QA Automation Engineer - Finacle Core Banking

Role Overview

• We are looking for a sharp, detail-obsessed QA Automation Engineer with hands-on Finacle 11x testing experience and strong automation skills.
• This is not a manual-testing-with-a-sprinkle-of-automation role.
• You will own test automation end-to-end across Finacle core banking modules, interfaces, and customizations.
• If you've only clicked through Finacle screens and called it testing, this isn't for you.
• **Mandatory Requirements*** Minimum **5 years of QA/Testing experience**, with at least **3 years specifically on Finacle Core Banking (Infosys/Edgeverve)**
• Hands-on experience on **Finacle 11x** — functional flows, customization layers, and module behaviour
• Proficiency in **one of the following automation stacks** (not familiarity — actual delivery experience):
• + **Selenium + Java** (TestNG/JUnit, Maven/Gradle, Page Object Model)
• + **Playwright + Node.js** (TypeScript preferred, async/await patterns, fixture management)
• Solid **Banking domain knowledge** — you understand what you're testing, not just how to test it
• Experience testing **Finacle Interfaces** — Connect 24, Finacle Integrator, Custom & Product APIs
• **Testing Scope — What You'll Actually Do*** Design, build, and maintain automation frameworks for Finacle functional and regression testing
• Test **Finacle customizations** — custom menus, batch jobs, MRT/Jasper reports, FI configurations, EOD/BOD processes
• Validate **Finacle integrations** — API-level testing of inbound/outbound interfaces using tools like Postman, REST-assured, or Playwright's API testing layer
• Write and execute **SQL/PL/SQL validation scripts** against Oracle DB for backend data verification
• Build and maintain **regression suites** that can be triggered across release cycles without manual intervention
• Perform **defect triage** with development and functional teams — you need to speak both languages
• Contribute to **test strategy, test plans, and UAT support** directly with banking clients
• **Technical Skills*** **Automation:** Selenium + Java *or* Playwright + Node.js — framework ownership, not just script execution
• **Core Banking Testing:** Finacle 11x modules — Deposits, Loans, GL, Payments, CRM, Admin (FINFADM/SSOADM)
• **Database:** Oracle SQL, PL/SQL — writing validation queries, checking stored procedures, triggers
• **API Testing:** REST/SOAP interface validation; Finacle Connect 24 / Finacle Integrator flows
• **Scripting:** Unix shell scripting for test execution, log analysis, environment setup
• **CI/CD Integration:** Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or equivalent — automation must run in pipelines, not just locally
• **Test Management:** JIRA, Zephyr, ALM, or similar
• **Functional Knowledge*** Core banking functional flows: account lifecycle, transactions, interest processing, fee structures, EOD/BOD
• Finacle CRM and Admin module testing
• Regulatory and compliance-aware testing mindset (banking context)
• Agile/Scrum delivery — sprint-based testing cycles, story-level acceptance criteria
• Finacle certification from Infosys is a **strong advantage**
• **Nice to Have*** ISTQB certification (Foundation or Advanced)
• Experience with performance testing tools (JMeter/Gatling) on Finacle environments
• Exposure to Finacle on cloud/containerised deployments
• Prior experience working in a **banking client-facing delivery** role
