The Role
Own end-to-end quality validation for new features and releases on a genomics platform. Design, build, and maintain scalable automated regression suites (Playwright/Cypress/Selenium), run API/integration tests (Postman/Swagger), integrate tests into CI/CD, lead exploratory testing and release readiness, track defects to resolution, improve QA processes, and mentor junior QA engineers while communicating quality risks across teams.
Summary Generated by Built In
Sequencing is building the interface between humanity and its DNA.
Using clinical-grade whole genome sequencing, AI, and a rapidly expanding ecosystem of genomic applications, we help people better understand themselves, their health, and their future through their DNA.
The human genome is one of the most valuable and underutilized resources in the world. Our mission is to transform the human genome into a lifelong source of personalized guidance and build the trusted home for every genome on Earth.
As the world’s largest direct-to-consumer whole genome sequencing platform, Sequencing is helping define the future of AI-powered personalized health.
We’re a profitable, venture-backed, fully remote company building category-defining products that help people better understand themselves through their DNA.
You will join a remote, global engineering team building the platform that turns DNA into lifelong health intelligence. You will report to the Senior Manager of QA and partner closely with engineering, product, and design. You will own end-to-end quality validation across the platform, design and maintain automation frameworks from scratch, and drive quality strategy that helps the team ship faster without losing customer trust. Success means higher test coverage, fewer production issues, and a release process the company can rely on.
