At Chronomics, we make the unseen actionable - so we’ve made it our mission to create the bio-infrastructure platform that powers end-to-end diagnostics to create truly personalized customer experiences.

We’re looking for QA Engineers who love learning new things and working with others to drive all aspects of product quality. You’ll be at the heart of bio-tech innovation, using industry-disrupting technologies to sharpen the quality of our frontend, backend applications and user end-to-end flows. You’ll define, write and execute test flows to ensure that technology solutions meet or exceed user acceptance standards and requirements.

Working at a rapidly growing bio-tech, you’ll encounter new and exciting challenges as we scale our products and infrastructure to meet the demands of our customers, and expand our ecosystem to open up new possibilities. You'll closely collaborate with our engineers and other stakeholders on all aspects of quality and will help them in design, implementation, delivery and in operation of our products — in short: you’ll help them to build it, and run it!

In addition to working with modern development frameworks and cloud technologies, we are committed to helping you develop new skills and advance in your career. Whether you want to continue to grow your technical expertise or move into leadership, we have clear and tangible paths for everyone, irrespective of your level of experience, role or discipline.


Who we are:

Chronomics is a tech-bio company on a mission to make biology accessible and actionable to everyone.

The world is at the dawn of a ‘bio-revolution’ - with science set to transform our lives in the coming decades. And yet today, accessing biological information - and making it actionable - is complex, costly and cumbersome.

The revolution needs an engine - and we are building it. We design and deploy ‘bio-infrastructure’ across more than a dozen verticals to simplify, speed-up and scale the use of biomarkers to improve everyday decisions.

From tele-health to travel; sleep to skincare; multivitamins to managing menopause - and many others - we partner with the world’s largest and most impactful organizations, using science to transform how they diagnose, personalize and evaluate their offerings.

With global operations and hubs in the US and Europe, we’re a team that spans science, technology, supply chain, operations, commercial - and we’re growing. Rapidly.

With revenue outpacing all projections and operations on three continents, we’re at a key point in our journey and we’re looking for exceptional thinkers and doers who share our mission to join us.
