SDET (Cards)

Our client is seeking a senior Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) focused on Cards to design, implement, and maintain test automation that ensures robust, scalable delivery of card-related systems. You will work closely with cross-functional engineering teams to embed automated functional, integration, and performance testing into the development lifecycle and CI/CD pipelines. The role emphasizes hands-on coding in C# /.NET, building test frameworks for UI and APIs, supporting REST API migrations from legacy SOAP/WCF services, and validating system resilience through load and performance testing.

Responsibilities

• Create test case scenarios for improving test coverage using C# and .NET.
• Design, build, and maintain automation frameworks for UI, API, integration, and performance/load testing.
• Develop and execute automated test suites to validate functional and non-functional requirements.
• Develop comprehensive test strategies for REST API migrations from legacy SOAP/WCF services.
• Perform end-to-end testing of API workflows, including authentication and authorization flows.
• Validate OpenAPI/Swagger specifications against actual API implementations.
• Test adapter layer functionality between REST APIs and legacy SOAP/WCF services, ensuring backward compatibility during migration phases.
• Validate file-based interface translations and data integrity across systems.
• Perform regression testing on existing SCM and card-related functionalities throughout migration phases.
• Conduct integration testing with internal and external systems, including Presidio IVR systems.
• Validate OAuth 2.0 and MFA implementations across services.
• Integrate test automation into CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar tools.
• Design and run load and performance tests to validate system resilience and scalability using tools such as JMeter or Gatling or LoadRunner.
• Create and maintain tools for test data generation, mocking, dependency control, and system observability.
• Collaborate with software development teams to promote testability, shift-left practices, TDD, and clean code architecture.
• Participate in code reviews for application and test code, providing actionable feedback on coverage and quality.
• Mentor engineers and QA team members in automation practices and support a culture of test-driven development.
• Instrument tests and systems for observability and monitoring to support debugging and performance analysis.
• Maintain and evolve automation to work reliably in containerized and cloud environments (Docker, Kubernetes, Azure/AWS/GCP).

Requirements

• 4+ years of experience in software test automation, SDET, or development roles.
• Strong programming skills in C# /.NET or a similar object-oriented language.
• Create and implement test case scenarios using C# and .NET to improve test coverage across application and integration flows.
• Hands-on experience building automation frameworks for UI testing using Cypress, Selenium or Playwright.
• Hands-on experience building API automation using tools such as Postman, REST Assured, SoapUI, or similar.
• Strong understanding of REST, SOAP, and WCF protocols and experience testing integrations between modern and legacy services.
• Experience testing OAuth 2.0 authentication flows and familiarity with MFA implementations.
• Knowledge of OpenAPI/Swagger specifications and experience with API documentation, contract validation, and validating specifications against actual API implementations.
• Experience with unit testing frameworks such as NUnit, MSTest, or xUnit.
• Hands-on experience building load and performance tests using JMeter or Gatling or LoadRunner.
• Experience integrating automation into CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or similar..
• Experience working in Agile or Scrum development environments.
• Familiarity with containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes and cloud platforms such as Microsoft Azure, AWS, or GCP.
• Experience participating in code reviews and providing feedback on test coverage and quality.

Nice to Have

• Background in cards, payments, fintech, health tech, or other regulated industries.
• Strong debugging skills in distributed system environments.
