🔎 Overview
- As Senior Quality Engineer at Fintalo, you'll be our first dedicated quality hire — owning the final pass before anything reaches the institutions that run live M&A deals on our platform
- You're not inheriting a QA process. You design the one everyone else follows, from test strategy to how and when tests run in our pipeline
- Our product owner defines the feature and the design; our engineers build it. You're the person who decides whether what got built is what was specified — and whether it holds up under load
- We ship fast and the blast radius of a bad release is large: investment banks and corporate M&A teams use Fintalo daily, not as a pilot
👩🍳 Responsibilities
- Own feature quality: smoke and regression testing along the ticket → development → QA → production flow, for new features and the ones that already shipped
- Run the deeper passes we don't cover today — performance, stress, security and accessibility — on a recurring cadence
- Write and maintain our automated test suites and extend the QA tooling we've already started building
- Decide how and when tests run in CI/CD, not just what they contain
- Review PRDs and designs before development starts, so gaps surface at spec time instead of in review
- Hold the line on design fidelity, not only functional behaviour
- Rebuild our quality workflow as you go — we expect a good part of how we ship to change once you're here, and that's the point of the hire
🧠 Qualifications
- Around 5 years in QA or test engineering, ideally in a product company
- Solid foundations across the testing modalities — functional, regression, smoke, performance, stress, accessibility. You think in test strategy, not tool tutorials
- Comfortable with code. You write your own automation. Playwright, Cypress, Appium — the specific tool matters far less than the automation mindset
- You raise issues early and loudly. We want the person who calls at 9am about the bug nobody else noticed
- Initiative and ownership. This is a build-it-from-zero role in a startup, not a maintenance seat
- Nice to have: a DevOps/infra mentality (pipelines, test environments), German, or exposure to M&A, investment banking or professional-services software
