WHY BECOME AN OSTRONAUT?

Here at Ostro we help millions of people live healthier lives by being the missing, caring link between those who make medicines, treatments, and diagnostics, and those who take them. We create personalized healthcare journeys that boost engagement for consumers and HCPs, and drive value for life sciences brands.

We are looking for like-minded people eager to join our team and help architect the future of life science commercialization through our enterprise SaaS products. We are a small but mighty team of around 40 (for now!) internationally-based colleagues. As we grow, we are looking for Ostronauts who want to join us on our growth journey to disrupt life science digital marketing and who are ALSO committed to our values of teamwork and honesty!

Our founding team has designed and built companies on the consumer front acquired by Google, as well as enterprise tech companies deployed across The Fortune 500.  We are backed by some of the best investors in the world, including RRE Ventures, Bling Capital, Founders Fund, Greycroft, and more.

PERKS OF BEING AN OSTRONAUT:

🖤   Impacting the future of healthcare - your innovations could very likely become the new norm for millions of people.  

💪  Working alongside the founders of the company. If you have any entrepreneurial desire to start your own company in the future, you will see first-hand what it takes.

💯  100% fully remote but with frequent opportunities to collaborate in-person. 

🖥️  Technology & office setup reimbursement, in addition to wework access! 

💃🏾  Freedom and responsibility to structure your work as you desire. We measure output and results and believe freedom allows for maximum ability.

🏖️  Unlimited PTO!

👪  Family leave: up to 10 weeks of 100% paid salary.

✨  Open communication - we believe in being transparent and radically honest with no retaliation.

🥳  Competitive salary and equity.

🩼  Medical/dental/vision benefits and more.

CULTURAL VALUES: 

Put People First, Win as a Team, Act with Urgency and Scrappiness, Embrace Ambiguity Fearlessly, Deliver Customer Happiness, Drive for Solutions, and Assume positive intent .

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO?

This is not your typical entry-level QA job. Yes, you'll test software—but you'll also dive into AI-powered tools, help troubleshoot customer issues, learn how complex systems behave in the real world, and grow your technical skills every day. You’ll be surrounded by experienced engineers who want to help you succeed—and push you to do your best work.

We see QA as the launchpad for a technical career, not a cul-de-sac. Whether your long-term interest lies in automation, systems engineering, or full-stack development, we’ll support your growth.

What You’ll Do:

  • Design and run manual and automated tests to ensure our SaaS platform is reliable, secure, and performs as expected.
  • Track and document bugs clearly, then collaborate with engineers to get them fixed.
  • Work closely with our product and implementation teams to validate new features and support customer onboarding.
  • Experiment with new testing tools—including AI-based approaches—to improve efficiency and coverage.
  • Own parts of our regression suite and contribute to making our CI/CD pipeline smarter and faster.
  • Propose improvements to the way we test, build, and ship, and help you explore.

REQUIREMENTS:  THE VALUE YOU WILL BRING!

  • Are curious, organized, and love breaking things (so they can be fixed).
  • Have programming skills (in Python, JavaScript, or similar).
  • Communicate clearly—especially when reporting bugs or asking for help.
  • Want to learn about real-world software delivery: releases, pipelines, customer-facing deployments.
  • Are excited to be hands-on and grow in a fast-moving startup.
  • Nice to haves:
    • Exposure to web automation frameworks or tools like Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright.
    • Familiarity with APIs and tools like Postman or Swagger.
    • Interest in AI/ML or LLM-based tools (we’ll teach you!).
    • Experience with Git, CI/CD tools, or cloud platforms like GCP or AWS.


COMPENSATION: 

The salary range estimate for this position is $72,700- $80,700  USD + equity. These numbers are based on our compensation philosophy and US national averages since, as a fully remote company, we do not adjust compensation based on location.

Ostro’s goal is to provide an inclusive and equitable work environment for current and future Ostronauts. In support of our core value of practicing radical honesty, we display our salary range for each job posting across all US locations, whether or not we are required to do so. Within that range, actual compensation is determined by several factors, including but not limited to skills, job expectations, and relevant training.

Our Talent Acquisition Partners can share more information on our compensation philosophy, during initial interviews. Please note that the compensation details listed in US role postings reflect the base salary only and do not include equity and benefits.

This role has an opportunity to make an immense impact on our growth, so if you are a take action individual we are excited to hear from you!

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
