Senior Engineer, Test Automation

How This Role Makes a Difference

As a Senior Engineer, Test Automation, you will be responsible for building and evolving the test automation infrastructure that underpins Care Access's regulated software platform. You will bring deep technical expertise in Playwright-based automation and hands-on experience with GxP validation, while also exploring how AI-augmented testing approaches can scale coverage and reduce manual toil. You will work closely with product teams to embed quality at every stage of development and raise the bar for how we ship and validate software in a regulated environment.

How You'll Make An Impact

• Build, maintain, and improve the end-to-end test automation framework, with Playwright as the primary toolchain across UI, API, and integration layers.
• Author and maintain release validation documentation, in support of 21 CFR Part 11 and GxP compliance.
• Evaluate and apply AI-assisted testing techniques, such as LLM-based test generation and intelligent failure triage, to extend coverage and reduce toil.
• Integrate and maintain quality gates across CI/CD pipelines, balancing speed with the rigor required for a regulated environment.
• Partner with engineers during active development to shift quality left — writing tests alongside features and surfacing risk early.
• Contribute to QA process improvements and share knowledge with teammates; you're a resource others lean on without being responsible for managing them.

The Expertise Required

• Strong proficiency with Playwright and experience building automation frameworks that are reliable and easy to maintain.
• Exposure to GxP validation practices — you have contributed to or authored traceability matrices and validation summary reports.
• Familiarity with 21 CFR Part 11, GCP, or similar regulatory frameworks as they apply to software systems.
• Curiosity about AI tooling in testing — you've experimented with or are eager to explore LLM-assisted test generation and failure analysis.
• Solid engineering fundamentals: you can read production code, debug across the stack, and build test infrastructure engineers actually want to use.
• Clear communication: you can explain test strategy and risk tradeoffs to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders.

Certifications/Licenses, Education, and Experience
