Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India | Currently Remote, Future Hybrid | Full-time | 1–2 Years' Experience

Help build the automation behind tens of thousands of prescriptions every month.

Script Assist is a growing UK healthtech company developing an interconnected SaaS platform for clinics, pharmacies and patients.

Our technology supports complex healthcare workflows, from consultations and prescribing through to stock management, dispensing and fulfilment. Tens of thousands of prescriptions move through our platform every month.

Behind those workflows is a challenging engineering environment: multiple web applications, different organisations, user roles, permissions, configurations and interconnected processes.

When an engineer changes one part of the platform, the impact can extend across several other systems.

That's why test automation matters enormously to us.

We're looking for a hands-on QA Automation Engineer who enjoys writing code, investigating technical problems and developing dependable automated tests using Playwright with TypeScript or JavaScript.

This is an opportunity to build genuine automation engineering skills while working on complex, production healthcare software alongside experienced QA and development colleagues.

What makes this opportunity engaging?

- Real automation engineering. You'll spend your time developing and maintaining automated tests, not simply executing manual test scripts.
- Complex, connected applications. You'll work with workflows crossing clinic, pharmacy and patient-facing systems, rather than testing isolated screens.
- Meaningful technical development. You'll strengthen your skills in Playwright, TypeScript/JavaScript, end-to-end testing, regression automation, debugging and maintainable test design.
- International collaboration. You'll work with colleagues supporting UK healthcare operations and contribute to improving the reliability of a growing SaaS product.
- Visible impact. Good automation makes releases safer, identifies defects earlier and gives the engineering team greater confidence to deliver changes.





What you'll be doing

- Build Playwright automation: Write, execute, debug and maintain automated UI and end-to-end (E2E) tests using TypeScript or JavaScript and Playwright Test.
- Strengthen regression coverage: Automate important functional, integration and regression scenarios covering clinics, pharmacies and patient workflows.
- Write maintainable test code: Work with Page Object Model (POM) patterns, reusable helpers, test fixtures, assertions, test data and reliable locators.
- Investigate failures: Diagnose broken tests, timing problems, asynchronous behaviour, flaky automation and unexpected application responses.
- Validate APIs and workflows: Use REST API testing techniques and tools such as Postman to understand and verify application behaviour.
- Collaborate with developers: Reproduce bugs, explain defects clearly, verify fixes and investigate how changes affect related functionality.
- Improve automation quality: Use Git, review test execution results and develop your understanding of reliable testing in CI/CD pipelines.

What we're looking for

We're particularly interested in candidates with:

- Approximately 1–2 years of professional software testing experience, including genuine hands-on test automation.
- Practical experience personally writing Playwright automated tests using TypeScript or JavaScript.
- Understanding of Playwright locators, assertions, automatic waiting, fixtures and Page Object Model concepts.
- Experience creating automated functional, regression or end-to-end tests for web applications.
- Basic knowledge of REST APIs, debugging, defect reporting and Git.
- A logical approach to problem-solving,



attention to detail and clear written communication.
- The ability to investigate a technical problem, learn from feedback and improve your code.

You don't need to have designed a complete automation framework or worked in healthcare before.

Particularly useful experience

Experience testing SaaS or B2B web applications, multiple user roles, permissions, REST APIs, complex workflows or configuration-driven products would be beneficial.

Familiarity with CI/CD, Playwright trace debugging and AI-assisted coding tools would also be useful, although these are not prerequisites.

What success looks like

You'll become someone the team can rely on to automate a feature, build meaningful assertions, investigate a failing test and explain what the evidence shows.

Over time, you'll contribute increasingly independently to automated regression coverage and the reliability of the overall test suite.

Location and working arrangements

We're currently working remotely and plan to introduce hybrid working in Ahmedabad. You must be willing and able to attend the Ahmedabad office when this arrangement is implemented.

The role requires collaboration with UK-based colleagues and working hours aligned with UK operations, including evening hours in India. The precise schedule will be confirmed during recruitment.

How we hire

We believe practical engineering ability matters more than an impressive-looking CV. Our selection process is straightforward:

- Apply through LinkedIn and answer a short set of eligibility questions.
- Complete a practical Playwright automation assessment.
- If you're among the strongest performers, attend a technical interview with our senior QA automation colleague.

If you're currently a QA Engineer, Test Automation Engineer, Software Test Engineer or junior SDET who genuinely enjoys writing automation code, we'd like to hear from you.

Apply through LinkedIn with your CV and help us improve the reliability of software supporting real healthcare operations.
