Release readiness is the central focus of this Software Testing Engineer (Parental-Leave Substitute) role at Oriola. The engineer plans UAT for every release, executes the agreed testing, defines exploratory scopes and creates test cases that give users' needs a clear place in assessment. Final UAT approval is given before production deployment, supported by actionable reporting when problems arise. In the regulated pharmaceutical setting, documentation and traceability form part of the testing task rather than an afterthought. The role also brings testing insight into sprint planning and backlog refinement and works with developers and business users at the relevant stages.

• Develop test cases and define the scope for exploratory testing as part of the release-testing work.

• Submit the application, CV and salary request in English; no Finnish, Swedish, driving-licence or professional-licence requirement is stated.
• Preferred: Bring knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry or the distribution industry.
• Preferred: Have experience with GxP test documentation, which is identified as a major advantage.
• Preferred: Offer experience using traceability matrices or OQ/PQ testing.

Skills and Competencies

• Manual testing is used to examine release quality for the web service before production deployment.
• User acceptance testing supports assessment of whether every release works as users need it to.
• Test-case design uses equivalence-class partitioning and boundary-value analysis within the stated profile.
• Exploratory testing is applied through defined scopes alongside planned test cases.
• GxP and regulated-environment documentation supports the validation traceability required in the role.
• Jira and Confluence are used fluently within the development team's sprint-based work.
• Automated end-to-end testing is developed in collaboration with developers.
• Defect reporting and release-quality assessment require clear reproduction steps, severity and evidence.

Benefits and Employment Information

• The opportunity offers meaningful work connected to Oriola's stated purpose, Health for life.
• Oriola lists good team spirit and colleagues in Finland and Sweden among the aspects of the role.
• The organisation describes itself as forward-looking and as having ambitious sustainability objectives.
• Independent work and development are encouraged within the organisation.
• The role is presented with a Nordic perspective and includes some travel.
• The work offers exposure to health-sector business spanning B2B services and consumer-facing customer-relationship development; it is full-time, fixed-term parental-leave substitute work with a hybrid working arrangement, and the vacancy does not publish a salary.
