About Nivelo:
Everyone deserves to be paid reliably.
Nivelo’s mission is to provide safe and instantaneous money movement for everyone. Our ambition is large - disrupting a $20 Trillion infrastructure built 50 years ago. Our impact is even bigger - securing the most common and most important payment for most people in the world - their paycheck. We're reinventing the way businesses and individuals move money.
Nivelo is the integrated payments platform that payroll brands use to move money quickly, digitally and securely to guarantee every dollar is delivered on time.
We were recently featured in J.P. Morgan's Payments Unbound Magazine as one of the top five fintechs making waves in NYC's booming payments ecosystem.
The company is backed by investors such as FirstMark Capital, Parameter Ventures, and Anthemis that have taken countless companies to IPO (think Shopify and Airbnb). Investors also include experienced operators in the payment and risk space, including the COO of Stripe, Founder of Tenable, and senior operators at Chime, Stripe, Alloy, and Justworks.

About you:
You are:
- A Test Automation Expert: Deep experience designing and building automated test suites and frameworks, with strong coding skills in TypeScript/JavaScript and experience with modern testing tools (e.g., Playwright, Cypress, Jest).
- Rigorous and Detail-Oriented: You think in edge cases and failure modes: the rounding errors, race conditions, retries, boundary conditions, cutoff times, and bank holidays that others may miss. When money is on the line, "probably fine" isn't good enough.
- Deeply User- and Domain-Curious: You're curious about who uses our product and why. You think from the user's perspective first: payroll and treasury professionals under real pressure. You want to learn how ACH, wires, and NACHA rules actually work, because that's where the edge cases live.
- AI-Native: You already work alongside coding agents every day. You know where AI-generated code and tests go wrong (tautological assertions, tests quietly edited until they pass, logic that looks right but isn't) and you build systems that catch it.
- Quality-Obsessed but Pragmatic: You raise the quality bar for the whole team without becoming a bottleneck, and you know the difference between coverage that matters and coverage for its own sake.
- A Proactive Problem Solver: You don't wait for instructions—you identify gaps, propose solutions, and take ownership of results.
- Flexible: You’re excited to dive in where needed to meet our clients’ needs.
- A Clear Communicator: Whether it's explaining the root cause of a flaky test to an engineer or communicating risk during a payroll incident, you keep stakeholders aligned and informed.
- Operationally Reliable: You thrive under pressure, stay calm during incidents, and prioritize rapid, effective solutions.
