Requirements
Must:
We are looking for a System Test Analyst with proven experience in complex system upgrade or integration projects. You should have strong knowledge of system testing methodologies, tools, and best practices. Experience in testing interfaces (inbound/outbound), including file-based and API integrations, is essential. Familiarity with test management tools such as JIRA is important, as is the ability to write and execute SQL queries for data validation and backend testing.
Additionally, a solid understanding of collateral management, settlements, or post-trade processing in a financial services environment is required. Experience working with SmartStream or Algo Collateral systems is highly desirable, along with knowledge of financial instruments (e.g., derivatives, repos, securities lending) and the associated collateral workflows. Experience in Agile or hybrid project environments and an ISTQB or equivalent testing certification are also desirable.
Responsibilities
In this role, you will develop and execute comprehensive system test plans, test cases, and test scripts aligned with the upgrade scope. You will be responsible for validating the incoming and outgoing interfaces of the new SmartStream Algo system, ensuring data integrity and functional accuracy.
You will collaborate with business analysts, developers, and project managers to understand requirements and translate them into test scenarios. Additionally, you will perform system integration testing (SIT) and support user acceptance testing (UAT) phases. Your tasks will include identifying, documenting, and tracking defects using standard defect management tools, participating in test reviews, walkthroughs, and sign-off processes. You will ensure compliance with internal QA standards and regulatory requirements, as well as provide regular status updates and contribute to test reporting and metrics.
Description
This position is based in London on a hybrid working model (1-2 days per week) for an initial 3-month contract. The daily rate is competitive, and the role is inside IR35. We are seeking to enhance our existing Algo Collateral Management System as part of a strategic initiative. If you have the right skills and experience, we look forward to your application.
