Could you be a good fit?
We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Quality Analyst / Engineer to join the team of our exceptional client. This role supports a large-scale enterprise laboratory information platform used globally to power critical business and operational workflows.
This is not a traditional QA Tester role, nor is it an Automation Engineer position. Instead, we're seeking a senior-level quality professional who can own quality across the entire software development lifecycle. The ideal candidate is equal parts Quality Analyst, Agile collaborator, requirements expert, and quality strategist—someone who proactively identifies risks, validates complex workflows, and helps shape what gets built before development begins.
If you're energized by understanding complex systems, asking the right questions, and ensuring software quality at every stage of delivery, this could be an excellent fit.

Own quality throughout the software development lifecycle—from requirements definition through production support
Partner with Product Owners, Business Analysts, Developers, and stakeholders to refine requirements and identify risks before development begins
Participate in backlog refinement, story grooming, and acceptance criteria creation
Analyze business requirements and uncover gaps, edge cases, dependencies, and hidden assumptions

Perform exploratory testing and end-to-end validation of business-critical functionality
Use Postman and other API tools to validate REST integrations and system behavior
Execute SQL queries to verify data accuracy, workflow outcomes, and system integrity
Review code and technical designs to understand system impact, data flow, and potential quality risks
Drive quality discussions and provide recommendations regarding production readiness and release risk
Define quality strategies and acceptance approaches for new features and enhancements
Partner with development teams to determine what automated test coverage should exist and identify gaps in testing strategy
Coordinate testing efforts across multiple applications, integrations, and workstreams
Help establish meaningful quality gates within CI/CD pipelines
Support continuous improvement initiatives related to Agile delivery, testing practices, and software quality
You will be a good fit for this role if you have:

Experience reviewing code and technical designs from a quality and business impact perspective
Understanding of CI/CD processes and quality gates
Strong communication skills with the ability to bridge business and technical teams
Experience owning test strategy, test planning, and quality outcomes rather than simply executing test cases
Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills
Nice-to-Haves
Experience in healthcare, diagnostics, laboratory systems, life sciences, or medical device environments
Experience supporting Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) or laboratory workflows
Experience testing large-scale enterprise SaaS platforms
Familiarity with event-driven architectures and distributed systems
Experience with Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) or Example Mapping
Experience evaluating automated testing strategies and coverage models

What Makes Someone Successful in This Role?
The strongest candidates are:
Proactive and self-managing
Comfortable challenging assumptions and asking difficult questions
Able to influence quality before code is written
Strong communicators who build trusted relationships across teams
Skilled at understanding business processes, workflows, and data movement
Detail-oriented without losing sight of the larger system
Passionate about quality, correctness, and continuous improvement
This role is ideal for someone who sees quality as a shared responsibility and enjoys helping teams build the right solution—not simply testing the finished product.
