About the Role
As part of our Software Quality Assurance (SQA) team, you’ll play a key role in verifying and validating software across both Software as a Medical Device (SaaMD) and pharma delivery projects (clinical trials). You’ll collaborate with Software Developers, Product Managers, and Design Engineers to ensure every release meets the highest standards of quality, safety, and compliance.
This is an exciting opportunity to grow within a small, expert team where you’ll gain hands‑on experience working to medical device and pharma industry standards such as ISO 13485 and IEC 62304, while contributing to the delivery of cutting‑edge healthcare innovations.
What You’ll Do
* Execute verification and validation testing in line with project plans.
* Write, review, and execute test cases and scripts based on product requirements.
* Prepare test documentation, verification plans, and reports for regulatory submissions.
* Liaise with Software Design Engineering and Product teams to ensure requirements are met and understood.
* Contribute to requirement reviews and proactively identify potential issues.
* Support troubleshooting, defect triage, and root cause analysis.
* Help strengthen collaboration across development, quality, and product groups.
What Success Looks Like
* 3 months: You’re familiar with our products, tools, and processes, contributing to test case creation and verification planning.
* 6 months: You’re confidently owning projects end‑to‑end — planning, executing, and reporting.
* 12 months: You’ve become the “go‑to” person for testing processes and quality best practice within the team.
About You
We’re looking for someone who is:
* A quick learner who is curious, adaptable, and eager to understand complex systems.
* A proactive and responsible who takes ownership of their work and finishes what they start to a high level.
* An effective communicator with ability to collaborate across teams and explain findings clearly.
* Detail‑oriented, with strong logical reasoning and organisational skills.
Essential
* Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (e.g. Software Development, IT, or similar) or equivalent experience.
* Understanding of the software development lifecycle and agile methodologies.
Desirable
* Experience writing and executing test cases or UAT scenarios.
* Experience in medical device or pharmaceutical software testing.
* Familiarity with ISO 13485, IEC 62304, or related quality standards.
* ISTQB Foundation certification.
* Experience using Matrix Medical or similar systems.
Why Join Perspectum?
* Work across SaaMD and pharma delivery projects where your work will impact both patient care and clinical research outcomes.
* Learn from experts and join a small, supportive team packed with technical knowledge.
* Shape your growth by taking ownership, learn independently, and develop into a key member of the team.
* This is more than just a testing role, it’s a chance to make a genuine difference in a field where quality and innovation truly matter.
