Enterprise Technology plays a critical part in shaping the future of mobility.

In this position... 

Ford Credit is seeking a highly driven, collaborative, and analyticalEnd-to-End (E2E) Test Engineer / SDETto join our Enterprise Testing team. This is a crucial role in which you will act as the technical lead between our UI clients, partner platforms, and our backend infrastructure, ensuring seamless integration and functionality across our complex lending platforms.

You must be a self-starter capable of mapping out and dissecting intricate processes, from the moment a dealer submits a loan application to the final backend data storage, all the way from inception to repayment, which includes multiple diverse systems until data flows to the data warehouse for reporting. 

If you are an exceptional communicator who can proactively drive quality initiatives, partner across architecture, product, and engineering teams, and figure out exactly how systems communicate under the hood, we want you on our team. 

What you'll do...

• Cross-Functional Partnership: Actively partner with Business, Architecture, Product, Design, and Software Engineering teams to align testing activities with business acceptance criteria and architectural realities.
• Journey Validation: Participate in and help facilitate mandatory "Cross-Functional Journey Review & Sign-Off" ceremonies to attest that all business-critical paths, edge cases, and transitional states are documented and tested.
• Drive Quality Initiatives: Take a proactive, self-driven approach to identifying gaps in test coverage. Drive E2E quality initiatives, ensuring the testing strategy shifts left and adheres to the Testing Pyramid.
• Full-Stack Analysis: Analyze business requirements to identify and map end-to-end user journeys (e.g., the complete Loan Origination flow) from the WebUI, through the Orchestration layer, down to backend dependencies.
• Test Automation: Design, build, and refactor scalable automated tests for both UI and API-based E2E scenarios using Playwright. Create reusable libraries to ensure zero code duplication.
• System Integration: Validate system interoperability, data flows, and API contracts between modern microservices and legacy systems.
• Pipeline Integration: Integrate and maintain automated test suites within CI/CD pipelines (e.g., CloudBuild) to run on demand against selected cloud platforms (LambdaTest).
• Data Migration & TDM: Validate complex data transformations (e.g., DB2 to PostgreSQL migrations). Work alongside Test Data Management (TDM) strategies to utilize masked, synthetic data for realistic test scenarios without exposing PII.
• Squad Collaboration: Collaborate tightly with Stream-Aligned Teams (in-sprint testers) to transfer knowledge, review execution results, and prioritize testing based on risk and business impact.

You'll have...

• Core Engineering: Strong programming background in Java and experience with build management tools (Gradle, Maven).
• Test Automation: Expert-level knowledge of UI automation (Playwright) and API testing (Playwright, Postman, Hoppscotch). Experience with BDD frameworks (Cucumber/Gherkin).
• System Architecture: Deep understanding of how processes work end-to-end from both a UI and backend perspective. Experience testing Orchestration layers (GraphQL) and microservices.
• Cloud & CI/CD: Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (GCP) and CI/CD version control (GitHub, CloudBuild).
• Testing Methodologies: Strong understanding of functional, integration, E2E, and regression testing. Experience executing tests across multiple environments (SIT, UAT, PreProd).
• FinTech Experience: Experience in Financial Services, specifically understanding the Loan Lifecycle (Originations and Receivables), if you have worked with FiServ banking services, that is a big plus (DNA and Creative Digital).
• Contract Testing: Knowledge of API contract validation methodologies to ensure compatibility between front-end clients and the orchestration layer.
• Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills; ability to translate highly technical backend processes to product owners and business stakeholders.
• Self-Driven: Strong sense of ownership, accountability, and proactiveness. Ability to work independently, drive initiatives, and handle shifting priorities in a fast-paced Agile/Kanban/SAFe environment.
• Problem Solving: Exceptional debugging and analytical skills with a strong user-centric mindset.

Even better, you may have...

• Familiarity with enterprise testing and test management tools (Jira, Xray, Confluence).
• Experience with cloud execution grids (LambdaTest).
• Knowledge of Contract Testing tools (PACTFlow) and Test Data Management tools (Tonic.ai, Masking Engines).
• Familiarity with automotive finance platforms such as Alfa Systems and RouteOne.
• Extra plus is knowledgeable on FiServ products.
