QA Engineer – Manual & Automation
Industry:Healthcare Technology
Location:Pune / Remote
Job Type: Part-Time/Contract
What this role is about:
You'll own quality across everything users touch. Not just test cases — but:
- Workflows that break in ways no one anticipated.
- Releases that go out fast and come back clean.
- Bugs that get caught before they reach a clinician.
What you'll do
Manual Testing
- Design and execute test cases, exploratory sessions, and regression cycles for web, API, and mobile.
- Test end-to-end healthcare workflows — scheduling, clinical documentation, patient data handling.
- Validate UI/UX against design specs and accessibility standards (WCAG).
- Run smoke, sanity, UAT, and pre-release checklists across environments.
- Log, triage, and track defects with clear reproduction steps; follow through to closure.
Test Automation
- Build and maintain Playwright test suites for critical web workflows.
- Develop functional API test automation using Jest; set up load tests with JMeter.
- Create and maintain Flutter widget and integration tests for mobile.
- Integrate automated suites into CI/CD pipelines for continuous quality feedback.
- Track and close coverage gaps; keep automation stable as the product evolves.
Healthcare & Compliance
- Test HIPAA compliance — data handling, access controls, audit logging, security protocols.
- Validate EHR integrations (Epic, eClinicalWorks) and HL7/FHIR data standards.
- Ensure consent workflows, audit trails, and compliance features work correctly.
Quality Process & Collaboration
- Define testing standards, documentation templates, and best practices for the team.
- Perform root cause analysis on failures and production incidents.
- Advocate for testability early — in design reviews, story grooming, and architecture discussions.
What you bring
- 2+ years in software QA with hands-on experience in both manual and automation testing.
- Strong proficiency in TypeScript / JavaScript for writing and maintaining test code.
- Hands-on Playwright experience for web automation.
- Experience with Jest for unit and integration testing.
- Proficiency with JMeter or similar for load and performance testing.
- Experience with Flutter testing (widget tests, integration tests).
- Solid understanding of REST and GraphQL API testing.
- CI/CD integration experience — GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar.
- Knowledge of test design patterns (Page Object Model, Screenplay pattern).
- Familiarity with accessibility testing standards (WCAG 2.1).
