More than 675,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own.\nWe started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.\nWe're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,300 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do. Read ouroperating principles to see it in full.\nHow you'll make impact\nAs the first Quality Engineer on the Risk Platform team, you’ll define what quality means for risk-critical systems, setting the standards, practices, and quality gates the team builds around. You’ll design and build automation, tooling, and infrastructure that help us ship changes quickly and safely across onboarding, transaction scoring, screening, and other risk decisioning flows. You’ll partner with Engineering and Product to establish reliable test data, isolated environments, contract testing, jurisdiction-specific coverage, and production verification for systems that make high-stakes decisions.\nOwn the automation and regression coverage that helps risk decisioning flows remain reliable across onboarding, transaction scoring, screening, and related systems.\n\nBuild stable test data and isolated environments that make automated testing deterministic and trustworthy.\n\nEstablish contract testing and integration coverage that catches service breakages before they reach release.\n\nImprove confidence in jurisdiction-specific behaviour by validating regional rules, thresholds, and regulatory requirements.\n\nDefine release-quality gates and post-release verification that confirm risk systems behave correctly in production.\n\nPartner with Engineering and Product to set acceptance criteria, support major client-facing projects, and raise the quality bar across the team.\n\nYou'll work from our Singapore office five days a week.\nWhat we're looking for\nEssentials\nExperience as an SDET or Software Engineer in Test, with strong programming skills and a track record of building test frameworks rather than only writing test cases.\n\nExperience testing large-scale distributed backend systems, including REST APIs, message-driven flows, and service-to-service integrations.\n\nHands-on experience with API and end-to-end automation and CI/CD.\n\nA strong understanding of reliable testing practices, including deterministic test data, isolated environments, and fast feedback.\n\nExperience using AI to accelerate testing, such as LLM-assisted test generation, coverage analysis, or failure triage, and an interest in testing ML models and LLM agents through evaluation, regression testing, and guardrails.\n\nComfort working in a self-directed Agile team, with excellent written and verbal communication.\n\nPreferred\nExperience with contract testing and managing test data and environments, or the ability to build these capabilities from the ground up.\n\nExposure to risk, fraud, payments, compliance, or another regulated financial domain.\n\nExperience testing systems with jurisdiction- or region-specific behaviour.\n\nExperience with contract testing tools such as Pact.\n\nExperience using AI or LLM tools in testing workflows, or testing ML- and LLM-based systems with evaluation harnesses and non-deterministic outputs.\n\nExperience with performance and latency testing for systems on the critical path.\n\nYou'll thrive here if\nYou own the outcome and you don't wait for permission to fix what's broken.\n\nYou're comfortable with ambiguity. Give you a problem, not a prescription, and you'll run with it.\n\nYou hold yourself to a high standard even when no one is watching. Quality and accountability aren't external expectations, they're internal ones.\n\nYou default to action. You'd rather course-correct in motion than wait for perfect clarity.\n\nYou value in-person collaboration and are happy being in the office five days a week.\n\nLearn more about your team\nRisk Platform builds the decisioning infrastructure that sits between Airwallex and every dollar that moves through it, protecting 150,000+ businesses moving over US$260 billion a year across 200+ countries and 90+ currencies, and deciding, often in milliseconds, whether a new signup is real, a payment is safe, or a login is who they claim to be. The hard part is that fraud evolves fast, and every decision carries a two-sided cost: miss an attack and money is lost, over-block and a legitimate business can't get paid. We build this with streaming pipelines processing billions of events a day, graph databases exposing coordinated fraud rings, ML models scoring every transaction, and LLM agents that triage alerts. You don't need a fintech background, just an appetite for adversarial systems problems where the scoreboard is measured in dollars. If you want to help scale one of the world's fastest-growing financial platforms safely, this is the team.\nApplicant Safety Policy: Fraud and Third-Party Recruiters\nTo protect you from recruitment scams, please be aware that Airwallex will not ask for bank details, sensitive ID numbers (i.e. passport), or any form of payment during the application or interview process.
