This early-career role is designed for a software professional with foundational knowledge of computer science or software development who will apply those skills to design, develop, analyze, and maintain automated test programs in a regulated GxP and medical device environment. You will spend most of your time writing code, and using AI-assisted development tools to write code, that automatically tests our Salesforce configurations and integrations.

Job Responsibilities And Essential Duties Design, write, and maintain automated test scripts and test suites that verify Salesforce configurations, workflows, and integrations against documented requirements. Use AI-assisted coding tools (e.g., Cursor and similar) to accelerate test development, while reviewing, understanding, and taking ownership of all generated code. Translate user and functional requirements into clear test cases, ensuring traceability and comprehensive test coverage. Execute automated and manual tests, analyze results, and document defects with clear, reproducible detail. Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines so that testing runs consistently as part of the development and release process. Learn and apply Computer System Validation (CSV) and Computer Software Assurance (CSA) practices in compliance with FDA 21 CFR Part 11, ISO 13485, and Sequel's quality procedures. Help prepare validation deliverables such as test plans, test protocols, traceability matrices, and summary reports under the direction of senior validation staff. Support change management by helping assess the testing impact of configuration changes to validated systems. Collaborate with full-stack engineers, Salesforce developers, product managers, and Quality partners to understand requirements and resolve issues. Participate in training, code reviews, and knowledge-sharing sessions to build expertise in validation, test automation, and regulated software development. Stay current with test automation tools, AI-assisted development practices, and evolving regulatory expectations (CSA, GxP, SaMD). Minimum Requirements (Education And Experience) Education: BS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Software Development, or a related field (recent graduates encouraged to apply). Experience: 0–2 years’ experience in software development or testing; relevant internships, co-ops, academic, capstone, or personal coding projects will be considered.
