Job summary

MARVES CONSULTING PTE. LTD. in Singapore seeks a QA Automation Engineer to design, build, and own automated test suites spanning UI, API and regression layers, and embed them into CI/CD pipelines for rapid feedback.

You will combine hands-on framework engineering with robust functional testing in a regulated banking environment, working across Jira/Xray and SQL-backed data validation.

Qualifications

• Proven experience as a QA Automation Engineer within Agile/Scrum delivery teams.
• Strong hands-on expertise with a modern automation framework such as Playwright, Selenium or Cypress.
• Sound programming ability in at least one of Java, Python, TypeScript or JavaScript, sufficient to build and refactor framework code.
• Hands-on experience automating REST API tests using tools such as Postman, REST Assured or equivalent libraries.
• Practical experience integrating automated suites into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI or Azure DevOps), with Git as the version control system.
• Good SQL skills for test data preparation and back-end validation of results.

• Integrate automated suites into CI/CD pipelines so that every build is gated by an automated quality check
• Automate service-layer validation of REST APIs, covering request and response contracts, error paths, and data integrity
• Identify the highest-value candidates for automation and maintain a pragmatic balance between automated and exploratory manual testing
• Investigate failures through structured root cause analysis, distinguishing genuine defects from environment, data or test fragility
• Keep the suite fast and trustworthy by actively eliminating flaky tests and managing test data
• Report coverage, pass rates and defect trends to stakeholders, making quality visible across the delivery lifecycle
