To foster connection and collaboration, employees are expected to work from the office three days per week, creating opportunities for in-person teamwork, innovation, and meaningful connection.

About the Role

Evinova is building AI-native products that are reshaping how clinical trials are designed, documented, and delivered. Our AI-native product suite include Study Designer, Study Document Assistant, AI Document Authoring, and Pipeline Management and put large language models, intelligent automation, and human-centered design directly into the hands of clinical researchers and life-sciences professionals.

We’re looking for a Test Engineering Leader who is equal parts strategist and practitioner—someone who can define how we validate AI-powered software at scale, then roll up their sleeves and prove it works. You’ll own quality across multiple products, shape the testing culture for cross-functional squads, and pioneer approaches to challenges that simply didn’t exist a few years ago: evaluating LLM outputs, validating RAG pipelines, and ensuring AI-generated content meets regulatory expectations in a GxP environment.

If you’ve been waiting for a role where deep test engineering craft meets the frontier of AI—and where your work genuinely improves patient outcomes—this is it.

What You'll Do:

Shape Testing Strategy for AI-Native Products

• Design and own end-to-end test strategies—automated and manual—for products that integrate LLMs, generative AI, and complex data pipelines.

• Develop novel evaluation frameworks for LLM output quality, prompt regression testing, and RAG retrieval accuracy.

• Select, implement, and continuously improve testing tools and frameworks in collaboration with engineering leadership and platform excellence teams.

• Drive a measurable shift from manual to automated testing, with clear metrics to track progress.
  

Own Quality and Release Readiness

• Be the single point of accountability for testing across all releases of your two products.

• Build and maintain automation frameworks and scripts that keep pace with rapid release cycles.

• Analyse test results, spot trends, and turn data into actionable improvements—not just reports.

• Prepare release-readiness documentation and quality artifacts that satisfy both internal stakeholders and GxP compliance requirements.
  

Lead, Coach, and Build Culture

• Partner with engineering managers, scrum masters, and delivery leads across squads and geographies to establish a shared quality vision.

• Lead external contract test engineering squads by influence—setting standards, mentoring team members, and modelling engineering excellence.

• Champion a quality-engineering mindset: everyone ships quality, not just the test team.

• Stay hands-on—write test cases, debug failures, and pair with engineers when the situation calls for it.

What You Bring:

Essential Skills and Experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, Information Science, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).

• 10+ years of hands-on software test engineering experience across the full stack (UI, API, data).

• Proven ability to lead test strategy and mentor other test engineers—whether through formal management or technical leadership.

• Strong automation skills with modern frameworks such as Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress, plus scripting fluency in Python or a comparable language.

• Solid experience with REST API testing, database validation (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or similar), and CI/CD-integrated test pipelines.

• A data-driven approach to quality: you define metrics, instrument dashboards, and use evidence to drive decisions.
  

Highly Preferred

• Experience testing AI/ML-powered products—especially LLM evaluation, prompt testing, RAG validation, or output-quality benchmarking.

• Familiarity with GxP software validation, computerised system validation (CSV), or regulated-industry quality practices.

• Background in life sciences, health-tech, or clinical-trial technology.

• Experience working with geographically distributed teams and external vendor squads.
