We help operations leaders and engineers avoid endless cycles of chasing data in disparate and heavy-handed systems and rapidly understand how to run their manufacturing processes better. /li liWe’re solving multiple problems in GMP operations that cost manufacturers millions yearly while accelerating their digital maturity journey. One of our unique capabilities is the ability to operationalize the use of predictive AI models in real time without a big data science staff. /li liWe're backed by leading industry and software investor firms with solid industry and technology expertise, giving us the foundation to grow with confidence. /li /ul pOur mission is to improve global health by optimizing how medicines are manufactured so that pharma and biotech companies can provide patients worldwide with the right medicine at the right time and price. /p pJoin us if you are motivated to directly impact our company's success and growth path forward and to positively contribute to the life science industry and deserving patients worldwide. /p h3The Position /h3 pReport to: QC Lead /p pThe Advanced QA Automation Engineer is the automation cornerstone of Aizon’s Quality Control department. This role designs, builds, and continuously evolves automated testing frameworks that cover both Aizon Execute (iBR) and Aizon Platform (Unify Predict) — two SaaS solutions deployed in highly regulated GxP pharmaceutical environments. /p pBy transforming manual test scripts into reliable, self-documenting automated suites that produce human-readable, audit-ready evidence, this engineer enables faster release cycles, stronger quality gates, and greater confidence for our pharma and biotech customers worldwide. /p h3Key Responsibilities /h3 ul liDesign and own the end-to-end automated test strategy for Aizon Execute (iBR), Aizon Unify, and Aizon Predict, covering functional, regression, integration, and API test layers across both SaaS platforms based on the guidelines defined by the QA Lead. /li liBuild and maintain automated test suites using modern frameworks (e.g., Playwright/Selenium for UI, Pytest/RestAssured for API), ensuring broad coverage of all critical GxP workflows and user journeys. The goal is to take advantage of AI in order to develop real human workflows covered by the automated test. /li liDevelop CI/CD-integrated pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or equivalent) that automatically trigger and report test execution on every build, providing continuous quality feedback to the Engineering team. /li liGenerate structured, human-readable test evidence reports and execution logs that comply with GMP documentation requirements (CSV / GAMP 5 / 21 CFR Part 11) and are ready for internal and customer regulatory audits. /li liDesign and implement automated data integrity and validation checks for Unify’s data fabric layer, verifying correct ingestion and contextualization of MES, LIMS, ERP, historian, and QMS data. /li liAutomate validation of Aizon Predict’s AI/ML model management workflows, including model deployment, monitoring, and drift-detection test scenarios. /li liMaintain a comprehensive traceability matrix that links requirements, test cases, and automated evidence artifacts, supporting IQ/OQ/PQ validation packages for customer deliverables. /li liCollaborate with Product and Engineering teams during sprint planning and backlog grooming to define testable acceptance criteria and embed shift-left quality practices. /li liResearch and evaluate emerging test-automation and AI-assisted testing tools, introducing innovations that increase coverage and reduce execution time. /li liMentor junior QA engineers on automation best practices, scalable code quality, and GMP-compliant testing documentation. /li /ul h3Must-Have Qualifications /h3 ul li4+ years of experience in software QA/testing, with at least 2 years focused on test automation for SaaS or cloud-based applications. /li liProficiency in Python and/or JavaScript/TypeScript for writing maintainable, scalable automated test code. /li liBachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field. /li liHands‑on experience with UI and API test automation frameworks (e.g., Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, Pytest, RestAssured, or equivalent). /li liExperience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or equivalent). /li liSolid understanding of GxP, CSV (Computer System Validation), or GAMP 5 principles applied to SaaS product testing. /li liWilling to comply with and follow all regulations required when working in a highly regulated environment, such as ISO standards and GMP regulations. /li liDemonstrated ability to produce human-readable, audit-ready test evidence and traceability documentation suitable for regulated GxP environments. /li liFamiliarity with test management and defect tracking tools (e.g., Jira/Xray, TestRail, Zephyr, or similar). /li /ul h3Nice-Have Qualifications /h3 ul liExperience testing data platform or data integration solutions (ETL pipelines, data quality validation, historian/LIMS/MES connectivity). /li liKnowledge of AI/ML model validation approaches, including testing for model outputs, drift detection, and audit trails in GxP settings. /li liFamiliarity with pharmaceutical manufacturing processes and systems (MES, LIMS, DCS, QMS, ERP) relevant to GMP environments. /li liExperience with performance and load testing tools (k6, Locust, JMeter, or similar) for SaaS application benchmarking. /li liISTQB Advanced Level certification or equivalent recognized QA/QC certification. /li liExposure to ISO 27001, SOC 2, or 21 CFR Part 11 compliance requirements in software testing contexts. /li /ul h3The Human We’re Looking For /h3 ul liAn automation advocate who instinctively looks at any manual process and asks: “How can we make this self-running, self-documenting, and repeatable?” /li liA clear communicator who can translate technical test findings into plain language for product managers, customer success teams, and even pharma customers during regulatory audits. /li liA collaborative team player who thrives in a small, agile QA team, is comfortable wearing multiple hats, and takes ownership beyond their immediate scope. /li liIntellectually curious and proactive — always exploring new frameworks, AI-assisted testing techniques, and industry best practices to keep Aizon’s quality standards ahead of the curve. /li liA meticulous, quality-driven professional who understands that in GMP environments, an untested or undocumented test simply never happened — and takes that responsibility personally. /li liSomeone with a compliance mindset who embraces regulatory rigor not as a constraint, but as a professional standard that protects patients and builds lasting customer trust. /li /ul h3What We Offer /h3 ul liUnique opportunity to join our company as it scales with excellent
