About the role

We’re building an AI assistant for oncology that helps clinicians reason across diverse data. As we scale our product in a clinical setting, the cost of quality gaps grows, both in engineering velocity and clinician trust. You’ll step in as our senior hands‑on QA engineer, shaping how we test, verify, and release software within the development team. You’ll ensure quality is built into the process, not bolted on: improving test coverage, traceability, and engineering practices around verification.

It’s a high‑impact, high‑ownership role: you’ll work side‑by‑side with engineers, influence technical decisions, and help us ship robust, reliable software that supports real‑world cancer care, without owning regulatory or project management oversight.

Location:

The Netherlands or Switzerland (minimum 50% of time at the office).

Some areas of responsibility
  • Lead the design and execution of test strategies across manual, automated and regression testing.
  • Ensure all software changes are verified against requirements with clear, audit‑ready traceability.
  • Drive improvements in test automation, CI/CD quality gates and release validation workflows.
  • Mentor engineers on QA practices and foster a culture of quality ownership across the team.
About you
  • 5+ years in QA or testing roles, with deep hands‑on experience in software development environments.
  • Proven track record in improving QA processes within engineering (e.g., traceability, test coverage, automation).
  • Strong technical skills: experienced with test frameworks, APIs, CI/CD and tools like Jira, Git and Confluence.
  • Proactive and analytical: spot gaps before they become problems and move fast to fix them.
Nice to have
  • Experience in regulated environments (e.g., medical devices, IEC 62304, ISO 13485).
  • Hands‑on scripting or automation experience (e.g., Python, Cypress, Playwright).
  • Familiarity with testing AI/ML‑driven applications or clinical software.

We are excited to gather a broad range of perspectives in our team, as we believe it will help us build better products to support a broader set of people. If you’re excited about us but don’t fit every single qualification, we still encourage you to apply: we’ve had incredible team members join us who didn’t check every box!

What we value
  • Ownership: autonomy to define your approach, improve systems and see the impact of your work.
  • Collaboration:

    work closely with engineers, product and clinicians to build solutions grounded in real need.
  • Ambition: surrounded by people who set high standards, embrace challenges and relentlessly improve patient outcomes.
Benefits and interview process
  • Attractive and competitive salary, pension plan and 25 vacation days per year.
  • Great off‑sites and team events to strengthen and celebrate the team.
  • EUR 1,000 learning and development budget to help you grow.
  • Autonomy to work in the way that suits you, whether you have a child or prefer early mornings.
  • Annual commuting subsidy.
  • Interview process:
    Screenings call, technical interview, optional onsite meeting, final executive conversation.
