QA Software Engineer (Remote)

Own observability from a quality and reliability lens: error budgets, alerting thresholds, anomaly detection, and resilience testing. Instrument visual regression testing for our admin and hospital-facing UIs.

Develop and maintain test data management strategies and reusable test utilities. Establish defect reporting and triage workflows, and quality metrics/reporting, so the rest of engineering has a clear view of coverage and release readiness.

Collaborate with developers, product, and customer support to identify quality risks early, with a customer-first mindset toward the end-to-end experience. Work with developers to improve test patterns across the codebase, with a bias toward generated-and-reviewed over hand-written-from-scratch. Continuously evaluate new AI testing tools and integrate them where they create real leverage.

3+ years in a QA, SDET, or test automation role — automation-first, not manual-first

Active, demonstrated use of AI/LLM tools in your testing and reliability workflow (Claude, Copilot, Codex, or similar) — we will ask you about this in detail

Strong proficiency in Dart and Flutter testing (unit, widget, golden, and integration tests)

Experience testing Flutter Web (Playwright or similar) and/or Flutter Desktop applications strongly preferred

Comfort writing Python tests for FastAPI and gRPC services (pytest experience a big plus)

Experience building CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, or similar)

Comfort working across the stack — Flutter frontends, Python/gRPC backends, and third-party integrations

Experience with contract testing or API testing frameworks

Familiarity with production observability tools (Sentry, Datadog, or similar) and reliability concepts like SLOs and error budgets

Strong product intuition — able to identify the 10% of paths that carry 90% of the risk

Self-directed and comfortable building a function from zero, not inheriting one
