Not your Typical Senior SDET role

Not your Typical Senior SDET role
We\’re looking for an enthusiastic and driven Software Developer in Test to join our dynamic and growing team. At Navro, we value diversity and are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels supported and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives.
At Navro, we\’re not just offering a job – we\’re offering an adventure alongside a great team!
Who We Are
We are transforming payments for global platforms and e-commerce businesses. As the world\’s first payments curation platform, we simplify cross-border transactions by uniting best-in-class infrastructure into a seamless ecosystem, enabling businesses to scale and operate effortlessly across borders. Cross-border workforce payments are slow, expensive, and outdated. We can\’t be. Businesses rely on us to pay their people accurately and on time – contractors, freelancers, and employees across the globe. When we say we\’ll deliver, failure isn\’t an option. If we don\’t do what we said we would, people don\’t get paid – not just a transaction delayed, but real workers left without wages. That means a developer in Argentina missing their paycheck, a freelancer in the Philippines unable to pay rent, or a contractor in Poland unable to get to work. No excuses. No passengers. No tolerance for politics or mediocrity.
The role
As a Senior SDET, you will be responsible for designing, co-developing, and automating software test plans and test cases to ensure the quality and reliability of our services. You will drive continuous improvement through experimentation, retrospection, and innovation, keeping our testing processes ahead of the curve.
Our backend is developed predominantly on Java with SpringBoot and SpringCloud, and our frontend in Next.JS. We are deploying to K8S with GitHub Actions and ArgoCD on AWS, but remain somewhat cloud agnostic as we are pursuing a multi-cloud strategy.
Requirements
To be successful in this role, you:

  • Demonstrate strong leadership skills to mentor and guide team members in testing methodologies and best practices
  • Must have strong programming skills with a solid knowledge of Java and ideally JS
  • Must have knowledge of software testing methodologies like Behavior-Driven Development and testing principles, such as functional testing, component testing, integration testing, regression testing, and performance testing
  • Have practical experience with Contract Testing using Pact
  • Are very familiar with performance & load testing tools
  • Be an advocate of the need to engage testing early in the feature definition process
  • Can mentor engineering teams, assist them by identifying testing goals and needs, and drive a culture of knowledge sharing in order to close knowledge gaps
  • Can help foster an environment of psychological safety that enables team members to thrive. This is very important to us, as we are a highly diverse group made up of people from many different ethnicities, religious beliefs, and gender identities
  • Experience in Payments or a FinTech industry would be nice to have but not a strong requirement

Personal Attributes:

  • Ability to mentor and guide team members
  • Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment with the capacity to work both independently and collaboratively
  • High degree of empathy and situational awareness

Why Navro?

  • Lead and Shape the Future: This is your chance to build and grow a market from zero to one
  • Make Real Impact: Your decisions will directly shape Navro\’s growth journey
  • Innovative Environment: Be at the forefront of Fintech innovation and payments disruption
  • Career-Defining Role: This isn\’t just another job. It\’s a legacy

Ready to Build Something Big?
This is your chance to leave your mark. If you\’re ready to lead, build, and grow with the intensity that only startups offer, we want to hear from you.
Apply now and be part of Navro\’s journey to revolutionise payments with us.
