They should be able to design tests that validate non-functional requirements as part of automated testing within CI/CD pipelines. They should be documentation-minded, able to produce evidence that stands up to external audit, and comfortable moving between engineering conversations and SOX/internal-controls discussions.This role requires someone who can communicate clearly, ask thoughtful questions, identify gaps or ambiguity, and help ensure the software solution is correct, controlled, traceable, and audit ready.Design and execute functional, regression, integration, end-to-end, and non-functional (NFR) test plans across multi-step financial workflows and state transitionsValidate complex financial computations, reconcile data across transactional and analytical layers, and write SQL queries against the system of record to verify correctness and consistencyTranslate SOX, internal-control, business, and technical requirements into executable test cases in partnership with developers, accounting, and control stakeholdersTest maker-checker workflows, role-based access boundaries, and segregation-of-duties controls, including negative cases, via API testingTest event-driven workflows across services, validating message delivery, processing order, idempotency, and failure handlingValidate that audit events are generated for every controlled state change (UI, batch, API), captured with accurate content and timestamps in an append-only, immutable evidence storeTest inbound data from third-party valuation/pricing systems and outbound payloads to systems of record for schema correctness, completeness, failure handling, and reconciliationProduce audit-ready artifacts, including test plans, results narratives, and evidence packages, that stand alone during external-auditor fieldwork without additional explanationTrack defects through their full lifecycle, from identification through resolution, ensuring traceability and closureDesign and maintain automated test suites, integrating repeatable test scenarios into CI/CD pipelines to validate functional and non-functional requirements on every releaseGenerate and manage test dataReview logs, query data, and troubleshoot issues across application, integration, and data layersParticipate in sprint ceremonies, release readiness reviews, and production support triage as neededHelp establish and improve QA processes, standards, and best practices.Requirements/What You'll Bring:3+ years of QA/test engineering experience supporting backend financial, fintech, or regulated systemsProficiency in Python with hands-on experience using pytest for test automationStrong test automation skills with experience integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines (Playwright a plus)Strong SQL skills for non-trivial data validation, reconciliation, and control testingSOX or internal-controls testing experience, including segregation-of-duties, maker-checker workflows, and audit-reviewed evidenceExperience testing REST APIs (Postman, REST-assured, or similar)Critical thinking and attention to detail, able to identify ambiguity, validate assumptions, and produce clear, complete, audit-ready documentationEffective communicator who moves fluidly between engineering, business/control stakeholders, and audit-facing discussionsAdded bonus if you have (Preferred):Experience with Java services and testing within Java-based microservice environmentsExperience testing financial data for correctness, including calculations, reconciliations, balances, or valuation-related outputsExperience validating immutable or append-only audit dataExperience with FastAPI backends and PostgreSQL systems of recordExperience working in financial services, fintech, accounting-adjacent systems, or other highly regulated environmentsKnowledge of cloud services and deployment patterns in AWSFamiliarity with Agile/Scrum delivery practices TPI Global
