Job Description & How to Apply Below

We are looking for a QA Engineer who views AI as their primary leverage. At BVNK, we aren't just looking for someone to maintain scripts; we want an engineer who views manual, repetitive testing as a problem to be solved with intelligent agents.

You will join a team of Quality Assurance experts responsible for the end-to-end integrity of our Fiat and Crypto products. Your mission is to evolve our testing from "automated" to "autonomous." You will build intelligent testing systems that predict failures, self-heal scripts, and utilize LLMs to bridge the gap between complex financial requirements and bulletproof code.

Key Areas of Responsibilities
  • AI-First Framework Evolution: Architect and maintain automation frameworks that prioritize AI-powered solutions for test generation, execution, and self-healing.
  • Autonomous Quality Gates: Implement AI-driven gates in our CI/CD pipeline to predict regression risks before code is even merged.
  • Synthetic Data Strategy: Leverage Generative AI to create complex, high-integrity test data sets for diverse global payment scenarios.
  • Intelligent Observability: Use AI to analyze logs and system behavior, providing insights that traditional testing tools miss.
  • Mentorship & AI Evangelism: Act as the subject matter expert on emerging AI tools (Claude Code, Lang Chain) to upskill the broader QA team.
What we need from you
  • AI-Native Mindset: You are an early adopter of LLMs and agentic workflows. You don't just use AI to write snippets; you use it to architect solutions.
  • Technical Core: Expert-level proficiency in Python (our primary language) and the ability to navigate Java environments.
  • Modern Tooling: Hands-on experience with PyTest, Playwright, and K6.
  • Engineering for AI: Demonstrated experience implementing AI solutions for test case generation and automated bug triaging.
  • Infrastructure Fluency: Familiarity with CI/CD concepts and desire to understand the integration of AI-driven testing into the deployment lifecycle.
  • Precision & Speed: Exceptional attention to detail with the ability to move fast in a rapidly evolving Fin Tech environment.
  • Bonus:
    LLM Integration: Experience building custom GPTs or using Lang Chain/Lang Smith/Lang Graf to evaluate LLM-based product features.
  • Bonus:
    Fin Tech & Crypto: Previous experience in payments, stable coins, or blockchain technology.
  • Bonus:
    Agentic Testing: Experience experimenting with autonomous agents for exploratory testing.
What you can expect from us
  • Fair and competitive salary at every stage of your growth
  • Meaningful ownership in the business through our employee option scheme
  • Flexible working hours, with hybrid working at its heart
  • A culture built on passionate growth-minded people
  • A flexible approach to holiday
  • Opportunities to travel to our offices around the world
  • An open and creative environment where you can help us define the future of BVNK, its culture, and its opportunity sets

At BVNK, we are focused on building a diverse and inclusive team. While you may not meet all of our requirements, we’d encourage you to apply if you meet the majority of our expectations. You may be a great fit for this role or another role in our team.
