Platform Tester - (Back-End Systems) at Intelerad

Job description

As a Platform Tester, you'll safeguard the quality of the core platform behind Intelerad's medical imaging solutions: the services, APIs, integrations, and infrastructure that healthcare providers rely on every day. Building on a strong testing foundation, you'll own test strategy for platform components, expand automated coverage across back-end and integration layers, and partner with Engineering, DevOps, and Product teams. Together you'll make sure every release is stable, scalable, and ready for clinical environments. Key Responsibilities • Platform Test Strategy: Own test planning and execution for assigned platform components and services. Define coverage across functional, integration, regression, and non-functional testing to reduce release risk. • Automation & CI/CD Integration: Design, build, and maintain automated test suites for APIs, services, and back-end systems. Integrate them into CI/CD pipelines to shorten feedback cycles and increase release confidence. • Integration & Non-Functional Testing: Validate platform behaviour across interfaces and deployment environments. This includes interoperability (e.g., DICOM, HL7), performance, scalability, and upgrade and migration scenarios. • Defect Analysis & Resolution: Investigate complex, cross-component issues using logs, data, and system diagnostics to isolate root causes. Partner with engineering teams to drive timely resolution and prevent recurrence. • Quality Practice & Mentorship: Contribute to platform testing standards and quality metrics. Guide Software Testers on platform testing approaches, tooling, and best practices. Qualifications & Experience • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience • 5+ years of experience in software testing or quality assurance, including experience testing integrated, multi-service, or platform-level systems, or equivalent experience. • Demonstrated experience building and maintaining test automation frameworks for API and integration testing. • Working knowledge of SQL, test management tooling (e.g., qTest, Zephyr), and CI/CD pipelines. • Experience testing within containerized or cloud-based environments (e.g., AWS, Docker, Kubernetes). • Demonstrated ability to lead test strategy for complex releases with minimal supervision. Preferred Qualifications & Special Requirements • Experience with performance and load testing tools for distributed systems. • Healthcare IT or medical imaging domain knowledge (e.g., PACS, RIS, DICOM) is a plus. • ISTQB certification or equivalent.
