Senior Software Verification Engineer

JOB DESCRIPTION:

The Opportunity

The Senior Software Verification Engineer will plan, develop, and execute software verification activities for regulated medical device systems and mobile applications. This individual will perform hands-on manual testing for software on physical devices or virtual interfaces, while simultaneously building automated tests . The ideal candidate ensures end-to-end verification, 100% requirements traceability, and robust test coverage to deliver high-quality, compliant connected-health software under rigorous medical device regulations. Because this role requires hands-on interaction with physical medical device hardware, this is a fully on-site position.

What You’ll Work On

• Hybrid Testing: Balance manual exploration of physical medical device hardware with the expansion of automated regression suites.
• Manual & Exploratory Testing: Author and execute complex manual test cases for physical UIs, touchscreens, and exploratory hardware edge-case scenarios.
• Mobile & UI Testing: Execute tests on physical device screens and iOS/Android applications to verify UI/UX, connectivity, and data synchronization.
• Automation Engineering: Design, implement, and scale automated testing suites using frameworks like Squish, Appium, XCUITest, or Espresso.
• Matrix Management: Manage and test across physical mobile device matrices to ensure software compatibility across varying OS versions and screen sizes.
• Wireless Verification: Verify robust wireless communication between mobile applications and physical medical devices using BLE, Wi-Fi, Cellular or NFC.
• Leadership & Collaboration: Lead contractors and junior engineers while collaborating closely with developers to articulate, log, and resolve software bugs.
• Write and maintain comprehensive verification test plans, test protocols, and test reports.
• Establish and maintain rigorous 100% requirements traceability matrices.
• Ensure all verification activities strictly align with medical device software lifecycle standards (IEC 62304), quality management systems (ISO 13485), and FDA guidelines.
• Document defects with clear, reproducible steps, technical logs, and code-level context where applicable.

Required Qualifications

• Work Location: Ability to work full-time on-site to directly access physical hardware, test benches, and wireless environments.
• Experience: 5+ years of software verification experience, specifically within the medical device, digital health, or a similarly regulated industry.
• Regulatory Knowledge: Solid understanding of IEC 62304 and FDA design controls for medical device software.
• Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills with a proven ability to interface effectively with cross-functional teams.

Preferred Qualifications

• Programming Languages: Proficiency in Python (for test scripting and automation tooling), alongside experience in languages relevant to mobile/embedded development such as Java, C and C++.
• Automation: Proven experience building automated testing frameworks for mobile (iOS/Android) or embedded systems using Squish or Appium.
• Protocols: Strong technical understanding of wireless protocols (BLE, Wi-Fi, Cellular, NFC).
