Senior QA Engineer

Candidate Timezones: UTC-01:00 — UTC+02:00

Revolutionizing the healthcare industry by providing an integrated AI platform that provides personalized health recommendations based on a combination of your DNA, labs, and environmental factors.

SelfDecode is the only company in the world providing ancestry-adjusted Polygenic Risk Scoring directly to the consumer.

Through our R&D division (OmicsEdge), we are making precision health affordable to all by empowering organizations to easily build precision health products using our bioinformatics infrastructure. Our core abilities include ancestry-adjusted Polygenic Risk Scoring, which we license to other organizations.

SelfDecode turns DNA, lab, and lifestyle data into personalized, science-backed health recommendations. Members rely on us to be accurate, which makes QA one of the most important roles on the team.

We're hiring a Senior QA Engineer to own and elevate quality across the product. Today our QA practice is primarily manual. Your mission is to flip that: start around 80% manual / 20% automation and gradually move it to 20% / 80% by building a real automation foundation.

This isn't a pure strategy or "thinker" role. Two teams ship features every sprint, so expect a heavy manual testing load alongside the automation work. We keep things light: no bureaucracy, no elaborate test plans. Grab a ticket, test the feature, log what's broken, move on.

You'll set the strategy, choose the tools, and design the frameworks, and you'll spend real hours executing tests while that automation grows.

• Own the QA strategy: what to automate, what to leave manual, how the test pyramid should look.
• Build the Playwright suite for web UI and the API testing layer from the ground up.
• Run focused manual and exploratory testing on web and mobile while automation grows.
