transactional and analytical layers, andwrite SQL queries against the system of record to verify correctness and consistency
- Translate SOX, internal-control, business, and technical requirements intoexecutable test cases in partnership with developers, accounting, and control stakeholders
- Test maker-checker workflows, role-based access boundaries, and segregation-of-duties controls, including negative cases, via API testing
- Test event-driven workflows across services, validating message delivery, processing order, idempotency, and failure handling
- Validate that audit events are generated for every controlled state change (UI, batch, API), captured with accurate content and timestamps in an append-only, immutable evidence store
- Test inbound data from third-party valuation/pricing systems and outbound payloads to systems of record for schema correctness, completeness, failure handling, and reconciliation
- Produce audit-ready artifacts, including test plans, results narratives, and evidence packages, that stand alone during external-auditor fieldwork without additional explanation
- Track defects through their full lifecycle, from identification through resolution, ensuring traceability and closure
- Design and maintain automated test suites, integrating repeatable test scenarios into CI/CD pipelines to validate functional and non-functional requirements on every release
- Generate and manage test data
- Review logs, query data, and troubleshoot issues across application, integration, and data layers
- Participate in sprint ceremonies, release readiness reviews, and production support triage as needed
- Help establish and improve QA processes, standards, and best practices.
Requirements/What You’ll Bring:
- 3+ years of QA/test engineering experience supporting backend financial, fintech, or regulated systems
- Proficiency in Python with hands-on experienceusing pytest for test automation
- Strong test automation skills with experience integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines (Playwright a plus)
- Strong SQL skills for non-trivial data validation, reconciliation, and control testing
- SOX or internal-controls testing experience, including segregation-of-duties, maker-checker workflows, and audit-reviewed evidence
- Experiencetesting REST APIs (Postman, REST-assured, or similar)
- Critical thinking and attention to detail, able to identify ambiguity, validate assumptions, and produce clear, complete, audit-ready documentation
- Effective communicator who moves fluidly between engineering, business/control stakeholders, and audit-facing discussions
Added bonus if you have (Preferred):Â
- Experience with Java services and testing within Java-based microservice environments
- Experience testing financial data for correctness, including calculations, reconciliations, balances, or valuation-related outputs
- Experience validating immutable or append-only audit data
- Experience with FastAPI backends and PostgreSQL systems of record
- Experience working in financial services, fintech, accounting-adjacent systems, or other highly regulated environments
- Knowledge of cloud services and deployment patterns in AWS
- Familiarity with Agile/Scrum delivery practices
