What this job asks for AI summary
This role centers on building and maintaining a test automation framework — primarily using Playwright — for a regulated healthcare software platform that must meet GxP and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance standards. Day-to-day work includes authoring validation documentation, integrating quality gates into CI/CD pipelines, and exploring AI-assisted approaches to test generation and failure analysis. It suits an experienced QA or software engineer with a background in regulated environments and a strong foundation in automation infrastructure.

Why we read it this way (7)
The degree requirement states 'Bachelor's or Master's degree or equivalent experience' — equivalent experience is explicitly accepted, so no minimum degree is hard-gated.
GxP validation and 21 CFR Part 11 are listed under 'The Expertise Required' with firm language ('you have contributed to or authored…', 'Familiarity with…as they apply to software systems') and are treated as hard gates given the regulated-environment context of the role.
LLM-assisted test generation and failure analysis is framed as curiosity/eagerness to explore ('you've experimented with or are eager to explore'), placing it firmly in the preferred category.
API testing is inferred as a hard gate from the explicit requirement to build automation 'across UI, API, and integration layers' using Playwright as the primary toolchain.
An alt SOC of 15-1252 (Software Developers) is noted because the role emphasizes building and owning test infrastructure and frameworks — engineering work that overlaps with software development — but the primary framing is QA/test automation.
Ignored 1 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): 21 CFR Part 11.
