We began as a digital mortgage broker and became Canada's leading direct-to-consumer online lending platform. Through Nesto Cloud, our B2B, cloud-native, end-to-end mortgage technology platform, we empower financial institutions, credit unions, and commercial real estate lenders with intelligent automation, real-time compliance, and seamless integrations across the full lending lifecycle. Together with CMLS Financial, we form the Nesto Group: more than $73 billion CAD in residential and commercial mortgages under management, 1,300+ team members, 12 offices across Canada.\nOur Track Record\nHypergrowth: Deloitte Fast 50 - 3 years in a row\nTech community credibility: TechTO Canadian Rocketship 2025\nIndustry leadership: CLA Lending Company of the Year - 4 consecutive years\nTalent magnet: CMP Top Mortgage Employer 2025\nWhy Join Us\nThe mortgage industry runs on legacy systems, slow processes, and information nobody can see. We are changing that by building better technology. nesto is a place for builders, problem-solvers, and curious minds - people who move fast, embrace innovation, and believe we're stronger together. This is the place for you if you trust your skills and want to build technology that reshapes an entire industry. An entrepreneurial culture built on trust, speed, uncomfortable ambition, being stronger together, and a relentless obsession with our clients. We also do not think building with AI belongs to engineers. Every function here is expected to automate its own repetitive work, and you will have support to do it.\nWork Location and Time Zone\nThis is a remote-first role open to candidates anywhere in Canada. We strongly prefer candidates who can work Eastern Time hours. If you are based elsewhere in Canada and have worked Eastern hours before, we still want to hear from you.\nWhy This Role Exists\nWe're delivering major platform programs for our large enterprise partners. This role is focused on building automation coverage for these initiatives, shaping end-to-end quality as the programs scale.\nWe already have a strong automation suite and deep in-house expertise at the staff level. This is not a rebuild from zero. It's about taking what works, adapting it to a platform being reshaped for these programs, and wiring it into CI/CD so quality keeps pace with delivery speed. We move fast and iterate, but we don't ship manual workarounds - we invest in repeatable, scalable structure.\nYou'd be the automation specialist within our delivery team, working closely with our staff automation developers as expert sounding boards, setting the approach and advising us on how this should be done. You can expect roughly a 70/30 split between hands-on coding and collaboration, depending on the project stage.\nWhat Success Looks Like\nWithin 90 days, a working test automation framework is running, with 60-80% of critical test scenarios automated, running, and actively relied on by the team.\nWithin six months, automation runs in the CI/CD pipeline on pull requests, mirroring what exists for our core platform.\nYou've adapted and extended the existing automation framework rather than rebuilding from scratch - leveraging the suite and expertise already in place.\nYou make sure quality is understood beyond sprint-by-sprint testing, with a focus on ensuring all the pieces work together end to end.\nWhat You Will Be Doing\nArchitect, build, and maintain scalable automated test suites in Playwright, using design patterns that keep them maintainable over time.\nPartner with architects, developers, product managers, and our Staff QA Automation Developers across the SDLC - to clarify requirements and define clear acceptance criteria early, and to raise QA practices across the organization.\nDrive quality across UI and API testing, using monitoring signals, incident reviews, and customer feedback to find improvements.\nWork with Delivery leadership, stakeholders, and partners to prioritize automation coverage.\nIntegrate automated testing into the CI/CD pipeline so coverage runs continuously.\nWork with product managers to define comprehensive test plans from product and design specifications (URDs, PRDs, HLDs).\nPlay a key role in supporting User Acceptance Testing (UAT) for key projects, for example when we integrate new partners or clients.\nLeverage AI to speed up how you build and maintain automated tests, then share what works with the team.\nOwn quality beyond test execution - improve processes, documentation, and team workflows, and standardize what works into repeatable practices.\nReview and run manual test cases in our test management tooling, validate features against test plans, and fold the right scenarios into the automated regression suite.\nWhat You Bring\n5+ years of QA experience testing SaaS or cloud applications, with a deep understanding of the full SDLC and how Quality Engineering fits into development.\n2+ years of hands-on test automation framework experience with Playwright, Cypress, or similar, including authoring and maintaining end-to-end (E2E) test suites.\nA strong background in TypeScript and/or Go is required, and experience with MySQL or similar relational databases is a plus.\nAn automation-first track record: automated coverage over manual-only QA, with reliability built into the CI/CD pipeline rather than bolted on.