QA Engineer
Ref: JO-2602-359171
- South Africa, Cape Town
- Quality Assurance and Testing, Technology
- IT
- 50 - 249 Employees
- Environment: Hybrid
- Contract Type: Permanent
- Starts: ASAP
Automation is great – but some of us know that a sharp eye and a methodical mind will catch things no script ever will. We’re looking for a senior tester who takes genuine pride in breaking things properly, documents it beautifully, and occasionally lets a bit of code do the boring bits. If you’ve tested financial systems and you know the difference between a NAV calculation and a normal working day, we’d love to hear from you.
What you’ll need:
- 5+ years in software QA, with solid senior-level testing experience
- Proven strength in manual testing – test plans, cases, execution and defect management
- API testing experience (REST/SOAP) using tools like Postman or similar
- Automation exposure – Selenium, Cypress, or equivalent frameworks
- Cloud platform familiarity – AWS, Azure, or GCP
- Experience working in Agile or Scrum delivery teams
- Strong analytical thinking with meticulous attention to detail
- Clear communicator – able to log, explain and escalate defects without the drama
Bonus points if you bring
- Background in private wealth, investments, or asset management
- Familiarity with financial products – portfolios, instruments, or transactions
- ISTQB certification or similar QA qualification
This is a fintech environment that moves fast and takes quality seriously – the right person will be equally comfortable in a test case as they are in a conversation about investment workflows. If that’s you, we want to talk.
