Senior Medical Test Engineer

Remote-first, Hungary, Full-time or Part-time

We are looking for a Senior Medical Test Engineer to drive testing strategy, validation activities, and quality standards across complex regulated systems. This is a hands-on senior role combining strategic ownership with practical execution, including end-to-end test automation, manual testing, and improving testing practices across engineering teams.

You will work closely with engineering, product, regulatory, and clinical stakeholders to support reliable, scalable, and high-quality product development, while helping establish stronger quality-focused development and testing standards across the organization.

What we are looking for

You have strong experience in software testing within regulated industries and understand how to balance quality, speed, and technical complexity in modern engineering environments.

You are comfortable working both strategically and hands-on: defining test strategies, building automation, performing manual testing, improving release confidence, and helping engineering teams raise overall testing standards.

You are proactive, detail-oriented, and able to work independently while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams.

Experience with complex systems involving software, hardware, AI/ML components, integrations, and distributed architectures is highly valuable.

We love sharing knowledge

This is the best way to gain experience and form a terrific community. 10 paid hours per month are dedicated to internal workshops. We mentor and receive mentorship, hold regular design critique sessions, and enhance our best practices. We create publications, product discoveries, case studies, and also speak at webinars and conferences.

What you will do

Define and drive the overall test strategy across products and platforms
Design, implement, and maintain end-to-end test automation frameworks and testing pipelines
Perform hands-on manual testing for complex workflows, edge cases, and validation scenarios
Lead testing activities across web, mobile (iOS, Android), backend, integrations, and offline-first systems
Develop scalable testing approaches for software, hardware-integrated, and algorithmic systems
Work closely with engineering teams to improve testing standards, release quality, and development practices
Provide guidance to developers on testing methodologies, automation approaches, and quality-focused engineering practices
Help establish and maintain testing expectations and scalable quality standards across the organization
Support engineering teams in improving end-to-end testing coverage and automation maturity
Ensure traceability between requirements, risks, tests, and releases where required
Participate in verification and validation activities, including documentation and evidence generation
Support release processes with risk-based testing and quality-focused decision-making
Identify gaps in testing coverage, quality processes, and automation maturity, and proactively drive improvements
Contribute to CI/CD and DevOps-oriented quality workflows
Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to ensure quality is embedded throughout the product lifecycle

You should have

8+ years of experience in software testing and quality engineering
Strong experience designing and executing test strategies for complex systems
Proven hands-on experience with end-to-end test automation
Strong manual testing experience and excellent debugging/investigation skills
Experience working in regulated industries such as medical, automotive, finance, aerospace, defense, or other compliance-driven environments
Experience testing distributed systems involving backend services, APIs, mobile applications, integrations, and hardware-connected systems
Familiarity with testing AI/ML or algorithm-driven systems
Strong understanding of software development lifecycles and engineering workflows
Ability to write code or scripting for automation and testing purposes
Experience improving testing standards and engineering quality practices
Ability to guide developers toward stronger quality and testing practices
Strong communication skills, ownership mindset, and proactive approach
Ability to work independently in a fast-moving environment

Nice to have

Experience in the medical industry or with Software as a Medical Device (SaMD)
Familiarity with ISO 13485, ISO 14971, FDA processes, or other medical regulatory frameworks
Experience with QA processes, audit readiness, or validation documentation
DevOps and CI/CD experience
Experience with offline-first applications or distributed/offline-capable architectures
ISTQB certification or relevant technical degree
