QA Engineer

Overview

Founda Health is looking for a QA Engineer to be the cornerstone of our quality assurance process. In this role, you won't just run tests; you will design, implement, and own robust testing frameworks with a specialized focus on automation, contract testing, and performance validation. You will play a vital role in ensuring our platform delivers secure, reliable, and scalable interoperability solutions for the healthcare sector.

Your Mission

You will drive engineering excellence by building automated suites that validate our platform's reliability from the code level up to complex healthcare data exchanges. Key responsibilities include:

• Advanced Automation & Contract Testing: Develop and maintain automated test suites (unit, integration, and E2E) while leading the implementation of contract testing frameworks (e.g., Pact) to ensure seamless service integration.
• Healthcare Compliance & Security: Validate strict adherence to interoperability standards (FHIR, HL7, DICOM) and test Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to secure sensitive patient data.
• CI/CD Integration: Collaborate with developers to embed automated tests directly into our GitLab CI/CD pipelines, enabling real-time validation and rapid feedback loops.
• Performance Engineering: Execute performance and load testing strategies to guarantee the platform handles high data volumes effectively and stable.
• Exploratory & Regression: Balance automation with critical manual exploratory testing to catch edge cases and ensure regression stability before releases.
  
  

We prioritize quality over quantity and believe in engineering excellence. Our team works with the Shape Up methodology, meaning we actively own our roadmap and focus on shipping impactful work without endless backlogs. We foster an inclusive, collaborative culture where thorough code reviews, mentorship, and professional growth are standard. While we are a remote-first company, we value connecting in person and collaborate twice a week at our office.
