QA Automations Engineer

Cashen; United States; A distancia; USD 90.000 - 130.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

Cashen is building the QA infrastructure from the ground up for an institutional financial platform. You will own automated test suites, CI integration, regression coverage, and release validation to prevent financial missteps in deal state transitions and interest calculations.

You will work closely with the CTO and development team to ensure each release meets the correctness bar and expand coverage to DAML smart contracts and Canton as the platform evolves.

Formación

• 3–5 years in QA engineering or test automation with infra-building experience.
• Experience with API testing, integration testing and end-to-end frameworks.
• Fintech or financial services background preferred; precision matters.

Responsabilidades

• Own the release validation process and define release readiness.
• Design and build automated test suites and data fixtures.
• Integrate tests into CI/CD pipelines and deployment workflows.
• Extend coverage to DAML smart contracts and onchain/off-chain flows.

Descripción del empleo

You own quality and test automation at Cashen. You will build the QA infrastructure from the ground up — automated test suites, CI integration, regression coverage, and release validation — for a platform where bugs have financial consequences. A missed edge case in a deal state transition or an interest accrual rounding error doesn't just degrade UX — it moves money incorrectly between institutional counterparties.

You work directly with the CTO and the development team to ensure that every release meets the correctness bar required for institutional financial software. As the platform expands from off-chain marketplace to onchain DAML smart contracts, you will extend test coverage across both layers.

Who we're looking for

• 3–5 years in QA engineering or test automation, with experience building test infrastructure — not just running manual test plans
• Experience with API testing, integration testing, and end-to-end test frameworks (Playwright, Cypress, Jest, or equivalent)
• Background in fintech, financial services, or any system where numerical precision and state machine correctness matter
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines — you will wire automated tests into the deployment process
• Comfortable reading and reasoning about financial logic: interest calculations, LTV thresholds, settlement sequences, and multi-party deal flows
• Build the automated test suite from scratch: integration and end-to-end coverage across backend APIs and frontend application
• Design test frameworks for financial logic validation — interest accrual precision, state machine transition completeness, margin call trigger accuracy
• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines so that every pull request and deployment is validated before reaching production
• Build and maintain test data fixtures and environment management for repeatable, isolated test execution

Release quality & collaboration

• Own the release validation process — define what "release-ready" means and enforce it
• Collaborate with engineers during development to identify testability gaps and advocate for testable architecture
• Extend test coverage to DAML smart contracts and onchain/off-chain integration as the platform moves to Canton
• Document test plans, coverage maps, and known gaps so the team has visibility into quality posture at all times

Why Cashen

• Build from zero: You design the entire QA infrastructure for an institutional financial platform
• Real financial stakes: Your work directly protects institutional counterparties from incorrect deal execution
• Canton ecosystem: Backed by Ergonia and Cumberland, with direct access to Canton Foundation and ecosystem partners
• Lean team, high leverage, fast-paced: Every test you write guards real capital. Quality is not an afterthought here
