Automation QA Engineer (Java)

Overview

Be a key player at the forefront of the digital assets movement, propelling your career to new heights! Join a dynamic and rapidly expanding company that values and rewards talent, initiative, and creativity. Work alongside one of the most brilliant teams in the industry.

The Pricing team runs a group of low-latency microservices that pull live quotes from top exchanges, merge them, and push out millions of price updates. We keep fast, accurate prices for 10,000+ markets — currencies, shares, indices, commodities, and crypto — so every chart and trade always shows the latest move. These fair, up-to-date prices drive our revenue, protect risk, and are vital to Capital.com’s success. We’re forming a backend-dedicated Automation QA function to own the health of our micro-services and prevent regressions before they ever reach production.

Your mission is to design and evolve a Java-based automation framework that exercises every pathway — gRPC calls, Kafka topics, WebSocket feeds and Postgres/Redis state — under production-like load. You will embed these test packs as quality gates in GitLab CI, spinning up containerised environments that deliver pass/fail signals and actionable metrics.
