Senior QA Engineer

About Circadia Health

Circadia Health is a growth-stage healthcare AI company on a mission to prevent avoidable hospitalizations and transform senior-care operations. Our Circadia Intelligence Platform combines:

• Contactless sensing that monitors respiration and motion with medical-grade accuracy

• Native predictive models that detect 85% of preventable adverse events several days in advance

• Enterprise integrations that operationalize predictions directly inside EHR, care-coordination, billing, and compliance workflows

Today, our technology touches 40,000+ post-acute patients daily across skilled-nursing, home-health, and home-care networks. We are backed by leading healthcare and AI investors and headquartered in El Segundo, CA.

Care teams act on what our platform tells them, which is why we hold our software to a medical-grade quality bar. QA at Circadia is an engineering discipline in its own right: our platform carries 70,000 years of continuous vital signs joined to clinical records from more than 400,000 patients, and verifying it demands the same rigor that built it. You will join our QA team as a senior engineer and help scale that discipline as we grow toward hundreds of thousands of monitored patients — designing test strategy, expanding automation, and producing the verification evidence that supports our regulatory work, so that quality keeps pace with everything we ship.

• Test strategy and planning. Author test plans for new features, releases, and customer deployments — defining scope, risk-based prioritization, entry/exit criteria, environments, and data requirements — so that "tested" means the same thing to Engineering, Clinical, and Quality.
• Rigorous, exhaustive test case design. Build test suites that cover the platform's full behavior surface: boundary conditions, failure-mode handling, degraded-network behavior from facilities we don't control, malformed HL7 v2 and FHIR payloads, timezone and identity edge cases across EHR integrations (Point Click Care , Homecare Homebase, Well Sky), and the alert-delivery paths where reliability matters most.
• Compliance-grade test reporting. Write comprehensive, detailed test reports and verification & validation documentation suitable for our Design History File, regulatory submissions (510(k)), and ISO 13485 / FDA QMSR audits — including requirements-to-test traceability matrices, defect trending, and evidence packages, in partnership with our Design Quality team.
• Automation and scripting. Build and maintain automated regression, API, and UI test suites in Python (PyTest) against our FastAPI services and React applications, integrated into CI/CD so every merge to production runs the full safety net. Script the tooling — test data generation, environment setup, synthetic device telemetry — that makes thorough testing fast.
• Regression protection. Own the release-readiness signal: a regression suite the team trusts, flaky-test triage, and a clear verdict on every release candidate.
• Quality culture. Champion testability across the engineering org — reviewing designs for verifiability, partnering with engineers on test coverage, and reinforcing quality as a property of how we build.
• Release quality: every release candidate ships with a clear, evidence-backed readiness verdict.
• Regression suite coverage and reliability: high coverage of critical paths, low flake rate, trusted by the team as a release gate.
• Audit readiness: test documentation accepted into the DHF and regulatory submissions without rework.
• Release velocity: automation reduces, not adds to, time from merge to production.

• 5+ years in software QA, SDET, or test engineering roles, with ownership of quality for at least one significant production system
