Description du poste

Job Description

We move fast. The product is live, the roadmap is full, and quality has to keep up without becoming the thing that slows everyone down. We're looking for a QA engineer who's done enough execution to know what good looks like and is hungry to build the frameworks, automation, and habits that raise the bar for a whole team.

Arabic fluency is central to this role, not a bonus. A large part of what we build is for Arabic-speaking users, and we need someone who can genuinely own the quality of that experience — the language, the flow, the feel of it — not just tick a localisation checklist.

What you'll be doing

Arabic localisation & RTL testing

Own Arabic language quality end-to-end: UI copy, error messages, onboarding, legal text. Test RTL rendering across devices and write bilingual test cases covering language switching, locale formatting, and input validation.

Test planning & execution

Write and execute test plans across functional and non-functional requirements for web and mobile. Cover the full embedded finance journey — account linking, payment initiation, balance retrieval, consent management — with thorough negative testing and edge cases throughout.

API testing & automation

Design and run API test cases across embedded finance endpoints using Postman or REST Assured. Write automated tests across UI and API layers with Cypress, Playwright, or Appium, and wire them into GitHub Actions pipelines so quality gates run on every build.

QA strategy & shift-left

Help move quality thinking upstream — shaping requirements and acceptance criteria before code is written. Work with squads to define coverage expectations across unit, integration, system, and UAT, and get non-functional testing (performance, security, accessibility) taken seriously across the org.

AI-augmented testing

Use AI tooling to generate test cases, edge cases, and synthetic data faster and use the time saved to go deeper on the things that need human judgement. Help the team understand where AI fits in their testing workflow, and where it doesn't.

Requirements

✓ 4–7 years of QA experience, ideally with some time in fintech, open banking, payments, or API-heavy products

✓Native or near-native Arabic fluency — you can read a localised UI and tell us, without a checklist, whether it sounds right

✓Solid API testing skills with Postman, REST Assured, or comparable tooling

✓Hands-on with at least one automation framework: Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, or Appium

✓Experience with GitHub Actions or similar CI/CD tooling and comfort plugging tests into a pipeline

✓Some exposure to performance and security testing: k6, JMeter, OWASP ZAP, or Burp Suite

✓Fluent English alongside Arabic — clear bug reports, documentation, and stakeholder updates in both

✓Practical experience with AI tooling and a sense of where it helps and where it doesn't

Benefits

✓Equity in thew business - you'll own a piece of what you help build

✓The kind of role that shapes your career - you're building the role, not inheriting it

✓Working on a product that's genuinely changing how finance works across the MENA region
