QA Engineer (Automation + Functional)

Summary

RhythmScience, Inc. is a growing Series A company building clinical-grade remote monitoring software for cardiac care. They are seeking a QA Engineer who will be responsible for ensuring software quality through automated testing and collaboration with product and engineering teams to develop test plans and define acceptance criteria.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain automated end-to-end and regression tests (Playwright) and keep them running reliably in CI/CD
• Run functional, regression, and integration testing across our web and mobile apps
• Partner directly with product and engineering to develop test plans for new features. You'll be involved early, helping define acceptance criteria, not handed a finished spec to validate
• Help define release readiness criteria and quality gates as the team grows
• Triage, reproduce, and clearly document defects; track quality signals (escaped defects, coverage, flake rate) and surface them to the team
• Improve our testing tooling and processes as we scale

Skills

• 3+ years in software QA with hands-on automation experience (Playwright or equivalent)
• Comfortable writing test plans from product requirements and owning them through release
• Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines
• Pragmatic and self-directed in a fast-moving startup. You build the process, not just follow it
• US-based with solid West Coast (PT) overlap for day-to-day work with product and engineering
• Strong written communication for clear, reproducible bug reports and test documentation
• Experience testing HIPAA-compliant systems or an understanding of PHI data-handling requirements
• API testing experience, or familiarity with EHR integrations (HL7/FHIR)
• Background in healthcare SaaS, RPM, or clinical data platforms