\nFull-stack testing across UI and API layers, including API validation with tools like Postman.\nTest architecture and scalable design expertise, using patterns such as Page Object Model, data factories, and separation of concerns.\nAgile fluency, comfort with rapid release cycles, and familiarity with test management platforms like Allure TestOps.\nInitiative and a point of view. You arrive with a plan rather than waiting to be told what to do.\nNice-to-Have\nHands-on AI initiative: you have built agents or applications that made testing meaningfully faster\nYou turn requirements into genuinely useful test coverage, not checkbox test cases\nExperience with MySQL or similar relational databases\nFamiliarity with test management platforms like Allure TestOps\nExperience in SaaS, fintech, banking, insurance, or other financial services environments\nThis Role Might Fit You If\nYou have stood up automation from nothing on a program already in flight, and found that energizing rather than daunting\nYou would rather adapt and evolve a working system than rebuild it to your own taste\nYou are comfortable telling leadership \"here is what we should do and here is how\" early on, not a year in\nYou enjoy being in the room with business and delivery people, not only engineers, and can explain why a test gap matters in business terms\nYou want to shape quality strategy, not only write test code\nWhat This Role Is Not\nThis is not a heads-down coding role. If you want to stay out of product and business conversations, this will frustrate you.\nThis is not a role focused mainly on executing manual test cases.\nThis is not a role for someone who prefers a reactive, waterfall approach and waits for development to finish before getting involved.\nThis is not a role for someone who prefers to work in isolation and doesn't want to improve broader team workflows, documentation, or quality processes.\nThis is not a role for someone who isn't ready to bring AI tools into their daily work.\nInterview Process\nRecruiter Screen (30 min): An intro call to learn about your background and give you a real picture of the role.\nDiscovery Call (45 min): A conversation with the hiring manager to dig into your experience and assess mutual fit.\nTake-Home Assignment: A chance to showcase your skills through a practical exercise relevant to the role.\nCase Study Interview (60 min): A deep dive into your submission, with time to get to know some team members and ask about the role and company.\nFinal Interview (60 min): You'll meet with the recruiter and two additional stakeholders for a final conversation before a decision is made.\nOffer Stage: Pending successful background, criminal, and reference checks, you'll receive a formal offer to join the team.\nWhat We Offer\nComprehensive Health Coverage: Top-tier extended health, dental, and vision coverage, featuring 100% drug coverage.\nHealth & Wellness Spending Account: A $1,500 combined annual flex fund for things like gym memberships or extra medical needs.\nGenerous Paid Time Off: 4 weeks of vacation plus 8 personal floater days.\nRetirement Savings: Access to a group RRSP/DPSP plan featuring competitive company-matching contributions.\nTelemedicine Services: Access via Dialogue and coverage for licensed practitioner services.\nFamily Support: Robust Maternity and Parental Leave Top-Up programs.\nDiversity and Inclusion\nAt nesto, we believe that creativity and collaboration are the result of a diverse team. We are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and we strongly encourage women, people of color, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and individuals with disabilities to apply. We are committed to creating a workplace that is inclusive and welcoming to all.","description_format":"text","description_chars":9225,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Gym membership","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Canada","iso":"CA","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Mortgage Lending & Brokers"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-12T11:18:26Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":39,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.654,"p_room":0.6,"age_days":61,"expected_fill_days":74,"reasons":["conf:1","win:late","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-13T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nesto-senior-qa-automation-developer-integrations-3","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nesto-senior-qa-automation-developer-integrations-3.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-13T19:39:38Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":30040,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":179546},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=179546"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnesto-senior-qa-automation-developer-integrations-3"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnesto-senior-qa-automation-developer-integrations-3"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnesto-senior-qa-automation-developer-integrations-3"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nesto-senior-qa-automation-developer-integrations-3\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnesto-senior-qa-automation-developer-integrations-3"}]}
