Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa PayJustNow Full time R120 000 - R180 000 per year

Overview

At PayJustNow, we're reimagining how South Africans pay, interest-free, instantly, and on their terms. As part of the Weaver Fintech Group, we operate with the speed of a startup and the scale of a market leader.

We're building a full-stack fintech ecosystem that's changing the way people access, use, and trust financial services.

We're looking for a Senior Quality Engineer who will own the quality and automation strategy across web and mobile. If you're passionate about building robust frameworks, enabling teams, and ensuring every release meets the highest standards, we want to meet you.

What You'll Do

  • Own the quality and automation strategy for web and mobile. Design it, build it, and guide teams toward long-term, shared ownership of quality.
  • Build and maintain automated test suites using tools like Cypress, Playwright, Appium, or Detox, and establish patterns others can easily adopt.
  • Integrate automated and quality checks into CI/CD so failures surface immediately and consistently.
  • Eliminate flaky tests and improve reliability, establishing long-term quality metrics and standards.
  • Work directly with developers to ensure features are built with testability and maintainability from day one.
  • Design reliable test data strategies, deterministic fixtures, synthetic data, seeded environments, and isolated test states.
  • Use AI tools to accelerate test creation, debugging, and analysis.
  • Maintain clear, minimal documentation and build quality guidance that supports team-wide adoption.

What You Bring

  • Proven track record improving quality and automation for production web and mobile apps used at scale.
  • Strong JavaScript/TypeScript skills; able to write clean, robust test code with minimal overhead.
  • Experience building or maintaining durable quality or automation frameworks that teams could contribute to and evolve.
  • Hands-on experience running tests on BrowserStack or similar device testing services.
  • Experience designing or maintaining test data management setups (fixtures, seeded environments, synthetic data).
  • Familiarity with device farms such as BrowserStack, Bitrise, or Firebase Test Lab.
  • Experience interpreting performance signals or adding performance checks within automation pipelines.
  • Experience with BDD/Gherkin, test strategy definition, or establishing quality engineering practices from scratch is a plus.
  • You've enabled developers through pairing, training, and practical guidance that raised overall engineering quality.
  • You code with AI tools as part of your daily workflow.

Why Join Us?

  • Build products that millions of South Africans use every day.
  • Join a high-growth fintech that's scaling fast and thinking big.
  • Work in a remote-first, impact-driven culture that values autonomy and collaboration.
  • Be part of a team that's engineering the future of payments in Africa.
