Job description

Build confidence into the connected technology powering the next chapter of Vanquis

We’re strengthening quality across Salesforce, MuleSoft and enterprise data as Vanquis moves towards sustainable delivery at scale.

As a Test Engineer, you’ll combine hands‑on testing with purposeful automation to protect customer and colleague journeys, expose risk earlier and help teams release with confidence.

There’s More to the Story

Vanquis is evolving. We’re modernising how we work, strengthening customer experiences and building technology capabilities that can deliver value predictably and at scale.

How you’ll make an impact:

• Shape risk-based coverage early, helping teams prevent avoidable defects and rework.
• Assure end-to-end journeys across Salesforce, MuleSoft and enterprise data flows.
• Build maintainable Copado automation that increases regression confidence and reduces manual effort.
• Turn complex failures into clear evidence, faster root‑cause conversations and pragmatic next steps.
• Give stakeholders transparent insight into readiness, quality risk and release decisions.
• Improve reusable testing patterns so Quality Engineering becomes stronger with every delivery.

Why this role matters:

Multiple value streams are delivering change across connected platforms. This role helps Vanquis maintain pace while protecting customer outcomes, secure data handling and strong governance. You’ll work across Engineering, Product, Data, Operations and Release, with visible influence over how quality is built into delivery.

Ways of Working:

• Strategic Partnership | Work across disciplines to make quality a shared outcome.
• Continuous Improvement | Turn learning, patterns and evidence into better ways of delivering.
• Customer Focus | Protect the journeys and services customers and colleagues rely on.
• Growth Mindset | Stay curious, ask why and build capability through challenge.
• Purposeful Automation | Automate where it improves speed, coverage and confidence.
• Evidence‑Led Decisions | Make risk and readiness clear to technical and non‑technical stakeholders.

The tools helping us shape what’s next:

• Salesforce | Configuration, Lightning, Flow, security, data and APIs.
• MuleSoft | Mule 4, API‑led integration, contracts, mappings and monitoring.
• Test Automation | Copado Robotic Testing, reusable tests and CI/CD quality gates.
• Data Assurance | SQL, reconciliation, migration and source‑to‑target validation.

• Integrated application testing across planning, execution, defects and reporting.
• Practical Salesforce testing across configuration, security, data, APIs or integrations.
• API and data testing, including SQL and evidence‑led failure investigation.
• Automated regression testing within Git‑based CI/CD delivery.
• Risk‑based, shift‑left testing and clear communication of quality trade‑offs.
• A collaborative, curious and calm approach in complex delivery environments.

Your experience does not need to match every point. If the opportunity excites you and you bring transferable strengths, we encourage you to apply.

Useful, but not essential

• MuleSoft, MUnit or Anypoint Platform experience.
• Financial services or another regulated‑industry background.

Deepen your expertise across connected platforms, automation and regulated delivery. You’ll gain cross‑functional exposure, contribute to Quality Engineering standards and build towards senior, automation, specialist or leadership pathways.

Why Vanquis?

• Up to 10% Pension Contribution
• LinkedIn Learning
