Quality Engineer - Banking Mobile (iOS/Android) & Automation Testing

• End-to-End Digital Onboarding & KYC Testing : Design and extensively execute complex testing for the end-to-end customer digital onboarding lifecycle. This includes validating biometric identity verification (liveness checks, facial matching), optical character recognition (OCR) for document scanning (driver's licenses, passports), third-party fraud/AML screening integrations, and seamless user registration states.

• Collaborate Early & Often: Partner with Product Owners and Developers during sprint planning and backlog refinement to define clear acceptance criteria (BDD/TDD) and identify potential edge cases.
• Build & Scale Automation: Design, write, and maintain robust automated test suites across the application stack (UI, API, and database layers).
• Perform Smart Manual Testing: Conduct strategic exploratory and UX testing for complex user journeys and scenarios that automated scripts cannot cover.
• Integrate with CI/CD : Maintain and optimize automated test runs within our continuous integration and delivery pipeline to ensure immediate feedback loops.
• Track & Troubleshoot : Identify, isolate, and document bugs clearly. Work side-by-side with developers to debug issues and verify fixes.
• Champion Quality Culture : Drive a team-wide mentality that quality is everyone's responsibility, actively sharing best practices for cleaner code and better testing.
