Location: This role can be based near any CGI office in the U.S. and will follow CGI's hybrid working model. Strong preference will be given to candidates located in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, or New York.

Your future duties and responsibilities
• Lead testing, validation, and UAT activities for an AI-enabled life sciences platform.
• Develop and execute automated testing strategies, including the use of AI-assisted testing and automated test-generation tools.
• Validate AI-generated code and assess AI-identified software defects and anomalies.
• Test AI-driven document processing capabilities, including document extraction, classification, metadata accuracy, version lineage, and audit trail integrity.
• Develop and maintain Computer Software Validation (CSV) documentation, test protocols, validation plans, and supporting evidence in accordance with GxP requirements.
• Ensure electronic records, document histories, audit trails, and traceability meet applicable 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.
• Build and maintain automated test suites using frameworks such as Selenium, Playwright, or similar technologies.
• Partner closely with AI engineers to establish validation criteria for AI extraction, classification, and orchestration capabilities before solutions progress to UAT.
• Review Python and/or JavaScript code and AI-generated code outputs to identify potential quality, reliability, and testing concerns.
• Collaborate with engineering, product, quality, and regulatory stakeholders to identify compliance risks early in the development lifecycle.
• Help evolve quality engineering and validation practices as AI-assisted development capabilities mature.
• Drive continuous improvement and automation across testing, validation, and quality assurance processes.

Required qualifications to be successful in this role
• 5+ years of experience in software quality assurance, quality engineering, software validation, or test automation.
• Hands-on experience developing and executing automated software testing.
• Experience with test automation frameworks such as Selenium, Playwright, or comparable tools.
• Experience with AI-assisted testing, automated test generation, or testing AI-enabled applications.
• Ability to read and understand Python and/or JavaScript to evaluate application behavior and AI-generated code.
• Experience developing validation documentation, test protocols, test scripts, and supporting evidence.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to identify quality, compliance, and software risks.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work effectively across engineering, quality, business, and regulatory teams.

Desired Qualifications
• Experience with 21 CFR Part 11 requirements and electronic records/electronic signatures compliance.
• Experience working within the life sciences, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, or other regulated healthcare environments.
• Strong understanding of Computer Software Validation (CSV) and validation practices within GxP-regulated environments.
• Experience testing AI/ML-enabled applications, including document extraction, classification, or intelligent document processing solutions.
• Familiarity with document management, document control, and version-control systems.
• Understanding of responsible AI principles, AI validation methodologies, model/output quality, and potential bias in AI-assisted testing.
