Role Overview
We are looking for a sharp, detail-obsessed QA Automation Engineer with hands-on Finacle 11x testing experience and strong automation skills. This is not a manual-testing-with-a-sprinkle-of-automation role. You will own test automation end-to-end across Finacle core banking modules, interfaces, and customizations. If you've only clicked through Finacle screens and called it testing, this isn't for you.
Mandatory Requirements
- Minimum 5 years of QA/Testing experience, with at least 3 years specifically on Finacle Core Banking (Infosys/Edgeverve)
-
Hands-on experience on Finacle 11x — functional flows, customization layers, and module behaviour
-
Proficiency in one of the following automation stacks (not familiarity — actual delivery experience):
- Selenium + Java (TestNG/JUnit, Maven/Gradle, Page Object Model)
-
Playwright + Node.js (TypeScript preferred, async/await patterns, fixture management)
-
Solid Banking domain knowledge — you understand what you're testing, not just how to test it
-
Experience testing Finacle Interfaces — Connect 24, Finacle Integrator, Custom & Product APIs
Testing Scope — What You'll Actually Do-
Design, build, and maintain automation frameworks for Finacle functional and regression testing
-
Test Finacle customizations — custom menus, batch jobs, MRT/Jasper reports, FI configurations, EOD/BOD processes
-
Validate Finacle integrations — API-level testing of inbound/outbound interfaces using tools like Postman, REST-assured, or Playwright's API testing layer
-
Write and execute SQL/PL/SQL validation scripts against Oracle DB for backend data verification
-
Build and maintain regression suites that can be triggered across release cycles without manual intervention
-
Perform defect triage with development and functional teams — you need to speak both languages
-
Contribute to test strategy, test plans, and UAT support directly with banking clients
Technical Skills-
Automation: Selenium + Java or Playwright + Node.js — framework ownership, not just script execution
-
Core Banking Testing: Finacle 11x modules — Deposits, Loans, GL, Payments, CRM, Admin (FINFADM/SSOADM)
-
Database: Oracle SQL, PL/SQL — writing validation queries, checking stored procedures, triggers
-
API Testing: REST/SOAP interface validation; Finacle Connect 24 / Finacle Integrator flows
-
Scripting: Unix shell scripting for test execution, log analysis, environment setup
-
CI/CD Integration: Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or equivalent — automation must run in pipelines, not just locally
-
Test Management: JIRA, Zephyr, ALM, or similar
Functional Knowledge-
Core banking functional flows: account lifecycle, transactions, interest processing, fee structures, EOD/BOD
-
Finacle CRM and Admin module testing
-
Regulatory and compliance-aware testing mindset (banking context)
-
Agile/Scrum delivery — sprint-based testing cycles, story-level acceptance criteria
-
Finacle certification from Infosys is a strong advantage
Nice to Have-
ISTQB certification (Foundation or Advanced)
-
Experience with performance testing tools (JMeter/Gatling) on Finacle environments
-
Exposure to Finacle on cloud/containerised deployments
-
Prior experience working in a banking client-facing delivery role
