QA-Engineer, Quality-Engineer, Automation-Testing Jobs

Role Overview

PerfectServe is seeking a Senior QA Engineer to ensure the quality, reliability, and safety of PerfectServe’s products through rigorous manual and automated testing. As a senior individual contributor, you will own complex work end-to-end, raise the quality bar, and mentor those around you.

The QA team is 100% manual today. This hire will build the test automation capability from the ground up and, over time, will be the sole QA engineer on the team, owning quality independently while working closely with developers.

In a healthcare SaaS environment where reliability and security affect patient care, this role is held to a high standard. Success means consistently demonstrating the responsibilities below, combining technical depth with collaboration, communication, and sound judgment, rather than excelling in any one area alone.

• Document defects clearly
• Write automation scripts
• Apply API testing tools
• Integrate tests in CI/CD
• Build test frameworks
• Conduct performance testing
• Implement security testing

Architecture & Design

• Understand system under test
• Participate in design reviews
• Design test architectures
• Author test strategy docs

Delivery & Execution

• Execute assigned test plans
• Write own test plans
• Manage test coverage
• Manage QA environment integrity
• Coordinate release readiness
• Own QA for full feature

Quality & Standards

• Follow test standards
• Ensure HIPAA test coverage
• Define quality metrics
• Improve QA processes
• Validate app/prod parity

Collaboration

• Participate in ceremonies
• Partner with dev engineers
• Collaborate with product team
• Partner across squads

Communication

• Report defect status
• Communicate test results
• Write test documentation
• Present quality metrics

Leadership & Mentorship

• Learn QA best practices
• Support junior QA engineers
• Mentor automation skills

Strategy & Vision

• Understand release goals
• Contribute to QA planning
• Shape test automation strategy

Qualifications

Required

• 5+ years of professional QA engineering experience, including ownership of complex work end-to-end.
• Hands-on experience executing test cases and documenting defects clearly.
• Experience with test automation, API testing, and CI/CD integration.
• Experience building test frameworks from the ground up.
• Python for test automation.
• Hands-on experience building UI/end-to-end automation with Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress.
• Understanding of QA methodologies and quality metrics.
• Strong written and verbal communication; able to present status and risk to stakeholders.
• Self-starter who can own QA independently, while still collaborating closely with devs and speaking up on quality.

Preferred

• Experience testing in a HIPAA/HITRUST-regulated healthcare environment.
• Performance and security testing experience.

Nice to Have

• Twilio, telephony/VoIP, or call center software experience, especially automating real call flows.
• Jira and Zephyr.
• AWS, plus any Kubernetes or Argo CD exposure.
• Performance testing with any tool (the team uses Locust)

Why This Role

Your Role

This is not a “run the test plan someone else wrote” role. Until now, engineers have checked their own releases. The product has grown into a web app, connections to outside systems and AI chat features, so each release now needs someone who can say whether it’s ready, with evidence. New federal Medicaid rules start January 1, 2027, and the team is building tools that help states keep eligible people covered through them. You’ll start by building the automated tests and the ready-to-ship check for the releases closest to that date. It’s a hands-on, senior seat with no direct reports. You decide where the risk is, which team needs you most, and what “done” means.

You’ll:

• Test strategy and automation

  • Decide where the product is most likely to break and what gets tested first

  • Build end-to-end journeys, a smoke suite on every build, and integration tests in code engineers review and keep

  • Pick the tools and run everything in GitHub Actions

• Release verdicts

  • Give engineers a “ready / not ready” note before each release: what passed, what failed, what nobody checked

  • Write a plain-language summary for non-engineers of what’s verified, and push back on a risky date with evidence

• Testing inside delivery teams

  • Sit with customer-facing teams and test features while they’re being built, moving between teams as workload shifts

  • Set a shared definition of “done” and coach engineers on testing their own work

• Web app, services and outside systems

  • Run functional, regression and accessibility tests across browsers and devices, and check each customer’s configuration

  • Test APIs and asynchronous flows between services, and write contract tests for outside systems

  • Make sure the product behaves sensibly when a dependency is slow, down or returns wrong data

• AI chat features

  • Build evaluation suites with golden datasets for chatbots and assistants, rerun them on every prompt or model change, and test guardrails

  • Use AI tools to write, maintain and triage tests

• Test data and security

  • Seed realistic test data for a complex system, inside strict access and data-protection rules

  • Help find and fix security vulnerabilities in the app and its infrastructure

You Bring:

• 5+ years in quality, test or software engineering, with automation you wrote yourself, running in CI and kept by other engineers

• At least one test practice you built from a low baseline: you chose the tools, wrote the first suites, wired them into CI, and can explain what you left untested

• Strong test code in Python or TypeScript across API, browser and pipeline, including headless browser runs and integration tests for failing dependencies

• Experience testing business rules you had to learn first: you read the policy, found the gaps, and wrote tests from the answers

• Experience as the only quality person across several teams, setting your own priorities with no backlog handed to you

• Clear written updates for engineers and non-engineers alike, including the confidence to challenge a deadline with facts

What’s Offered

• Fully remote across the U.S., with live collaboration during U.S. business hours

• Full-time, permanent seat (about 40 hours a week)

• Competitive USD compensation (bring your target to the first call)

• Real authority: you define the testing strategy, the automation and what “good” looks like

• An engineering buddy to help you get set up from day one

• Direct impact: your work helps families get and keep the benefits they’re eligible for
