Salary: $75,000 - 85,000 per year

• We value experience with PowerShell, Python, or similar scripting tools to streamline repetitive work.
• You should be able to troubleshoot issues in a systematic way and document your findings clearly.
• Strong written communication skills are important, especially when working with hospital IT teams and internal stakeholders.

• You should have at least 2 years of experience in QA or software testing.
• You should have at least 1 year of experience in test automation.
• You should have at least 1 year of experience working with SQL.
• Application or technical support experience is preferred.
• Experience with xUnit or a similar testing framework in a .NET environment is an asset.
• Experience with Jest or a similar JavaScript front-end testing framework is an asset.
• Familiarity with GitHub and GitHub Actions, or comparable CI/CD tools, is an asset.
• Experience using Jira for issue tracking and sprint management is an asset.
• Experience with Seq or other structured log analysis tools is an asset.
• Windows Server or desktop support experience is an asset.
• Exposure to Azure infrastructure and cloud environments is an asset.
• Experience with healthcare software or hospital IT environments is an asset.
• You must be able to commute to our Mississauga office or relocate to the GTA before starting.

Responsibilities:

• We will have you split your time between QA engineering and application support and deployments, with the role evolving gradually toward more QA responsibility.
• You will design and build an automated test suite for our DQA platform, beginning locally and expanding toward CI/CD integration in GitHub.
• You will create and maintain automated tests that cover core functionality, regression scenarios, and release validation.
• You will help establish our QA process from the ground up by defining what gets tested, when it is tested, how it is tested, and what a passing release looks like.
• You will carry out structured testing on new features and releases before they reach our clients, while documenting results clearly.
• You will work closely with our development team in Jira to understand release changes, identify risk, and fit QA work into each sprint.
• You will log defects with enough detail for developers to reproduce and resolve them efficiently.
• You will continually strengthen test coverage and improve test quality as our platform grows.
• You will coordinate, patch, and upgrade client DQA installations on a recurring release cycle.
• You will deploy and configure new client installations from start to finish.
• You will analyze application logs using Seq and Windows Event Viewer to diagnose and resolve issues proactively.
• You will partner with our Customer Success Manager to prioritize and address technical issues.
• You will support client technical inquiries that require investigation across the DQA platform, including response, documentation, and resolution.
• You will use our ticketing system to track, update, and close active work items with clear notes.
• You will communicate with client IT teams about environment and deployment issues.
