Senior QA Engineer
Make quality part of the engineering system.
AbleCredit builds software for complex enterprise workflows where AI, APIs, business rules, human decisions, and real-world operations have to work together reliably. We care about building products that work in production - not just in demos. We're looking for a senior quality engineer who can move quality upstream: from release-time testing to better automation, contracts, observability, and engineering practices.
What You'll Own?
• Own quality strategy across web, mobile, backend APIs, integrations, and end-to-end workflows.
• Design and maintain automated regression suites for critical customer journeys.
• Build API, integration, contract, and workflow tests that catch failures before production.
• Partner with engineering and product teams during design - not only after development is complete.
• Define release readiness, risk-based testing, and production validation practices.
• Investigate escaped defects, identify systemic causes, and drive preventive improvements.
• Improve test data, environments, tooling, and CI integration so teams can ship confidently.
What We're Looking For?
• 5+ years in software quality engineering or test automation.
• Strong API and backend testing experience, including asynchronous and integration-heavy systems.
• Experience testing mobile and web applications and understanding client/ server failure modes.
• Ability to write automation in JavaScript/ TypeScript, Python, Java, or a similar language.
• Strong debugging skills across logs, network requests, databases, and distributed services.
• Experience with CI/CD and integrating automated tests into release pipelines.
• A product mindset: prioritize risk and customer impact rather than maximizing test-case counts.
Nice to Have
• Performance, load, security, or reliability testing.
• Experience with Playwright, Cypress, Appium, Postman/ Newman, k6, or similar tooling.
• Experience with event-driven systems, queues, webhooks, and long running workflows.
• Experience testing AI-assisted or non-deterministic product behavior.
How We Think About Quality?
Quality is an engineering responsibility. Automation should create confidence, not dashboards. A production escape should improve the system that allowed it to happen. The goal is simple: ship quickly without making customers our test environment.
ROLE SUMMARY:
In this role, you will be responsible for supporting people, technical processes, and engineering execution to ensure projects are delivered as per scope, budget, and timelines.
This role includes developing detailed project plans and comprehensive technical documentation, managing project Engineers and their availability, measuring engineering performance, tracking progress, and communicating project status to clients and internal stakeholders. You will work directly with Solutions Architects, Tech Leads, and Engineering teams to evaluate technical trade-offs, drive system design feasibility, and unblock engineering bottlenecks.
You will be a reliable and crucial team member who can anticipate client needs and translate complex technical requirements into actionable project milestones.
As a Technical Project Manager, you will be the point of contact for all stakeholders from initiation to closure and will be responsible for leading the technical delivery team to achieve project objectives. You will work towards balancing technical constraints, technical debt, and Engineer availability on the project. You will report project status to client and internal stakeholders, escalate technical and operational issues as needed, and perform risk management to identify and mitigate architectural and delivery risks while maintaining strong advocacy within your spheres of influence.
QUALIFICATIONS:
Technical Project Manager with 7+ years experience: Including minimum 3 years of IT (Mobile/Web) project management experience and a prior background as a Software Engineer, Tech Lead, or Developer.
Strong expertise in Agile methodologies (Scrum/Kanban).
Must have handled end-to-end SDLC projects as a Technical Project Manager or Scrum Master.
WHAT WILL YOU NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THIS ROLE?
Handle a portfolio of technical projects and clients in parallel and across geographies.
Develop an execution plan for projects, release schedules, CI/CD milestones, and team allocation.
Partner with technical leads to review high-level system designs, break down complex requirements into epics and user stories, and challenge technical estimates effectively.
Maintain strong relationships with product delivery, engineering leads, sales teams, clients, and account managers.
Expertise in project estimation, planning, tracking, scope control, technical risk and issues management, as well as engineering status reporting.
GOOD TO HAVE:
Hands-on or architecture exposure to.NET/Java/AWS/Azure or microservices architectures.
PMP / PMI-ACP / CSM (Certified ScrumMaster) certification.
Jira/Confluence project management tools expertise, Git workflows, and strong working knowledge of Microsoft Office.
COMPETENCIES:
Strong commitment to professional client service and engineering excellence.
Excellent communication (written, verbal, and presentation), persuasive, and negotiating skills—with the ability to bridge technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Encourage, motivate, and mentor team members on agile practices and technical ownership.
Proactive can-do and technical problem-solving approach to the job.
