We’re looking for a QA Engineer to join our Data and AI Engineering team. This is a mid-senior role for someone who can own test planning and execution independently for designing test strategies, building automated regression coverage, and safeguarding release quality without needing close supervision.
You'll work across our applications and platforms to test features end-to-end, build and maintain automated test suites, and dig into bugs at the browser and API level. We're a life sciences consultancy, so documentation and traceability matter as much as catching the bug itself .
We welcome QA engineers who take as much pride in rigorous, well-documented testing as in finding the edge cases.

About the profile
Responsibilities
What You’ll Do
- Own test strategy end-to-end for features and releases as defining scope from specs and user stories, designing test plans, and executing them systematically with minimal oversight.
- Build and maintain automated regression suites (Selenium, Playwright, or Cypress) integrated into CI, plus API-level tests (Postman, pytest + requests) that validate endpoints independently of the UI.
- Reproduce and document bugs at the request/response level using browser developer tools (Network, Console, Elements), including issues tied to sessions, tokens, and cookies in authenticated flows.
- Raise, triage, and track defects with clear severity classification, and drive them through to resolution.
- Coordinate regression testing cycles and UAT with business stakeholders ahead of releases.
- Produce clear documentation like process runbooks, incident reports (root cause, impact, timeline, resolution), and test strategy/spec documents ready for stakeholder sign-off.
- Collaborate with developers, product, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into testable, traceable acceptance criteria.
- Apply the traceability and version-control discipline expected of QA work in a regulated environment.

- Documentation: strong written communication across process docs, incident reports, and test strategy/spec documents, with attention to traceability and version control.
- Demonstrated track record owning test plans across multiple projects to be able to point to real examples of taking a feature or release from requirements to test sign-off with minimal guidance.
- Team-first mindset and experience in agile environments (Scrum or Kanban).
