The Opportunity You’ll be joining the founding team of PaceMate’s brand‑new AI & Automation development group. This is a unique opportunity to shape how we leverage AI to transform remote cardiac monitoring while building automated systems that ensure data quality at scale.

As a Data Quality Automation Engineer, you’ll design and build intelligent validation systems that work across multiple project types—from small microservices to large data migration systems. You’ll also support BI projects by creating automated validation frameworks that eliminate manual testing.

What Makes This Role Different AI-First Approach We don’t just test data—we build automated systems that use AI to validate, monitor, and improve data quality continuously. You’ll leverage Claude CLI, agentic development frameworks, and modern AI tools throughout your development workflow, not as an afterthought.

Automation Over Manual Testing Your success is measured by how much manual validation you eliminate, not how many test cases you execute. We’re looking for someone who instinctively asks “how can I automate this?” rather than “how do I test this manually?”

Diverse Project Landscape

Data migration systems ensuring accuracy during large‑scale transfers

Microservices validating data flows between services

BI projects creating automated validation for analytics and reporting

AI/ML pipelines ensuring training data quality and model outputs

What You’ll Do Build Automated Validation Systems (70%)

Design and implement automated data validation frameworks that scale across projects

Develop AI‑powered quality checks that learn from patterns and anomalies

Create programmatic tests that replace manual validation workflows

Build monitoring systems that detect data issues before they impact patients or operations

Write Python, PHP, and SQL scripts that validate complex data relationships automatically

Manual Validation & Root Cause Analysis (20%)

Investigate complex data discrepancies that automated systems flag

Perform targeted manual validation when building new automation

Conduct root cause analysis and work with engineering teams to resolve systemic issues

Validate data quality during critical migrations and system changes

Collaboration & Continuous Improvement (10%)

Partner with developers, ML engineers, and product teams to understand data requirements

Recommend enhancements to data pipelines and validation processes

Document data quality standards and automation patterns

Share knowledge about AI tools and automation approaches with the team

What We’re Looking For Core Skills (Non‑Negotiable) 1. Curiosity Above All

You’re the person who asks “why does this data look this way?” and digs until you understand

You stay current with AI advancements and experiment with new tools

You want to understand the cardiac monitoring domain, not just test data blindly

2. AI/Agentic Development Experience

Hands‑on experience with Claude CLI, Cursor, or similar agentic development tools

You’ve used AI to enhance your development workflow including agents and instruction files—not just as a chatbot

Understanding of prompt engineering and when/how to leverage LLMs effectively

Comfortable learning and adopting new AI tools quickly

3. Solution‑Oriented Mindset

You find ways forward rather than reasons why something can’t be done

When you encounter a problem, you prototype solutions and iterate

You’re resourceful and can work through ambiguity independently

4. Data‑Driven Thinking

Deep understanding of data structures, relationships, and dependencies

You can look at a data model and intuitively understand validation requirements

Strong SQL skills and ability to write complex queries to validate data integrity

Experience thinking through data flows across systems

5. Programming & Automation Skills

Strong proficiency in

Python and PHP

(our primary automation languages)

Comfortable with

SQL

(PostgreSQL and MySQL specifically)

Experience writing scripts and tools, not just using them

Familiarity with

JavaScript

for web application testing is a plus

Experience with

Puppeteer

or other front‑end testing is also preferred

Experience Level 3‑5 years in software development, QA automation, or data engineering roles where you’ve built automated testing or validation systems. We value demonstrated ability with AI tools and automation mindset over years of traditional QA experience.
