About the position

As an Automation QA Engineer at Deutsche Bank, you will play a crucial role in the development and maintenance of applications that are integral to the bank's operations, particularly within the Post Trade stack in Rates and Credit. This suite of applications is responsible for Trade Capture, Trade Lifecycle processing, and data distribution, serving as the backbone for Fixed Income trading. Your primary focus will be on enhancing the test automation infrastructure, improving test designs, and reducing test automation debt. You will collaborate with a feature team to ensure end-to-end delivery in a complex system that involves multiple inbound and outbound interfaces. In this position, you will be tasked with designing an automated testing approach for a platform with various integrations. You will implement changes to the automated testing infrastructure, including continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) processes. Your responsibilities will also include designing test cases and automation using Java and frameworks such as Junit5, Cucumber, Selenide, Spring, and Rest Assured. While automation will be a significant part of your role, you will also engage in manual feature testing to maintain a close connection with the platform and its end users. Additionally, you will coordinate user acceptance testing (UAT), set up testing environments, and track issue resolution, ensuring that the platform meets user needs and expectations. Deutsche Bank values a diverse and inclusive environment that fosters innovation and collaboration. The bank offers a hybrid working model, allowing for flexibility in work arrangements, and is committed to corporate social responsibility. You will have access to a range of educational resources, volunteer programs, and a strong network of communities of practice that connect you with colleagues who share similar interests and values.
