We're building a dedicated QA team for a European financial services client operating in debt servicing and alternative assets (private equity). As QA Lead, you'll own the test strategy and automation approach for solutions built on AWS using TypeScript and Next.js. This is a hands-on leadership role: you'll set the quality standard, build and maintain automated test suites, and act as the QA voice with both the client and the delivery team - so confident spoken communication and the ability to present to stakeholders are essential.

• Champion quality in a regulated financial services context

About you

• Proven experience as a QA Lead or Senior Test Engineer with a strong automated testing background
• Hands-on automation experience with tools such as Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress
• Strong scripting and coding ability (TypeScript/JavaScript/Node.js; Python, Go, or C# a plus)
• Solid AWS experience (Lambda, API Gateway, S3, DynamoDB, CI/CD pipelines)
• Experience testing API-driven and web applications, with strong API testing expertise
• Practical experience using AI tools to improve QA productivity and coverage
• Excellent English communication skills - especially confident, clear spoken presentation to stakeholders
• Disciplined test planning, analysis, and execution in an Agile environment

We believe in supporting our team members both professionally and personally. Here's how we invest in you:
