About The Position

As a Quality Engineer at Condor, you will play a critical role in ensuring the integrity of a platform that biopharma organizations rely on to run their operations and finance. This is not traditional QA. It is a role where deep accounting judgment, systems thinking, and technical rigor come together to protect workflows where accuracy is non-negotiable. You will be embedded within an agile product team and work closely with software engineers, product managers, and domain experts to validate that complex financial and clinical trial workflows behave correctly in real-world conditions. Your work will directly reduce risk in production, increase customer trust, and ensure that Condor’s intelligence is grounded in precise, defensible financial logic. This is a hands-on role focused on test automation and analytical problem solving. You will design and maintain automated test coverage for complex financial calculations, accrual logic, and edge cases that matter in practice, not just in theory. You will also perform targeted manual validation where accounting judgment is required, help shape how systems are designed for testability, and raise the bar for quality across the platform.

Requirements

• Hands-on responsibility for clinical trial accounting or closely related contract-based cost structures, including accruals, investigator fees, site costs, or milestone-driven expenses.
• Practical experience preparing for audits and responding to auditor questions related to complex or judgment-based accounting areas.
• Proven ability to identify accounting risks, edge cases, and inconsistencies when requirements are incomplete or evolving.
• Experience working directly in accounting, financial, or ERP systems, with an understanding of how real-world accounting processes map to system behavior.
• Track record of working closely with engineering and product teams to clarify requirements, validate outcomes, and resolve discrepancies.
• Demonstrated ability to write and maintain automated tests (academic projects, bootcamps, or professional experience welcome).
• Exposure to test automation tools such as Playwright, Selenium, Cypress, or similar frameworks.
• Basic proficiency in JavaScript and/or Python with willingness to grow these skills.
• Familiarity with web applications and how frontend/backend systems work together.
• Understanding of CI/CD concepts or willingness to learn automated testing workflows.

Nice To Haves

• Experience extending test frameworks, adding shared utilities, or improving test reliability and maintainability.
• Direct experience in biopharma, CROs, or life sciences technology environments.
• Direct experience in accounting or financial software domains, with familiarity with the practical problems that arise in real-world financial systems.
• Direct experience contributing to quality engineering efforts for accounting or financial systems, including risk-based testing of complex financial workflows.

Responsibilities

• Review product requirements, technical designs, and existing functionality with a focus on accounting correctness, financial edge cases, and contractual behavior.
• Define test plans and coverage for complex financial workflows, including accruals, allocations, timing, and contract-driven logic.
• Build and maintain end-to-end automated UI and API tests protecting critical financial and customer workflows.
• Apply accounting judgment to identify gaps, risks, and ambiguous behavior early in the development process.
• Review and provide feedback on test automation and test infrastructure code.
• Perform manual testing when needed, particularly for complex or novel financial scenarios.
• Partner with Customer Support and internal stakeholders to translate real-world issues into durable automated coverage.
• Promote a shared responsibility for quality across engineering, particularly for financially sensitive features.

Benefits

• Competitive compensation and meaningful equity participation
• Comprehensive employee benefits, including 100% company-paid health, dental, vision, and life insurance
• 401(k) plan with a 3% company match that vests immediately
