Some 20,000 financial services and healthcare organizations, from the world's largest companies to small and mid-market firms, rely on SS&C for expertise, scale, and technology. Join our Quality Infrastructure team as a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) and help build the AI-assisted automation platforms that product development teams rely on every day. You will design, build, and maintain the frameworks, CI pipelines, and reporting systems that power end-to-end quality for the SS&C Advent Eze investment platform — and you will be a primary driver of how AI-assisted engineering practices reach the scrum teams we serve. We welcome candidates new to finance. Overview: The SS&C Advent™ solution is a born-in-the-cloud investment solution that supports start-up, emerging equity-, and event-focused hedge funds' full investment process in a single, unified platform through a secure web browser interface. The Quality Infrastructure team builds and operates the automation and quality tooling that product development scrum teams depend on. Our customers are the developers, testers, and scrum teams who add tests, consume dashboards, and rely on healthy CI to ship confidently. As an SDET on this team, you will build and improve the platforms and services behind that experience rather than writing product tests directly. Your Impact Quality Infrastructure is a shared platform team, so your work reaches well beyond your own commits. The frameworks, pipelines, and dashboards you build are used every day by every product scrum team — which means when you build AI-assisted capabilities into them (test scaffolding, failure triage, flaky-test diagnosis, smarter alerting), you change how the entire engineering organization works, not just how one team tests. You will have real latitude to introduce AI-assisted engineering practices here, and a direct hand in setting the standards other engineers follow. What You'll Do Use AI-assisted tooling (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) as a routine part of development, debugging, and test authoring — and help establish effective, well-judged practices for its use across the engineering organization. Build AI-assisted capabilities into the quality platforms product teams consume test-generation scaffolding, automated failure categorization (environment vs. code vs. flaky), root-cause summarization, and intelligent alert routing that reduces noise and surfaces signal. Develop, extend, and maintain automation frameworks used across multiple scrum teams (API-level and UI-level). Build and maintain CI pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins) that execute end-to-end integration and regression suites, and reduce feedback-loop time through smarter test selection and prioritization. Troubleshoot CI failures, flaky tests, and environment issues; support product teams in unblocking their workflows. Contribute to test-reporting and alerting infrastructure: data pipelines, dashboards (Grafana), and integrations (PagerDuty, Slack,Teams). Collaborate with product scrum teams to understand their testing needs and translate them into framework features, CI improvements, and AI-assisted workflows they will adopt. Participate in code reviews focusing on reliability, maintainability, and developer experience — including reviewing AI-generated contributions with appropriate scrutiny. Doc
