🚀 QA / Quality Engineering Lead

📍 Location: Limassol, Cyprus | Relocation
💼 Industry: Fintech / Payments

We’re looking for a hands-on QA / Quality Engineering Lead to build and lead the quality engineering function for a modern payments platform.

This is not a traditional QA management role. We need a builder— someone who creates automation frameworks, test infrastructure and internal engineering tools that developers actually want to use.

What you’ll do:

🔹 Build automation frameworks and test harnesses, primarily in Go
🔹 Develop test infrastructure for distributed payment systems
🔹 Build mocks, service virtualisation and test data management tools
🔹 Introduce AI-powered tools and agents for test generation, impact analysis, failure triage and root-cause investigation
🔹 Implement quality gates and automated quality signals in CI/CD
🔹 Define a risk-based quality strategy for APIs, payment flows, PSP integrations and customer journeys
🔹 Lead and develop the QA/QE team
🔹 Work closely with Engineering, Product, Platform, Security, Risk and Compliance

What we’re looking for:

✅ Strong hands-on software engineering skills, ideally Go
✅ Experience building automation frameworks, test infrastructure or internal developer tools
✅ 7+ years in QA / Quality Engineering with leadership experience
✅ Strong payments domain knowledge: PSPs, acquiring, 3DS/SCA, callbacks, retries, refunds, reversals, settlement & reconciliation
✅ Strong API, integration and contract testing experience
✅ Experience with distributed and asynchronous systems
✅ SQL, logs, metrics and tracing for troubleshooting
✅ CI/CD and Git-based development workflows
✅ Experience using AI engineering tools with a disciplined approach to validation
✅ Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

⭐ Nice to have: Kubernetes, cloud, event-driven architecture, observability, PCI DSS, PSD2/SCA, performance and resilience testing.

🌟 What We Offer:

• Work on modern FinTech and payment products
• Supportive and collaborative team
• Modern office in Limassol, Cyprus
• Professional growth and leadership opportunities
• Competitive compensation package — up to €7,000 net
•** Relocation support: flight tickets + accommodation for the first 2 weeks
• Visa support**
