Role Overview

  • This is not a traditional QA or automation role.
  • This position is for a **hands-on full stack engineer who builds features and delivers automated test coverage alongside them**.
  • You will be responsible for embedding test automation within the development lifecycle, ensuring every feature is production-ready with immediate validation.
  • The goal is to eliminate testing bottlenecks, reduce regression risk, and maintain high delivery velocity.
  • **Key Responsibilities*** Design, develop, and maintain scalable web applications using **React.js (TypeScript)** and **Node.js**
  • Build **automated test scripts in parallel with feature development** (in-sprint automation)
  • Ensure high code quality through **unit, integration, and end-to-end testing**
  • Collaborate closely with product, QA, and DevOps to ensure seamless delivery
  • Integrate automated tests into **CI/CD pipelines** for continuous validation
  • Identify performance bottlenecks and optimise both frontend and backend systems
  • Contribute to architecture decisions, focusing on **testability and scalability**
  • Reduce dependency on post-development QA cycles by shifting quality left

Core Technical Skills****Full Stack Development

  • Strong experience in **React.js (TypeScript), JavaScript, HTML5, CSS (SASS / Tailwind / CSS-in-JS)**
  • Solid backend development experience with **Node.js and RESTful APIs**
  • Experience with **NoSQL databases** (MongoDB preferred)
  • Understanding of **GraphQL** (nice to have)

Automation & Testing (Critical Requirement)

  • Hands-on experience with **test automation frameworks** (e.g., Playwright, Cypress, Jest)
  • Ability to write **testable, modular code with high coverage**
  • Experience implementing **in-sprint or shift-left testing practices**
  • Strong understanding of **unit, integration, and E2E testing strategies**

Devops & Architecture

  • Experience with **CI/CD pipelines**
  • Knowledge of **Docker, Kubernetes, and distributed systems**
  • Familiarity with **API gateways and authentication mechanisms (JWT, OAuth, SSO)**
  • Exposure to **event-driven systems / message queues (Kafka, etc.)**
  • **Functional & Domain Experience*** Experience working in **Agile/Scrum environments**
  • Banking or Retail domain experience is a plus
  • Strong focus on **code quality, security, and performance optimisation**
  • **What We’re Really Looking For*** A developer who **doesn’t throw code over the wall to QA**
  • Someone who **owns quality, not just delivery**
  • Engineers who can **balance speed with stability**
  • People who understand that **untested code is incomplete code**
  • **Experience*** 5+ years in **full stack development (React + Node.js)**
  • Proven experience in **automation within development cycles**
