Playwright
Quality Assurance Engineer (Automation)
The Role
You’ll own the quality of the Lyrebird platform, from the first commit to the release gate. This is a hands-on, code-first engineering role, not manual test scripting. You’ll make our Playwright end-to-end and integration suites faster and more reliable, build contract tests that stop backend changes from silently breaking the web app, and design ways to evaluate clinical model output where exact-match assertions don’t work. You’ll also be the quality partner to our SRE function, giving them the health checks, synthetic monitors, load test results and post-deployment signals they need. When a release is ready to go, you’ll give a clear yes or no, backed by evidence.
This role suits an engineer who sees testing as a craft and treats a test suite as production code. You’re comfortable moving between TypeScript and Python in the same day, you get real satisfaction from deleting a flaky test and cutting minutes off a pipeline, and you’d rather help other engineers write better tests than be the only person who writes them. You’ll enjoy the hard problem at the centre of this role: how to prove that non-deterministic AI output is safe and accurate enough for clinicians to rely on.
