About the job
At Pepperstone, we began our journey in 2010, driven by our passion for trading the world's markets. Our team embraces curiosity and determination, striving to revolutionize the trading experience as a dynamic global fintech company. We pride ourselves on being digital, agile, and interconnected, all while maintaining a shared vision of enhancing trading.
We are committed to continuous improvement , both for our clients and ourselves. Our vibrant organizational culture is diverse, ever-evolving, global, and focused on delivering results. With over 700 team members across 12 regions and 9 time zones, we foster collaboration and innovation.
Product and Team Overview
This position is part of the engineering group focused on the Pepperstone Trading App within our Trading Experience (TREX) team. Our broader capabilities encompass Mobile Platform, integrations (connectors), and the trading platform (Centrum). Our department structure includes both Mobile Platform and Trading Experience teams.
The Trading App is a proprietary client for CFD trading on both iOS and Android, offering features such as portfolio monitoring, charts, watchlists, execution, margin management, and support for various account types (e.g., Razor / Standard). The app is designed to complement, not replace, MetaTrader and cTrader, establishing connections with Centrum and other back-office systems through various connectors while integrating services like SCA, Auth0, and Segment.
Our development process follows two-week Scrum cycles, with squads typically comprising a tech lead or release captain, around four developers, and two manual QA engineers, alongside a dedicated test automation track. Engineering outcomes must accurately reflect CFD realities, including margin, leverage, contract-based P&L, financing, and broker regulations specific to regions such as FCA, ASIC, and CySEC.
The Role
As a Senior Manual QA Engineer, you will be a key individual contributor to the Trading App. You will be responsible for defining the test strategy and ensuring comprehensive manual testing coverage. You will support fellow Middle (Manual) QA engineers with techniques and in-sprint prioritization while maintaining the release-readiness of our two-week Scrum work cycles.
Your goal will be to ensure that all features of the Trading App are shipped with agreed-upon manual coverage, including critical paths, regression tests, and exploratory findings that are well-documented, traceable, and linked to risk assessments.
