Senior QA Automation Engineer builds and maintains automated tests for a UK-based diabetes management app, integrating with glucose monitors, insulin pumps, and wearables in a hybrid Cambridge office role.
We are looking for a Senior QA Automation Engineer to join a UK medical technology company based in Cambridge. The company specializes in advanced solutions for diabetes management.
This is permanent employment. The work format is hybrid (the QA Engineer is required to attend the office in Cambridge once per week, preferably more often, though this can be discussed directly).
Role Purpose and Primary Objectives:
As a QA Automation Engineer, you will help to improve the lives of people with diabetes worldwide by working on our Class III CE, UKCA-marked, and FDA-approved app. By linking to both a continuous glucose monitor and an insulin pump, we feed the user’s real-time glucose level into our cutting-edge algorithm to seamlessly instruct the pump how much insulin to deliver to optimize our user’s blood sugar. This has been shown through a number of landmark studies to improve diabetic control while also reducing the life-changing workload of managing this lifelong condition.
Our rapidly growing App is one of the leading systems for Type-1 diabetes, used in 19 countries and translated into 12 languages. You will join a growing, cross-functional team working across the full lifecycle, from feature ideation through release, iteration, and maintenance, with an emphasis on owning the end-to-end delivery of features and tasks.
