- Test execution time
- Escaped defects
- Test effectiveness
- Drive root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives across engineering teams.
The Perfect Fit
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related discipline.
- 10+ years of experience in Software Quality Assurance.
- 3+ years of experience leading and managing QA teams.
- Strong hands-on expertise in Java-based automation frameworks such as Selenium, TestNG, RestAssured, or equivalent.
- Proven experience with API testing, automation architecture, and CI/CD integration.
- Experience testing enterprise SaaS products in the BFSI or fintech domain.
- Strong understanding of defect management, test planning, release management, and quality engineering best practices.
- Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
- Ability to balance technical leadership with people leadership in a fast-paced environment.
Your Edge Over the Rest
- Experience working with credit card platforms, issuer processors, lending platforms, or digital payment systems.

- Experience with performance, security, and compliance testing for financial applications.
- Prior experience working in a high-growth startup or product company.
The Problem We're Solving
Financial institutions today are held back by legacy systems that are slow, rigid, and expensive to scale. Launching or evolving credit, lending, and UPI products often takes months, requires heavy engineering effort, and limits the ability to create personalized customer experiences.
At the same time, customer expectations have changed - speed, flexibility, and tailored financial products are no longer optional. Banks and fintechs need infrastructure that allows them to innovate quickly, adapt continuously, and scale without friction.
This is where we come in.
At Vegapay, we are building modern, configurable fintech infrastructure that enables banks, NBFCs, and enterprises to design, launch, and manage credit and payment programs with ease. Our platform brings together flexibility, speed, and control - helping our partners unlock new growth opportunities and deliver personalized banking experiences at scale.
The Opportunity Ahead
- Build products that power the future of digital lending and payments.
- Lead quality for mission-critical financial infrastructure used by banks and fintechs.
- Work alongside talented engineers solving large-scale, real-world challenges.
- Shape the QA organization, engineering culture, and testing strategy as the company scales.
- Collaborate with modern engineering teams leveraging cloud-native technologies and AI-powered development tools.
- Enjoy a high-impact role with significant ownership, learning opportunities, and career growth.
