> Fuku · Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia · Full-time · Posted 2026-03-09

**Workplace:** on_site

## Description

Why You Should Apply  
\- Opportunity for professionals with both manual and automation testing experience to participate in a transition towards greater automation. Automation expertise is not required.  
\- As a senior team member, you will mentor and guide junior testers, positioning yourself for a leadership role within 1-2 years.  
\- Play a key role in shaping the automation strategy, experimenting with tools, and identifying test cases for future automation.  
\- Join a stable, global financial services company (non-bank) that has operated in Malaysia for 5 years, offering a locally regulated product suite.  
  
What You Will Do  
\- Serve as the most senior Tester/QA in the team, responsible for manual test coverage, validating system behavior, identifying edge cases, and ensuring release quality across complex business workflows and system integrations.  
\- Translate business requirements into effective test strategies and scenarios, and perform functional, UAT, and regression testing.  
\- Guide junior testers and act as the liaison between testing and product & engineering teams to identify root causes for defects.  
\- Identify test cases suitable for automation and develop basic automated test scripts using tools such as Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright.  
\- Collaborate with DevOps and engineers to integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines, with support for strategy and scripting.  
\- This is not a people manager role; you will not directly manage junior testers. Leadership experience is not required, making this an ideal "in-between step" for senior testers seeking career advancement.  
  
What You Will Need  
\- Willingness to work hands-on in a primarily manual environment while supporting the transition to automation.  
\- Ability to work independently and drive digital transformation without relying on a large team or strict SOPs.  
\- Experience in fintech, tech companies, product companies, or digital transformation teams within enterprise/MNC environments. Experience in other highly regulated industries is also welcome.  
\- At least 1 year of experience with automation tools (Selenium, Cypress, Playwright), including basic scripting. Exposure to API testing is a bonus.  
\- Ex-software engineers who have transitioned into testing/QA roles are encouraged to apply.  
  
About the Company & Team  
\- The Malaysian team and product suite are less than 5 years old, but part of a globally established fintech and financial services company operating in 15 countries.  
\- Regulated by Bank Negara Malaysia, ensuring a highly regulated and financially secure environment.  
\- Products are built in-house, enabling long-term initiatives with internal technical capabilities.  
\- Provides end-to-end solutions across front, middle, and back office functions, serving both retail and institutional customers under its own brand and a white-label B2B product.  
\- Offers a hybrid work arrangement, based in central Kuala Lumpur.
