The Role

Nitro is an AI-native data platform that democratizes life sciences data for non-technical commercial teams, turning fragmented HCP/HCO, prescription, and industry data into decisions the field can act on. We're looking for a QA Engineer to drive quality for the platform and help modernize how we test it. Here, testing isn't a gate bolted onto the end of shipping, it's part of the same function as building and deploying. You'll own your share of that full chain. This is a junior role for someone who wants to build a real career in QA and automation. You'll start hands-on with day-to-day testing and grow into broader ownership of our test automation as you develop. We're investing in making our testing environment more AI-forward, and you'll have real room to shape and extend that work, not just maintain what exists. The function itself is evolving, too: our Operations org is moving from traditional QA toward evaluating AI-native systems, and this role is your entry point into where that's headed.

What You'll Do

• Own day-to-day QA across releases: new data connectors, schema changes, customer rollouts, platform upgrades, ensuring changes are solid before they reach customers

• Help cut down false-failure noise in the test suite and improve how efficiently it runs, so the team can trust what it's telling them

• Get close enough to the business logic behind our data pipelines to know not just whether a test passes, but whether it's testing the right thing

• Build new automations as new features roll out

Requirements

• Genuine interest in building a career in QA and automation. Entry-level to ~1-2 years of QA or testing experience

• Comfortable moving between technical detail and business context. You care about why a test matters, not just whether it passes

• Familiarity with coding with Claude or similar

• Strong foundations in Java and SQL

• Proficiency with version control systems (Git)

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with API/UI test automation frameworks and tools like Cucumber, Selenium

• Experience with AWS (EC2, S3, IAM)

• Knowledge of CI/CD tools like Jenkins
