  • Translate product, system, and technical requirements into effective manual and automated test strategies, plans, and cases.
  • Design, build, and scale robust test automation frameworks across API, web, and mobile layers.
  • Drive an automation-first testing approach by identifying automation opportunities and improving coverage, reliability, and execution speed.
  • Integrate automated testing into CI/CD pipelines to support fast, reliable, and scalable software delivery.
  • Ensure traceability between requirements, risks, and test cases in alignment with regulated development practices.
  • Define and execute functional, integration, system, and regression testing strategies.
  • Develop and maintain verification artifacts, including plans, protocols, and reports, in compliance with FDA 21 CFR, ISO 13485, IEC 62304, and related standards.
  • Support risk management activities including defect triage, impact assessments, and root-cause investigations.
  • Partner closely with engineers, product managers, architects, and quality teams to ensure requirements are testable and quality is embedded early in the development lifecycle.
  • Participate in design reviews to verify that design inputs and outputs meet quality and regulatory expectations.
  • Mentor other engineers on automation best practices, engineering discipline, and continuous improvement across testing frameworks, tools, and processes.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in software engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 6+ years of experience in software test engineering, verification, or quality engineering.
  • 2+ years of experience in regulated software development environments such as medical devices, digital health, or similar industries.
  • Strong expertise in software verification and validation, including defect management, requirements traceability, and risk-based testing.
  • Demonstrated experience designing and implementing automated testing across API, web, mobile, or similar platforms.
  • Experience working within modern CI/CD ecosystems such as GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, or similar tooling.
  • Strong programming or scripting skills in languages such as Python, JavaScript, or TypeScript for test automation and tooling.
  • Excellent analytical, communication, and documentation skills, with a collaborative and quality-focused mindset.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in medical devices or other regulated environments.
  • Hands-on experience with frameworks such as Playwright, Cypress, REST Assured, Jest, or similar tools.
  • Experience with BDD automated testing and integration with Jira test management tools such as Xray or Zephyr.
  • Understanding of cloud-native systems, APIs, microservices, and distributed architectures.

  • Exposure to compliance standards such as HIPAA and GDPR.
  • Experience with end-to-end testing involving both software and connected hardware components.
