You will design and build the quality systems that keep our payment platform reliable at scale — in an environment where new code is produced using AI tooling and judgment is the bottleneck, not generation speed. This is not a traditional "write and execute test cases" role. We believe software engineers own their tests — your job is to make them better at it. You will own the sensor strategy that catches what AI gets wrong, verify that test intent matches business requirements, and raise the quality bar for the entire team. /p h3Responsibilities /h3 ul liDesign and implement layered quality sensors across our CI/CD pipeline — from static analysis to AI‑driven code review passes /li liImprove and maintain E2E test suites for critical payment flows (card authorisation, clearing and settlement, tokenisation, 3D Secure) /li liReview PRs for test intent alignment — ensuring AI‑authored and human‑authored code meets the same quality bar /li liIdentify test coverage gaps and prioritise them by risk (customer impact, regulatory exposure)



/li liBuild load testing and performance validation frameworks /li liCollaborate with the team on quality strategy — you raise the bar, you don't gatekeep it /li liExplore chaos engineering approaches to validate system resilience /li liContribute to audit‑trail thinking — ensuring generated diffs and suppressed checks are traceable and defensible /li /ul h3Qualifications /h3 pbRequired: /b /p ul li5+ years in software engineering with a strong focus on quality and testing (equivalence partitioning, boundary analysis, risk‑based prioritization) /li liProficiency in Go (or strong willingness to learn — test‑design thinking matters more than language syntax) /li liDemonstrated AI fluency — you use AI assistants daily, you know when they're wrong, and you know when NOT to use them /li liExperience testing RESTful APIs and event‑driven systems /li liFamiliarity with CI/CD pipelines, containerisation, and infrastructure‑as‑code /li liStrong analytical thinking — you pull bugs back to the spec, not just the code /li liComfort with regulated environments — you think in terms of audit trails, blast radius, and data classification /li liStrong proficiency in English — written and verbal /li liExcellent communication skills — this role enables and mentors, not just audits. You need to teach, not agitate /li /ul pbNice to have: /b /p ul liExperience using observability platforms (Datadog, New Relic, Elasticsearch, Grafana) to investigate issues and validate system behaviour /li liUnderstanding of failure modes in distributed systems (event ordering, retries, idempotency, eventual consistency) /li liKnowledge of Domain‑Driven Design (DDD) — bounded contexts, ubiquitous language, aggregate boundaries /li /ul h3Equal Opportunity Employer /h3 pCross River is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
