At PathAI, you'll work with a diverse and talented team of people, who are dedicated to solving complex problems and making a huge impact.

Where You Fit

You’ll work closely with our development squads while helping to lead and coordinate the efforts of our SDET team. As a key point of contact between engineering and quality, you’ll bring visibility to testing activities, drive process improvements, and ensure that quality remains a priority throughout the development lifecycle.

  • Collaborate closely with engineering leadership and product teams to align on quality goals
  • Track development progress and manage the QA testing backlog
  • Write and maintain manual test cases for new and existing features when needed
  • Support test automation by providing test data, building fixtures, and running exploratory tests
  • Oversee the verification process, including documentation updates and compliance activities
  • Maintain end-to-end test traceability from requirements through test execution
  • Monitor CI/CD pipelines, investigate failures, and communicate issues to the engineering team
  • Represent the SDET team in squad meetings and share quality status, risks, and metrics
  • Work from our office in Boston (2+ days/week in office if local) or remotely from the United States on Eastern or Central hours)
What You Bring
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
  • Clear and effective communication, both written and verbal
  • Ability to quickly learn and adapt in a fast-paced environment
  • 5+ years programming experience (e.g., Python or TypeScript)
  • Understanding of test automation concepts
  • Familiarity with modern testing frameworks such as Playwright or Cypress
  • Experience with CI/CD tools like GitLab, GitHub Actions, or CircleCI
  • Experience with Jira for test and issue tracking
  • Background in Agile or Scrum development environments
  • A collaborative mindset and a proactive approach to solving problems

Nice to have:

  • Experience in regulated industries (e.g., medical devices, finance, aerospace)
  • Familiarity with advanced test management tools (e.g., Xray, Zephyr)
