Upgrade helps customers move in the right direction with affordable and responsible financial products. Since 2017, we’ve helped over 7.5 million customers access over $42 billion in consumer credit. With a relentless focus on improving our customers' financial well-being, we build products that put more money in their pocket and support their journey toward a better financial future. We’re backed by some of the most prominent technology investors and were most recently valued at $7.3B.

We’re consistently recognized for our collaborative and inclusive culture. Most recently, we were named one of the World’s Top Fintech Companies by CNBC, Best Places to Work by Built In, Best Places to Work by the San Francisco Business Times, America’s Greatest Workplaces by Newsweek, Best Startup Employer by Forbes, and Healthiest Employers by Phoenix Business Journal.

We’re looking for new team members who get excited about designing and delivering new and better products. Come join us and help build a better financial future for millions of people.

About the Role

Our QA-Core team exists so every engineering team at Upgrade can test their software quickly and trust the result. We are seeking a Senior QA Automation Engineer on the team to architect and build test automation infrastructure, tooling, and agentic solutions to increase engineering productivity. This is not a traditional product QA role - it’s a build role. You will work closely with our product teams to understand their automation requirements, design services from scratch, ship them to production clusters and own them.

This is a fully remote position open to candidates who are based in Canada. The base salary range for this position is between $150,000-$190,000 CAN. An individual’s actual base pay within this range will depend on a variety of factors, including job-related knowledge, skills, education, and experience.

Our Core Technologies Include

Java, Python, Kubernetes, Selenium WebDriver, Playwright, TestNG, Maven, Git, Jenkins, ArgoCD, SQL, Grafana, SumoLogic, Docker, Gatling, Claude Code, MCP server

What You’ll Do

- Design and own automation framework for functional and performance testing.

- Build agents to automate existing QA/testing workflows and remove engineering friction.

- Build the applications and services that automation depends on, deploy them, and operate them in production environments.

- Take prototypes all the way. Build demos in a timely manner, gather feedback from the teams who'd use it, and iterate through successive versions until it's hardened, monitored, and running with matured quality.

- Identify gap areas in existing frameworks and tools, and iterate toward solutions that close them.

What We Look For

- 5-7+ years building production software, with demonstrated depth across test infrastructure, test frameworks, and developer tooling, and working knowledge of platform engineering.

- Proven track record building agentic solutions and test automation frameworks from the ground up — designed, shipped, iterated on, and adopted as part of how other engineers work.

- Fluency with agentic coding tools as part of your daily workflow: ability to orchestrate multiple agents to execute, review agent-generated PRs.

- Hands-on experience with micro-services, Kubernetes and managing deployment lifecycle

- Ability to take an ambiguous problem statement to a scoped, defensible solution independently.

What We Offer You

- Competitive salary and stock option plan

- Paid coverage of medical, dental and vision insurance

- Flexible PTO

- Opportunities for professional growth and development

- Paid parental leave
