Descripción de la vacante

EPAM Systems in Colombia is seeking a QA Architect to lead end-to-end test strategy for the SmartCall cloud migration across services, SPAs, and regulated reports. You will define coverage, tooling, and automation for backend, 135 SPA screens, and report definitions across phased delivery and cutover.

You will own testing strategy, coordinate load and security testing, guide teams, and ensure regulatory correctness while enabling a smooth production cutover.

Formación

• Proven track record with 9+ years of QA engineering experience, setting up testing strategy from the ground up on migration or modernization initiatives.
• Solid background in backend integration testing and frontend E2E automation, including regulated or financial services systems with audit trail and data integrity needs.
• Deep understanding of test strategy across unit, integration, API, E2E, performance, and security layers.
• Hands-on experience with xUnit, Testcontainers, and PostgreSQL for integration testing and characterization test approaches.
• Strong skills in REST API test automation, including OpenAPI contract validation, auth-aware scenarios, and tenant boundary coverage.
• Practical expertise with Playwright (TypeScript or C#) or equivalent for E2E automation across auth flows, async polling UIs, and multi-session conflict cases.
• Working knowledge of pdfplumber, PyMuPDF, or equivalent for PDF/document regression testing of DevExpress report definitions.
• Demonstrated expertise in multi-tenant data isolation testing, including RLS policy validation and cross-institution leakage scenarios.
• Proven ability in UAT planning and facilitation with non-technical end users under tight deadlines.
• Showcase of effective use of AI to facilitate testing, such as test case generation and testing harnesses.
• English proficiency at B2 (Upper-Intermediate) level or higher.

Responsabilidades

• Own the end-to-end testing strategy for every stage of the SmartCall cloud migration.
• Define the tooling stack, coverage levels, and automation architecture aligned to the overall strategy.
• Establish the Phase 1 characterization test baseline to preserve existing behavior.
• Coordinate load testing and penetration testing activities during Phases 5-6.
• Drive production cutover sign-off for the institution-by-institution rollout.
• Build the test harness and tacit knowledge base within the first 2 months.
• Ensure the agentic factory delivers screens without weakening regulatory correctness.
• Author strategy and guidance for unit, integration, API, E2E, performance, and security tiers.
• Delegate execution to 2 TAEs while retaining strategic ownership and direction.
• Facilitate UAT sessions with non-technical bank compliance staff.
• Guide defect triage discussions with senior engineers.
