Senior Quality Engineer

Berlin OR Remote Germany; Remote United Kingdom

About us

At Ada, we envision a world where everyone gets the healthcare they need. Yet, millions remain undiagnosed and untreated due to the complexity of identifying rare and underrecognized conditions, even when effective treatments exist.

We’re changing that. Powered by leading AI and built by a team of physicians and clinical scientists, Ada helps people get answers faster, identifying those at risk and guiding them to the right care. Every successful journey makes us smarter and able to help more people.

If you’re passionate about transforming healthcare and ensuring no one goes undiagnosed, join us and be part of what’s next.

About the role

We are seeking a Senior Quality Engineer who is keen to play a key part in shaping the quality of our new conversational AI product, working across the stack to design, extend, and evolve our automated and exploratory testing approaches. You’ll collaborate closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to embed quality throughout the SDLC, championing a whole-team mindset while tackling the unique challenges of testing LLM-powered systems in a regulated environment.

This is a remote role, open to candidates based in the UK or Germany.

What you’ll do

  • Extend and enhance our existing, general-purpose E2E test automation framework (Kotlin and JavaScript-based) to ensure robust coverage for our new conversational AI product.
  • Develop new, service-level test automation using Python to support your team's deployment pipeline and product stack. 
  • Develop and execute novel testing strategies specifically for conversational AI and LLM-based features, focusing on performance, accuracy, and user interaction quality.
  • Champion a 'whole-team' approach to quality, coaching and mentoring engineers, designers, and product managers in testing and risk-based analysis.
  • Continuously test throughout the entire SDLC, from idea and design to code and production, using a smart mix of exploratory and automated testing techniques.
  • Collaborate with engineers to identify and mitigate integration risks at the API and system level, thinking deeply about how our services interact.
  • Document and report testing outcomes clearly, ensuring all documentation and approaches meet regulatory and compliance standards while proactively improving compliance procedures.
  • Drive the internal quality community, actively share your knowledge, and help raise the bar for testing and quality across the entire engineering team.

What you’ll bring

  • Proven experience as a Senior Quality Engineer (or similar role) with a strong background in extending and scaling test automation frameworks.
  • Demonstrable experience in testing AI/ML, LLM-based or agentic products.
  • Familiarity with our product stack which includes Kotlin, Typescript, Javascript, React, Python, MongoDB, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes, Google Cloud Platform, Azure, AWS, and Jenkins.
  • Deep understanding of system-level and API testing.
  • A track record of identifying integration risks in complex, modern web applications.
  • Previous experience working in a regulated environment (e.g., healthcare, finance, etc).
  • A risk-based and context-driven mindset, with hands-on experience in exploratory testing, a good knowledge of testing heuristics, and able to report testing results in language that stakeholders appreciate and understand.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills; you are happy to pair, learn, teach, and share your knowledge with technical and non-technical colleagues.
  • A fast learner eager to dive in.
  • Proactive, result-oriented, and highly motivated with a strong sense of ownership and initiative.

What’s awaiting you at Ada

  • Flexible working hours to maintain a healthy work/life balance
  • 28 days holiday, plus bank holidays to unplug, rest and recharge for our UK employees (30 days plus public holidays in Germany).
  • Corporate health insurance and pension scheme (UK).
  • Support to set up your home office space, with the option for a co-working space subscription for our remote employees.
  • Parental benefits (Plus Nursery Benefits for the UK).
  • Employee Assistance Programs to help you look after your emotional wellbeing and deal with life’s challenges.
  • Stay active and healthy with a discounted ClassPass membership (or Urban Sports Club membership for our employees in Germany).
  • Bike Leasing Scheme (Germany).
  • Online Academy for learning and development opportunities.

Upon receipt of your application, your application data will be reviewed by the HR department. Suitable applications are then forwarded internally to the department heads for the respective vacancies. The next steps to be taken are then agreed upon. In principle, only those persons in the company have access to your data who need this for the regular conduct of our application process.

You have the possibility to object to the processing of your data at any time. This is the case if processing is not necessary in particular to fulfil a contract with you, which is described by us in the previous description of the functions. In the event that your objection is justified, we will examine the situation and either stop or adjust the data processing or point out to you the compelling legitimate reasons on the basis of which we will continue processing.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
