Senior QA Engineer Automation

Company Description

SaveIN is an embedded finance platform that enables merchants to offer instant, affordable installment-based payment plans to their customers. The platform helps customers access products, services, and experiences while splitting their bills into easy, transparent installments. Payment plans are designed to be no-cost or low-cost, making financing more accessible and customer-friendly. SaveIN collaborates closely with merchants to integrate these payment options into their offerings, supporting business growth and better customer experiences.

About the Role

SaveIN is looking for a Senior QA Engineer with a strong automation focus to help us scale test coverage across our lending and payments platform. You'll work closely with engineering, product, and compliance teams to ensure the reliability, security, and correctness of systems that handle real money movement and sensitive customer data.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain automated test suites (API, UI, and regression) integrated into CI/CD pipelines
• Own test strategy for critical customer journeys — onboarding, credit decisioning, disbursement, repayment/collections
• Build and maintain automation frameworks for testing integrations with bank partners (HDFC, ICICI, IDFC First) and bureau/KYC providers
• Identify gaps in test coverage and proactively build automated regression suites to reduce manual QA dependency
• Collaborate with developers to shift testing left — embedding test gates into CI/CD alongside SAST/security checks
• Perform API contract testing, load/performance testing, and data validation for financial transactions
• Write clear, reproducible bug reports and work with engineering to drive root-cause fixes
• Contribute to test data management strategy, especially around PII/DPDP-compliant sandbox data
• Mentor junior QA engineers and help formalize QA processes, test documentation, and release sign-off criteria
• Participate in production incident reviews to identify testing gaps that could have caught issues earlier

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in QA/SDET roles with a strong hands-on automation focus
• Proficiency with automation frameworks (Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, or similar) and API testing tools (Postman, RestAssured, Karate)
• Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or Jenkins) and integrating automated tests into them
• Working knowledge of SQL for data validation and backend testing
• Experience testing REST APIs, webhooks, and third-party integrations
• Basic scripting ability (Java/Python/JavaScript) for writing and maintaining test scripts
• Understanding of the software testing lifecycle — test planning, traceability, regression, exploratory testing
• Prior experience in fintech, banking, or lending products is a strong plus (understanding of KYC, credit underwriting, or payment flows)
• Familiarity with performance testing tools (JMeter, k6) is a plus
• Exposure to security testing basics (OWASP Top 10) is a plus, given the regulated environment

Nice to Have

• Experience testing systems with multiple bank/NBFC integrations
• Familiarity with compliance-driven QA (audit trails, RBI/data protection considerations)
• Interest in AI-assisted testing tools/agentic QA workflows (this is a growing focus area for our team)

What You'll Work With

• Azure cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines with security gates, multiple bank/NBFC partner integrations, and a fast-moving product roadmap in a regulated BNPL/lending environment.
