Treasury and Balance Sheet Management plays a critical role in supporting the bank's financial strength, data integrity, regulatory commitments, and operational resilience. Our technology teams partner closely with treasury business users, testing leads, business systems analysts, engineers, and platform teams to deliver trusted data solutions, modern testing practices, and controls that help strengthen decision-making across the enterprise. As a Senior QA Automation Engineer
, you will help build and evolve quality-control frameworks for complex data movement, large-volume data validation, and cloud-based analytics platforms. You will bring strong automation engineering experience, hands‑on data testing skills, and the ability to use AI, Copilot, and agent‑based workflows responsibly and effectively to accelerate quality engineering outcomes.

• Build confidence through automation: Design, develop, and maintain automated testing frameworks for data pipelines, APIs, cloud data platforms, and application workflows using tools such as Selenium, PyTest, Python, and related automation libraries.
• Validate data with precision: Test data movement across systems by creating automated controls for completeness, accuracy, reconciliation, schema validation, anomaly detection, and quality checks at key integration points.
• Support modern data platforms: Develop and execute test strategies for Azure-based data solutions, including Azure Databricks, Spark SQL, Delta Lake, PySpark, Azure Data Lake Storage, Azure Data Factory, and related data engineering pipelines.
• Strengthen API and integration testing: Build automated validation for REST APIs, service integrations, data ingestion, and downstream outputs using fit-for-purpose tools and frameworks.
• Partner across teams: Work with testing leads, treasury business users, business systems analysts, developers, and platform engineers to understand requirements, define test coverage, and support end-to-end delivery.
• Use AI responsibly to improve delivery: Apply Microsoft Copilot, Git Hub Copilot, and agent-based workflows to support test generation, code acceleration, documentation, defect analysis, data profiling, and regression coverage while maintaining engineering judgment, review discipline, and compliance expectations.

• 6–10 years of overall technology experience, including hands‑on QA automation, test framework development, and testing of complex data or application platforms.
• Strong programming experience with Python, Perl, or a similar scripting language, with the ability to build reusable automation utilities and validation frameworks.
• Hands‑on experience with Selenium, PyTest, API testing, regression testing, functional testing, and automated test execution in modern delivery environments.
• Strong SQL and data validation experience, including testing large-volume data movement, reconciliation, completeness, accuracy, schema checks, and data quality controls.
• Practical experience with Azure-based data platforms and services, including Azure Databricks, Spark SQL, Delta Lake, PySpark, Azure Data Lake Storage, Azure Data Factory, and related cloud data engineering patterns.
• Ability to use AI-enabled engineering tools effectively, including Microsoft Copilot, Git Hub Copilot, and agent-based workflows, to accelerate test design, automation development, documentation, defect analysis, and…
