Senior Automation QA Engineer
About Incard
Incard’s mission is to build the financial operating system for entrepreneurs.
We are focused on creating a system where business banking, financial tools, and application logic are coordinated into a single control layer.
Through the app store, entrepreneurs and developers can build industry-specific functionality as their business evolves.
Who We’re Looking For
We’re looking for a Senior Automation QA Engineer to own and scale Incard’s automated quality assurance strategy.
You’ll be responsible for designing and implementing robust, reliable, and scalable QA automation across backend, frontend, mobile, and integrations. This role is critical in ensuring Incard can ship fast without compromising correctness, especially in a regulated fintech environment.
This role is ideal for someone who sees QA as engineering, not validation and who enjoys building frameworks, tooling, and quality systems that teams trust.
What You’ll Do
Own QA Automation End-to-End
Design, build, and maintain Incard’s automation testing strategy
Own test coverage across backend APIs, frontend, mobile, and integrations
Treat test automation as first-class infrastructure
Automation Frameworks & Tooling
Build and maintain automated test frameworks for:
API and backend services
Web applications
Mobile applications
Integrations with external providers (banks, PSPs, partners)
Ensure tests are reliable, fast, maintainable, and easy to extend
CI/CD & Release Quality
Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines
Enforce quality gates before releases
Reduce regressions and production incidents through automation
Quality Strategy & Coverage
Define test strategies across unit, integration, E2E, and regression testing
Identify high-risk areas and design automation around critical flows
Ensure strong coverage for money movement, cards, analytics, and workflows
Collaboration & Enablement
Work closely with Backend, Frontend, Mobile, and Product teams
Help engineers write testable code and improve testability
Participate in design reviews to anticipate edge cases and failure modes
Reliability & Continuous Improvement
Monitor flaky tests and improve reliability
Continuously improve test execution speed and signal quality
Contribute to post-incident analysis with a quality lens
What We’re Looking For
5+ years of experience in QA Automation or Software Engineering in Test
Strong experience building automation frameworks from scratch
Solid understanding of API testing, integration testing, and E2E testing
Experience testing distributed systems and asynchronous workflows
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and automated release processes
Strong understanding of software quality principles and risk-based testing
Clear communicator who collaborates effectively with engineering teams
Nice to Have
Experience testing fintech, payments, or other regulated systems
Experience with mobile automation (iOS / Android)
Familiarity with performance or load testing
Experience testing event-driven or workflow-based systems
Mindset We Look For
Quality-as-a-product mindset — you build systems, not checklists
Obsession with correctness, reliability, and trust
Pragmatic engineer — strong opinions, loosely held
Low ego, highly collaborative, and proactive
Comfortable challenging assumptions when quality is at risk
Startup DNA — ownership, speed, and accountability
Benefits:
Competitive cash-based compensation
Incard stock options
25 days of paid time off per year, plus bank holidays and your birthday off
Global health insurance and unlimited paid sick leave
