The Opportunity 

Irembo is transforming the healthcare landscape by launching a national-scale telemedicine platform, building on our success in service management (IremboGov) and payment solutions (IremboPay). This project directly leverages the seven-year legacy of Babyl Rwanda, which pioneered telemedicine and delivered over 3.5 million consultations.

We are seeking a meticulous QA Engineer to ensure the reliability, accuracy, and patient safety of the Telemedicine platform. Given the medical nature of the service, your role is absolutely critical in validating complex clinical workflows, multi-channel interfaces, and high-stakes financial and medical data integrations. You will be the guardian of quality for a system where software reliability directly impacts patient health and safety.

Key Responsibilities: 

• Test Strategy and Planning: 
• Develop and execute comprehensive, risk-based test plans for all interfaces, specifically including mobile, web, and USSD channels, with a deep focus on critical clinical paths (e.g., patient triage, consultation, e-prescription).
• Rigorously validate end-to-end clinical and operational workflows, ensuring the system accurately supports remote consultations, chronic disease management follow-ups, and data recording.
• Apply meticulous attention to detail regarding patient data accuracy, security, and the workflow logic of provider and patient tools.
• Critical System Integration and AI Testing: 
• Plan and execute rigorous integration testing for critical external systems, including the RSSB/Insurances claims processing system and connections with national EMRs (e.g., eBuzima).
• Play a critical role in Safety Validation, verifying that the integrated AI Triage engine and clinical decision support tools perform accurately and consistently within defined safety and efficacy parameters.
• Automation and Quality Governance: 
• Design, implement, and maintain scalable automated testing frameworks to ensure efficient and reliable regression testing across APIs, web, and mobile platforms.
• Actively assist in technical assessments and prepare the necessary software logs, test results, and documentation required for crucial clinical quality audits and regulatory compliance checks.

Qualifications:

• 3+ years of professional QA experience, with a focus on functional, non-functional, and security testing.
• Proven experience developing and implementing test automation tools such as Selenium and Appium.
• Strong experience testing complex API integrations and mobile applications.
• Demonstrated ability to create detailed, reusable test cases that account for data accuracy and complex workflow logic.

Preferred Skills

• Prior experience in testing medical software or safety-critical systems.
• Experience in performance and load testing for high-volume service platforms.

Why Join This Project?

You will be integral to a national project, serving as the guardian of quality for a system where reliability directly impacts patient health and safety. This role offers a unique opportunity to apply specialized QA and safety validation skills to a platform that is transforming healthcare access for millions.
