Limassol, Cyprus | Relocation

FinTech / Payments

Up to €7,000 net

We are looking for a hands-on QA / Quality Engineering Lead to build and lead the Quality Engineering function for a modern payments platform.

What you’ll do

• Build automation frameworks and test harnesses, primarily in Go
• Develop test infrastructure for distributed payment systems
• Build mocks, service virtualization and test data management tools
• Introduce AI-powered tools and agents for test generation, impact analysis, failure triage and root-cause investigation
• Implement quality gates and automated quality signals in CI/CD
• Define a risk-based quality strategy for APIs, payment flows, PSP integrations and customer journeys
• Lead and develop the QA/QE team
• Collaborate closely with Engineering, Product, Platform, Security, Risk and Compliance teams

What we’re looking for

Strong hands-on software engineering skills, ideally Go

Experience building automation frameworks, test infrastructure or internal developer tools

7+ years in QA / Quality Engineering, including leadership experience

Strong knowledge of the payments domain: PSPs, acquiring, 3DS/SCA, callbacks, retries, refunds, reversals, settlement and reconciliation

Strong API, integration and contract testing experience

Experience with distributed and asynchronous systems

SQL, logs, metrics and tracing for troubleshooting

CI/CD and Git-based development workflows

Experience using AI engineering tools with a disciplined approach to validation

Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

Nice to have: Kubernetes, cloud, event-driven architecture, observability, PCI DSS, PSD2/SCA, performance and resilience testing.

What we offer

• Work on modern FinTech and payment products
• Supportive and collaborative team
• Modern office in Limassol, Cyprus
• Professional growth and leadership opportunities
• Competitive compensation — up to €7,000 net
• Relocation support: flight tickets + accommodation for the first 2 weeks
• Visa support
