The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, comfortable working with backend systems and hardware, and experienced in validating payments and POS workflows in web-based environments.
Overview
  • Design and execute manual and automated test cases for payment APIs, UI flows, and EMV hardware interactions.
  • Perform functional, regression, and device-level testing of payment workflows (card present/card not present).
  • Validate RESTful APIs using Postman, including auth flows, error handling, and integration behaviors.
  • Participate in L3 certification process testing with payment partners and contribute to certification documentation.
  • Collaborate closely with QA, Product, and Engineering to define clear test plans, acceptance criteria, and edge cases.
  • Use browser dev tools to inspect request/response payloads; investigate logs and backend activity.
  • Support test automation using Playwright, Appium, and backend verification tools.
  • Assist in test data setup and backend verification using MongoDB, DynamoDB, and AWS tools.
  • Document defects clearly in JIRA and contribute to test coverage during sprints and releases.
  • Participate in Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, refinement, and reviews.

What we're looking for:
  • 3-5 years of QA experience in web or enterprise platforms, with a focus on payments or integrations.
  • Strong experience testing payment systems, including EMV terminal workflows and cloud-to-device communication.
  • Hands-on with Postman for API validation; familiarity with Swagger/OpenAPI specs.
  • Experience testing web UI across browsers, responsive layouts, and frontend/backend coordination.
  • Familiarity with basic backend testing using C# (xUnit, Moq) or ability to read/debug service code.
  • Understanding of EMV L3 certification processes and best practices.
  • EMV payment terminal certification experience is a strong plus.
  • Comfort working in hybrid environments involving cloud services and on-site devices.
  • Basic knowledge of MongoDB, DynamoDB, or similar databases.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and Agile/Scrum development processes.
  • Strong documentation, collaboration, and bug reporting skills.

Bonus Experience
  • Automation experience with Playwright, Appium, or similar tools.
  • Experience with AWS-based environments, test containers, or device farms.
  • Previous QA experience in POS, payment gateway, or fintech domains.
  • Familiarity with terminal simulators, payment SDKs, or mock acquirer environments.
  • Experience testing offline/online fallback flows or device network behavior.
