  • Work with compliance teams to ensure traceability from test case → defect → requirement.
Data Validation & Environment Management
  • Validate backend data flows across SOR, Domains, and Read Store using structured test data from TDP and synthetic fallback pools.
  • Automate test data provisioning, reservation, and cleanup processes with full auditability.
Collaboration & Governance
  • Participate in cross-vendor syncs, QA CoE reviews, and scorecard evaluations.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to framework enhancements and standardization.
Required Skills & Experience
  • 5+ years of experience in backend or mainframe automation.
  • Hands-on experience with Automation Anywhere, IBM HATS, or similar tools.
  • Proficiency in Java and scripting for CLI-based automation.
  • Strong understanding of Robot Framework, metadata-driven execution, and YAML/JSON test suite generation.
  • Experience with CI/CD tools: Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps.
  • Familiarity with test data management tools like TDP and synthetic data provisioning.
  • Knowledge of compliance frameworks: SOX, PCI, FFIEC.
Preferred Qualifications
