Software QA Engineer; SDET

Position Summary

As a Software Quality Engineer at Life Vantage, you will help redefine how quality engineering is practiced across our technology organization. This role is for a hands‑on engineer who uses automation, AI, data, and modern engineering practices to dramatically increase the speed, coverage, and intelligence of our quality processes. Working within cross‑functional product teams, you will partner closely with Engineering, Product, Architecture, Dev Ops, and business stakeholders to build quality into the software development lifecycle, reduce reliance on repetitive manual testing, accelerate feedback, and continuously improve customer and consultant experiences.

You will be expected to challenge traditional QA approaches, evaluate emerging technologies, and help move the organization toward an AI enabled, automation first quality engineering model.
