    Description

    Summary:

    At Ascendco Health, we're building something that matters. Our cloud-based platform empowers surgical teams and process improvement leaders with the data and tools they need to improve patient safety and surgical efficiency. Quality is not an afterthought. It is part of how we invent, build, and continuously improve our platform.

    Job Description:

    We are looking for a Quality & Automation Engineer to elevate how we test, validate, and strengthen our cloud-based platform. This is a hands-on, highly technical role. You will execute manual testing where needed, but your primary focus will be building scalable automated testing systems using tools and leveraging AI to accelerate test creation, coverage expansion, and even bug remediation workflows.

    At Ascendco, we believe in continuous improvement, ownership, collaboration, and bringing energy to meaningful work. In this role, you will not just "test features." You will help invent and scale how quality is engineered into a platform that directly impacts surgical teams and patient care.

    Responsibilities:

    Hands-On Testing & Release Validation

    • Execute structured and exploratory testing for new features and enhancements.
    • Perform regression and smoke testing prior to releases.
    • Reproduce, document, and verify bugs with clear, actionable detail.
    • Validate fixes in staging and production environments.

    Automation & AI-Driven Testing

    • Design and implement automated end-to-end test suites using Playwright (or similar modern frameworks).
    • Build and maintain automated regression and smoke tests integrated into CI/CD workflows.
    • Use AI tools to accelerate test case generation, improve coverage, and refactor brittle tests.
    • Explore AI-assisted approaches to defect analysis, reproduction, and remediation suggestions.
    • Continuously expand automated coverage for high-risk and high-impact workflows.

    Testing Architecture & Engineering Collaboration

    • Partner with developers to improve overall test coverage across layers of the stack.
    • Contribute to technical discussions to ensure new features are designed with automation in mind.
    • Improve the reliability and repeatability of test data and test execution environments.

    Guidance & Enablement

    • Provide structure and guidance to our existing QA testers within the support team.
    • Develop clear test plans and checklists that enable non-trained testers to operate more effectively.
    • Coach teammates on reproducible bug reporting and structured validation.
    • Raise the overall quality bar through example, systems, and collaboration rather than direct management.

    Process Improvement

    • Establish repeatable QA workflows and documentation standards.
    • Maintain a centralized repository of test cases and automation assets.
    • Continuously refine how quality is measured and improved across releases.

    Requirements:

    • 1–3+ years of experience in QA, SDET, or software testing roles.
    • Strong hands-on experience with modern automation frameworks such as Playwright, Cypress, or Selenium.
    • Experience integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines.
    • Ability to design scalable regression strategies rather than one-off test scripts.
    • Experience using AI tools to improve engineering workflows or testing efficiency.
    • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
    • High ownership mindset and passion for craftsmanship.
    • 50/50 WFH and in Office at our Kansas City location
