π’ About MobiKwik
MobiKwik Official Website is an Indian fintech company offering digital financial services across payments, investments and consumer credit. Its investor-relations website describes MobiKwik as a publicly listed fintech platform with more than 186.6 million users and 4.79 million merchants, with its business spanning user and merchant payment networks.
MobiKwik’s corporate office is located in Sector 53, Gurugram, making this opportunity particularly relevant for candidates already based in the Delhi-NCR region.
For QA professionals, working in a fintech product environment can provide exposure to payment workflows, mobile applications, APIs, transaction processing, security-sensitive functionality and high-volume user journeys.
β Why This Role Is Good for Experienced QA Professionals
This position is a strong opportunity for testers who want to progress beyond traditional manual testing toward a broader SDET/Quality Engineering role. The JD combines automation, manual testing, API testing, mobile testing and framework development.
At the 3β7 year level, candidates can demonstrate ownership of automation suites, framework improvements, regression strategy and quality processes rather than simply executing predefined test cases.
The product-based environment is another advantage. Instead of working only on short-term client assignments, product QA professionals can gain deeper exposure to continuous releases, production-quality issues, user journeys and long-term test architecture.
MobiKwik’s careers page also highlights opportunities for learning and growth, competitive compensation and employee stock-option programs.
π οΈ Skills Required
Candidates should be comfortable with:
- β Java: OOP, Collections, Exception Handling, Strings, interfaces, inheritance and basic coding.
- π§ͺ Selenium: WebDriver, locators, waits, Page Object Model, browser handling, screenshots and parallel execution.
- π± Appium: Mobile automation fundamentals, Android/iOS concepts, capabilities, gestures and device/application handling.
- π API Testing: REST APIs, HTTP methods, status codes, authentication, headers, JSON validation and negative testing.
- ποΈ Framework Design: POM, reusable utilities, test-data management, configuration, reporting and CI/CD integration.
- π Testing Fundamentals: STLC, defect lifecycle, regression, smoke, sanity, integration and risk-based testing.
- π Agile/Scrum: Sprint ceremonies, story refinement, acceptance criteria and collaboration with developers/product teams.
Knowledge of SQL, Git, Jenkins, Maven/Gradle, TestNG/JUnit, Rest Assured, Postman and CI/CD pipelines would further strengthen your profile.
π― Expected MobiKwik Interview Rounds
Recent candidate-reported MobiKwik SDET-II interviews provide useful insight into the likely process. One reported process involved three rounds, covering SQL, API mocking/architecture and subsequent technical evaluation. Another SDET interview report mentioned Java/DSA, SQL, API testing, Postman, Rest Assured, Git, testing approach, STLC and logs/Grafana. These are candidate experiences, so the exact process can change by team and hiring requirement.
A likely process for this position is:
- Round 1 β Technical Screening: Testing fundamentals, SQL, Java, Selenium and project experience.
- Round 2 β Advanced Technical: Automation framework design, API testing, Appium, debugging and real-world QA scenarios.
- Round 3 β Technical/Managerial: Architecture, ownership, Agile practices, production issues and communication.
Candidates should expect scenario-based questions, particularly around how they designed frameworks, handled flaky tests and investigated production defects.
π° Expected Salary Range
The job announcement does not disclose an official salary range. Third-party salary data for MobiKwik’s SDET-II role shows reported compensation around βΉ13β18 LPA overall, while specific 4β6-year submissions include approximately βΉ11β13 LPA and βΉ14β16 LPA. The data has limited confidence, so it should be treated only as a market reference.
For a strong 3β7 year SDET-2 candidate, a reasonable target could be around βΉ12β20 LPA, with exceptional candidates potentially negotiating higher depending on automation depth, product experience and current compensation. This is an estimate, not an official MobiKwik salary band.
π Preparation Tips
π₯ Selenium: Practice creating a framework using Page Object Model, TestNG, Maven and reusable utilities. Be ready to explain how you handle dynamic elements and flaky tests.
π± Appium: Revise desired capabilities, locators, gestures, device handling, app installation and mobile-specific test scenarios.
π API: Prepare Postman/Rest Assured questions around authentication, chaining APIs, JSON validation, response-time checks and negative scenarios.
β Java: Practice coding questions involving Strings, Arrays, Collections, HashMap and basic OOP.
ποΈ SQL: Prepare joins, subqueries, GROUP BY, HAVING and queries that validate transaction data.
π³ Fintech Testing: Think through wallet recharge, UPI/payment failure, refund, transaction status, duplicate transactions and payment reconciliation scenarios.
π Resume Tips
Your resume headline should clearly position you as SDET-2 | Automation Testing | Selenium | Appium | Java | API Testing.
Put Selenium, Appium, Java, API Testing, TestNG/JUnit and Framework Design near the top of your skills section. If you have worked on a product-based application, highlight it prominently.
Avoid generic statements such as βResponsible for automation testing.β Instead, write achievement-focused bullets such as: βDesigned and maintained a Selenium-TestNG automation framework covering 300+ regression scenarios and integrated execution into CI/CD.β
For mobile experience, mention the platform, device coverage and automation scope. For API testing, mention Rest Assured/Postman, number of APIs automated and measurable improvements.
