Job description

Veeva Systems is a mission-driven organization and pioneer in industry cloud, helping life sciences companies bring therapies to patients faster. As one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in history, we surpassed $3B in revenue in our last fiscal year with extensive growth potential ahead.

At the heart of Veeva are our values: Do the Right Thing, Customer Success, Employee Success, and Speed. We're not just any public company – we made history in 2021 by becoming a public benefit corporation (PBC), legally bound to balancing the interests of customers, employees, society, and investors.

As a Work Anywhere company, we support your flexibility to work from home or in the office, so you can thrive in your ideal environment.

Join us in transforming the life sciences industry, committed to making a positive impact on its customers, employees, and communities.

The Role

As Senior QA Engineer for a new product within Veeva, you will be a founding member of a team building our next major AI-driven platform - one that will transform how Life Sciences companies manage safety, regulatory, and clinical development. The team will be AI-first in two meaningful ways: using AI to drive engineering productivity and strong engineering discipline, and building a product that applies AI in genuinely innovative ways to problems that matter.

You’ll have significant ownership over the QA process, documentation and tools in a startup-like setting. This role is for a hands-on, self-starter who thrives on balancing performance, cost, and reliability.

Within your first 3 months, you will have live customers on the platform and a thriving, growing team behind it - directly accelerating how customers bring life-saving products to market.

What You’ll Do

• Implement the AI based QA process. You will work closely with engineers and production operations to establish the QA process for Falcon
• Own platform test automation. You will develop and maintain automated test-cases for the Falcon platform
• Support Releases. You will partner with engineering and production operations to assist with the process and documentation to ensure smooth releases
• Maintain test environments and integrations. In partnership with engineering, you will help to maintain the test environments and integrations for Falcon

Requirements

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in a QA role, with a strong focus on automation, tooling, and process oversight
• Hands-on experience writing and maintaining automated test suites covering sanity, boundary, negative, concurrency, and compatibility scenarios
• Programming Skills: You have extensive experience in a programming language like Python, TypeScript or Java
• Strong technical background in Unix/Linux command-line environments for log analysis and backend debugging
• Proficiency with SQL for database querying and data validation
• Hands-on experience with API testing tools (e.g., Postman, REST Assured)
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Applicants must have the unrestricted right to work in the United States. Veeva will not provide sponsorship at this time

Nice to Have

• Experience utilizing AI testing tools, prompt engineering for test-case generation, LLM output evaluation, or generative AI to optimize testing workflows
• Proficiency in scripting languages like Bash or Python
• Experience with observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, Elasticsearch)
• Knowledge of artifact management solutions (Nexus, ECR)
• Familiarity with code validation and linting tools (Sonar)
