Senior QE Engineer

About the role:

The Senior QE Engineer is responsible for defining and driving quality assurance across the product area they are primarily aligned to. They lead integration testing and automation efforts, establish best quality practices, and work closely with developers, product owners, and other stakeholders to enhance the reliability and scalability of our payment platform. They identify and prevent issues early in the development process, and ensure quality is embedded throughout the delivery lifecycle.

What you’ll be doing:

• Drive the test strategy for your product area, owning both functional and non-functional quality outcomes.

• Design, build, and maintain automated test suites (Robot Framework, Python, and other languages) integrated into our CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI).

• Own the integration testing layer end-to-end. From test design through execution, defect resolution, and coverage improvement.

• Test REST APIs thoroughly: contract validation, error paths, authentication and authorisation boundaries, schema compliance, and performance edge cases.

• Monitor and analyse automated test results, ensuring timely feedback to development teams and minimising false positives.

• Own defect reporting and management, tracking issues through to resolution and verifying fixes.

• Act as the quality point of contact for your area, managing test risk and maintaining recovery plans for release-critical scenarios.

• Lead root cause analysis on defect escapes and drive changes to prevent recurrence.

• Identify opportunities to remove waste, improve shift-left practices, and continuously evolve tools and testing approaches.

• Coach developers and junior QE engineers in testing techniques and quality mindset.

• Participate in hiring and onboarding to build a strong QA community at Enfuce.

• Represent Enfuce QA to internal stakeholders and customers when needed.

What you’ll bring:

• Proficient in API testing - REST, contract validation, error states, and auth boundaries.

• Experienced in test automation using Robot Framework and Python, building maintainable suites a team can own and extend.

• Competent in at least one additional language or framework (e.g. Java/REST Assured, TypeScript/Playwright).

• Familiar with integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines (we use GitLab CI).

• Strong analytical mindset with a proactive approach to risk detection and coverage gaps.

• Confident communicator with both technical teams and customers.

• Experienced documenting test plans, defect reports, and quality trends clearly.

• Passionate about quality: both learning and sharing QA knowledge.

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities.

• Performance testing tools (k6/JavaScript, Gatling, JMeter).

Nice to have:

• Experience in payments, card issuing, acquiring, or payment processing. You understand authorisation, clearing, settlement, and card lifecycle flows.

• Experience with PCI-DSS scoped environments.

• Consumer-driven contract testing (Pact or similar).

• Cloud or container environments (AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes).

• We embrace the use of AI so some familiarity with using it either prompt or code driven.
