Why You Should Apply
- Opportunity for professionals with both manual and automation testing experience to participate in a transition towards greater automation. Automation expertise is not required.
- As a senior team member, you will mentor and guide junior testers, positioning yourself for a leadership role within 1-2 years.
- Play a key role in shaping the automation strategy, experimenting with tools, and identifying test cases for future automation.
- Join a stable, global financial services company (non-bank) that has operated in Malaysia for 5 years, offering a locally regulated product suite.

What You Will Do
- Serve as the most senior Tester/QA in the team, responsible for manual test coverage, validating system behavior, identifying edge cases, and ensuring release quality across complex business workflows and system integrations.
- Translate business requirements into effective test strategies and scenarios, and perform functional, UAT, and regression testing.
- Guide junior testers and act as the liaison between testing and product & engineering teams to identify root causes for defects.
- Identify test cases suitable for automation and develop basic automated test scripts using tools such as Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright.
- Collaborate with DevOps and engineers to integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines, with support for strategy and scripting.
- This is not a people manager role; you will not directly manage junior testers. Leadership experience is not required, making this an ideal "in-between step" for senior testers seeking career advancement.

Staying safe while you apply

Never pay to apply, interview or accept an offer. ROLIVA never asks you for payment to apply to a job.
Apply only through the official “Apply on the employer’s site” button, on the employer’s own site, and check that a recruiter’s email uses that employer’s own domain rather than a free email address.
Be cautious of an offer made with no real interview, or pressure to decide quickly or share financial details early.
