# Senior QA Engineer

> Avomind · Dubai, United Arab Emirates (Remote) · Full-time · Posted 2026-06-22

**Workplace:** remote

**Department:** External - Technology

## Description

We are looking for an exceptional individual to join the Core Platform team as a Senior QA Engineer. This is a deliberately versatile role: rather than owning a single feature area, you will act as a trusted quality specialist we can deploy onto whatever is most critical at any given moment: the mission-critical, time-sensitive work that is difficult to plan for in advance and that we need handled with confidence and minimal ramp-up. Success depends first on mindset: genuine flexibility, sound judgement under pressure, and uncompromising attention to detail; and second on deep functional knowledge of our products across the Core Platform, Onboarding, Payments, PSP, Trading, Loyalty, and Operations. 

-   Take ownership of whatever is most critical at a given time, often at short notice and with limited time to plan —moving quickly into a problem, understanding the risk, and driving it to a confident resolution. 

-   Operate with the autonomy and judgement that let the team fully entrust mission-critical, time-sensitive work to you without close oversight. 

-   Apply rigorous, non-negotiable attention to detail, surfacing the edge cases, subtle regressions, and quiet failure modes that others miss. 

-   Build and continuously deepen functional expertise across all Core Platform domains including Onboarding, Payments, PSP, Trading, Loyalty, and Operations; Understanding not just how each domain works but why it matters and where the real business and client risk sits, so testing effort is always aimed at what counts. 

-   Act as a go-to reference on product behaviour and quality risk for engineering, product, and operations partners, working as an embedded team player across squads. 

-   As a secondary focus, translate this domain expertise into a sharper automation strategy by critically vetting what is genuinely worth automating and pushing back on low-value coverage, so we test what actually matters with no fluff. 

-   Partner with engineering to ensure automated coverage targets the highest-risk, business-critical paths rather than chasing coverage metrics for their own sake. 

-   Provide hands-on test support across front-end and back-end changes, user workflows, performance, and security when needed.

## Requirements

**Essential:** 

**1\. Mindset and ways of working:** 

-   Highly adaptable and comfortable with ambiguity, i.e. be able to switch focus and context at short notice and still deliver. 

-   Trustworthy and self-directed: can be handed mission-critical work and own it end to end. 

-   Uncompromising attention to detail. This is not optional for this role. 

-   A strong, collaborative team player who builds trust quickly across functions. 

-   Sound judgement under time pressure; calm and methodical when priorities shift. 

**2\. Domain and functional expertise (primary requirement):** 

-   Proven experience (5+ years) in QA or quality engineering, ideally on a trading app, brokerage, or comparable fintech product, so you arrive with relevant context rather than starting from scratch. 

-   Demonstrated ability to rapidly build deep functional knowledge of complex products and become a credible subject-matter expert. 

-   Strong product thinking: able to reason about user workflows, business impact, and where quality risk actually lives. 

-   Experience testing across infrastructure (k8s), front-end (mobile or web), and back-end (API) surfaces. 

**3\. Technical ability (secondary requirement):** 

-   Ability to critically evaluate and help shape an automation strategy: you do not need to own the framework, but you must understand it well enough to challenge it intelligently. 

-   Working familiarity with a stack like ours: Go-based back-end services, a Flutter mobile front-end, RESTful APIs, and a micro-services architecture. 

-   Comfortable with test automation concepts and frameworks, CI/CD pipelines, issue tracking, version control, and SQL/NoSQL/Kafka data validation. 

-   Able to perform high-level impact analysis and define pragmatic test approaches for production and maintenance changes. 

-   BS/MS degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience. 

**4\. Communication and working arrangement:** 

-   Excellent communication skills in English, with the ability to explain quality risk clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. 

-   Open to on-site (UAE) or remote candidates; remote applicants must be able to work core hours aligned with the UAE region. 

**Desirable:** 

-   Experience working on a B2C trading or investing product. 

-   Exposure across multiple fintech domains (Payments, PSP, Onboarding, Trading, Loyalty, Operations). 

-   Experience in a regulated financial-services environment.
