Role QA Automation Testing Manager, onsite in Stamford, CT - Full-time. Job ID: 384505/-NR
Experience Required: 12 - 20+ Years
Job Description We are seeking a QA Automation Testing Manager (SDET) with 10+ years leading multiteam QA programs, to drive engineering‑quality practices across complex banking platforms and integrations. You will architect automation frameworks, embed quality into CI/CD, and lead a team of SDETs/QA engineers to deliver reliable, compliant releases at speed. Experience in BFSI systems (core banking, payments, digital channels) and hands‑on coding for test automation is essential.
Responsibilities
Automation Architecture & Delivery: Design, implement, and scale UI/API/DB automation frameworks (Selenium Java/UFT, RestAssured/Postman, Cucumber/BDD, TestNG/JUnit).
Integrate automated suites into CI/CD (Azure DevOps, Jenkins, GitLab) with quality gates, parallelization, test impact analysis, and artifact publishing.
Establish coding standards for test harnesses, mocks, data builders, and service virtualization; enforce code reviews and static analysis for test code.
Translate banking use cases (core deposits/loans, ACH/wires, card/payments, digital banking) into robust automated scenarios and data validations.
Partner with product owners and vendor teams (e.g., Fiserv, internal platforms) to triage defects, validate patches/hotfixes, and maintain regression beds.
Lead a squad of SDETs/QA engineers: capacity planning, mentoring, and upskilling on advanced automation topics.
Orchestrate defect triage, root‑cause analysis, and risk‑based test planning; own release readiness (go/no‑go) and rollback validation.
Drive shift‑left practices (contract testing, API first, early data checks) and shift‑right observability (synthetic monitoring, production validation dashboards).
Ensure test evidence meets BFSI regulatory/audit needs (SOX); automate traceability from user stories to test results and logs.
Required Qualifications
10–12+ years in software testing/quality engineering, with 5+ years leading SDET/automation teams.
Strong hands‑on coding in Java/C# (or equivalent) for test automation (frameworks, utilities, custom drivers).
Proven delivery of CI/CD‑integrated automation at scale; expert in test design for microservices, REST APIs, and event‑driven systems.
BFSI domain experience core banking or payments and vendor/platform collaboration (e.g., Fiserv) for patch/regression cycles.
Solid grasp of SQL and data validation; familiarity with logs/metrics (Splunk/Sumo/Grafana) for test diagnostics.
Preferred Skills
Experience with OSAT‑style regression accelerators or similar enterprise frameworks; comfortable with shift‑left/shift‑right test strategies.
Performance testing (JMeter, LoadRunner).
ISTQB (Advanced), Agile/SAFe, or cloud certifications (Azure/AWS).
Education
Bachelor's in computer science/engineering or related field (advanced degree a plus).
