QA Automation Engineer – Wealth Management Technology – London / Hybrid
(Key skills: QA Engineer, SDET, Test Automation, TypeScript, Python, C#, Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, API Testing, CI/CD, Agile, SQL, SalesForce, Git, DevOps, Financial Services, QA Engineer)
Are you a QA Engineer with a strong software engineering mindset? Do you enjoy building scalable automation frameworks, working closely with developers, and embedding quality into every stage of the delivery lifecycle? This is an exciting opportunity to join a modern, technology-driven wealth management organisation undergoing significant digital transformation.
Our client is a forward-thinking wealth management business investing in cutting-edge platforms to enhance client experience and operational efficiency. As an QA Automation Engineer, you will play a key role in ensuring quality is engineered into their products from the ground up, working as part of cross-functional Agile teams delivering high-impact financial applications.
In this role, you will take ownership of test automation strategy and implementation, designing and building robust, scalable automation frameworks across web services and APIs. You’ll work with modern tools such as Playwright/Cypress, alongside languages like TypeScript, Python and/or C#, to create high-quality, maintainable automated test suites that integrate seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines.
You will collaborate closely with developers, DevOps engineers and product teams to drive a shift-left testing approach, ensuring quality is considered from initial design through to production. This includes contributing to requirement analysis, defining acceptance criteria, and embedding automated testing into the development workflow. You’ll also be responsible for validating APIs using tools such as Postman or Swagger and leveraging SQL to support data validation and integrity checks.
A key part of the role will be improving engineering practices across the team — enhancing test coverage, reducing manual effort, and increasing deployment confidence. You will actively contribute to continuous integration processes, ensuring automated tests are executed reliably as part of build and release pipelines.
The ideal candidate will bring strong experience (5 - 10 years) in test automation within Agile environments, with a solid foundation in programming and a passion for quality engineering. Experience within financial services or similarly regulated environments is beneficial, but equally important is a proactive mindset, strong problem-solving ability and a drive to continuously improve systems and processes.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a collaborative, high-performing engineering team where quality is treated as a core engineering discipline, not just a function.
