About Foundation Health
Foundation Health is transforming healthcare through an AI-powered digital pharmacy platform that seamlessly connects operational infrastructure with high quality patient experiences. Our mission is to transform patient centric care by connecting fragmented infrastructure, optimizing care coordination, and removing friction from the patient journey. We refuse to adhere to the status quo; instead, we actively pioneer solutions that will shape the healthcare practices of tomorrow.
This ambitious vision is only achievable with the dedication of the right team propelling us forward. We firmly believe that a supportive and inspiring work environment fuels creativity, transforming it into groundbreaking innovation. It is this very innovation that not only benefits our organization but also positively impacts our people, partners, and most importantly, our patients.
At Foundation Health, we foster a culture that encourages our team members to broaden their horizons, urging them to bring their passion and curiosity to the workplace each day. We understand that diverse perspectives fuel progress, and we actively seek individuals who share our commitment to excellence and forward-thinking.
The Mission: Quality-First Healthcare
Healthcare is plagued by outdated, frustrating workflows. At Foundation Health, we believe that thoughtfully applied AI can finally simplify these systems. We are revolutionizing the pharmacy space by building deep, integrated infrastructure that changes how care is delivered.
As a QA Engineer here, you aren’t just "checking boxes" - you are the guardian of a platform that directly impacts provider workdays and patient lives.
The Role: Balancing Innovation with Integrity
We are an AI-native team. We don’t just build AI; we use it to maximize our output and automate the mundane. We’re looking for a QA Engineer who leans on AI tools to supercharge their own productivity and is excited by the challenge of testing AI-powered systems.
However, we also value "old school" grit. We need someone who can:
Take Ownership: You’ll have the autonomy to shape our QA culture and standards from the ground up.
Be the Gatekeeper: You aren't afraid to "put your foot down" if a product isn't ready for primetime.
Master the Fundamentals: From deep-dive regression testing to supporting complex implementations, you ensure our move-fast culture doesn't break things.
Our Tech & Your Toolkit
We’ve cleared the path with a modern, serverless stack designed for speed: Node.js, TypeScript, SvelteKit, and GCP.
Automation: You’ll be able to master our Playwright frameworks.
APIs: You’ll use tools like Postman to ensure our core platforms meet high-quality standards.
The Future: You’ll get hands-on with Playwright MCP and Agents, with other cutting-edge tools as we ship real-world features into production.
Location & Why You’d Join
We have an office in Manchester City Centre, and while we aren't a "mandatory X days in the office" company, we believe in the power of getting together. We’re looking for Engineers who are excited to head into Manchester when needed to whiteboard, collaborate on ideas, and build rapport in person.
Why leave your current role?
High Agency: You’ll have a direct seat at the table to influence the technical direction of our testing practices.
No Legacy Debt: You won’t be wrestling with decade-old bugs; you’ll be building new frameworks for a rapidly evolving platform.
Meaningful Stake: Joining this early means taking a significant equity stake in what we are building.
What You Bring
3+ years of experience in QA/Software testing with a focus on web applications and APIs.
Proficiency in Playwright for automated front-end testing.
Experience with QA on enterprise level products
An AI-Native Mindset: You already use AI tools to help your workflow or have experience testing AI products.
Experience with Manual and Exploratory testing - you know when to automate and when to dig in by hand.
