Senior QA Automation Engineer / SDET (Canada-only)

Digital Banking & Credit Union Transformation

Company: Aequilibrium Software Inc.
Location: Canada (Remote)
Employment type: Full-time or contract, depending on client engagement
Seniority: Senior
Industry: Financial Services / Credit Unions

About Aequilibrium

Aequilibrium is a Canadian digital transformation and software engineering company specializing in digital banking, financial services, customer experience, and emerging technologies. We partner with Canadian and US credit unions to modernize digital banking platforms, integrate enterprise systems, and deliver reliable, intuitive member experiences. We are expanding our QA engineering capability to support multiple Canadian credit union clients undergoing digital banking modernization, platform migrations, and integration initiatives.

The Opportunity

We are looking for experienced Senior QA Automation Engineers / Software Development Engineers in Test (SDETs) who combine strong technical testing expertise with practical knowledge of banking and credit union operations. You will work with developers, business analysts, solution architects, product owners, and client teams to ensure complex digital banking applications are secure, reliable, accessible, and production-ready.

This is a hands-on engineering role. We are particularly interested in candidates who can design and maintain automated testing frameworks, validate end-to-end banking workflows, and test integrations between digital banking platforms and core banking systems.

Key Responsibilities

Test Automation & Quality Engineering

Design, develop, and maintain automated UI, API, and integration tests for web and mobile banking applications.
Build reusable test automation frameworks and integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines.
Develop test strategies, test plans, scenarios, and traceability aligned with business requirements.
Execute functional, regression, integration, end-to-end, and exploratory testing.
Investigate defects, analyze logs, identify root causes, and collaborate with developers to resolve them.
Improve test coverage, automation reliability, and quality reporting.

Digital Banking & Credit Union Testing

Validate member-facing journeys, including login, MFA, account balances, transfers, bill payments, Interac e-Transfer, mobile cheque deposit and account servicing.
Test commercial banking capabilities such as delegated access, entitlements, approvals and business payments.
Validate integrations between digital banking platforms, core banking systems, payment services, lending applications and CRM systems.
Support data migration testing, reconciliation and regression testing during platform replacements.
Participate in system integration testing (SIT), user acceptance testing (UAT), release readiness and production validation.
Collaborate with client business teams to ensure test scenarios reflect real banking operations and member needs.

Engineering & Delivery

Work within Agile delivery teams and contribute to sprint planning, refinement and acceptance criteria.
Integrate quality engineering practices into development workflows.
Support performance, security, and accessibility testing in collaboration with specialists.
Provide clear quality metrics, defect reporting, and release-readiness assessments.
Help establish automated quality gates for AI-assisted software development.

Required Qualifications

5+ years of professional software testing or quality engineering experience.
3+ years of hands-on test automation development.
Experience testing financial services, banking, credit union or other transaction-intensive applications.
Strong proficiency with at least one modern test automation framework such as Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, or Appium.
Programming or scripting experience with TypeScript, JavaScript, Java, C#, or Python.
Strong API testing skills using tools such as Postman, REST Assured or equivalent.
Experience testing REST APIs, authentication, authorization and system integrations.
Experience with SQL, data validation, and troubleshooting integration issues.
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and tools such as Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions or Jenkins.
Strong understanding of SDLC, Agile delivery, defect management and risk-based testing.
Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate directly with client stakeholders.

Highly Desirable Experience

Direct experience with Canadian credit unions or digital banking transformation programs.
Testing digital banking platforms such as VeriPark, Backbase, Central 1 Forge/MemberDirect, Intellect Design, Temenos, Lumin or eBankIT.
Integration testing with core banking systems, especially Fiserv DNA or CGI RFS360.
Experience with Canadian payment capabilities, including Interac e-Transfer, bill payments, and payment processing.
Knowledge of mortgage lending, loan origination, commercial banking or CRM workflows.
Experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365, Azure, and . NET-based enterprise environments.
Mobile application testing across iOS and Android.
Performance testing with JMeter, k6, or similar tools.
Accessibility testing aligned with WCAG standards.
Experience testing AI-generated code or implementing automated quality controls in AI-assisted development environments.
Experience supporting banking platform migration, cutover or production hypercare.

What Success Looks Like

Within the first 90 days, you will be expected to:

Understand the client's digital banking architecture, critical workflows and integration dependencies.
Establish or improve automated regression coverage for high-priority banking journeys.
Identify gaps in test coverage and recommend practical improvements.
Contribute to reliable release-readiness reporting and defect management.
Reduce manual regression effort while improving confidence in production releases.

Why Join Aequilibrium?

Work on meaningful digital banking modernization projects with Canadian credit unions.
Collaborate with experienced engineers, designers, architects, and banking specialists.
Contribute to complex integration, automation, and member-experience challenges.
Help shape modern quality engineering practices, including AI-assisted development and testing.
Join a remote-first Canadian team focused on purposeful impact and technical excellence.

To apply: Please submit your resume and highlight your test automation expertise, financial services experience, banking platforms, and core banking integrations in your cover letter.
