Dutch Vet is transforming veterinary care by making expert treatment accessible anytime, anywhere. Our mission is simple: help every pet live their happiest, healthiest life by connecting pet parents with licensed vets through seamless virtual visits.
We’re the only veterinary telemedicine service that can diagnose, prescribe, and ship medications directly to customers in most states. For less than $100 per year, Dutch offers real relief and convenience for pets and their families.
As one customer put it: “Dutch was the only site that would diagnose and prescribe meds as well as ship the meds.”
Here’s what other customers have said about Dutch Vet:
"The easiest vet visit you'll ever have.”
"More thorough than my in-person vet.”
"No nonsense, quick, easy and friendly veterinarian. Much cheaper than our regular local vet that couldn’t get us in. So glad I found Dutch!"
Backed by world-class investors including Forerunner Ventures, Eclipse Ventures, and Bling Capital, our team is made-up of successful startup founders (Hims, PlushCare, Nasty Gal) with expertise in scaling enterprises (TripAdvisor, Walmart, BARK). Featured in TechCrunch, Forbes, Wired, and Axios, Dutch is setting the standard for quality, accessibility, and compassion in pet care.
We are seeking an SDET (Software Development Engineer in Test) to own test infrastructure and quality strategy across our applications. You'll work as a partner to the engineering team — designing test frameworks, driving testability standards, and building automation that catches regressions across the full testing pyramid. You will report to the Director of Quality Assurance
Design and maintain the Playwright-based test framework architecture, including page object patterns, test data management, and CI integration
Drive a testability contract with developers (data-testid standards, API test hooks) and advocate for testable architecture in design and code reviews
Own the testing strategy across the pyramid — ensure the right tests exist at the right layer (unit, integration, E2E) rather than pushing everything to the browser
Build and maintain tiered CI pipelines: smoke on deploy, regression nightly, full suite weekly
Automate revenue-critical and marketing-critical flows (checkout, registration, analytics/tracking, SEO validation)
Write production monitoring tests that verify system and vendor availability (Stripe, Calendly, fulfillment integrations)
Identify, triage, and track bugs with clear reproduction steps and root cause analysis
Partner with engineering, product, and customer support to review requirements and provide early feedback on testability and risk
5+ years in a software engineering or SDET role with strong programming fundamentals
Hands-on experience building test frameworks from scratch (Playwright preferred, but equivalent experience with Cypress or similar accepted)
TypeScript or JavaScript proficiency — you'll be writing framework code, not just test scripts
Experience designing CI/CD test pipelines (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, or similar)
Understanding of the testing pyramid and a track record of pushing tests to the appropriate layer
Experience partnering with developers on testability standards (data-testid contracts, API test hooks, code review for test coverage)
Familiarity with API testing, network-layer assertions, and mocking/stubbing third-party integrations
Experience with mobile test automation (Maestro or Appium) is a plus
Familiarity with monitoring, availability testing, or SRE-adjacent practices is a plus
Competitive salary range between $85K - $110K CAD

Leveraging the power of telehealth, Dutch helps pet parents get to the roots of their pets' conditions by making vet visits convenient and accessible. Unlike scheduling a traditional veterinary appointment for an unignorable pain point, Dutch allows owners to connect with a medical professional from their smartphone, whenever the need arises. By increasing visitation frequency, vets and vet specialists are able to develop a comprehensive treatment plan for your pets so their quality of life is the best it can be.
Everything we do is based in science and focuses on putting your animal’s comfort first. All prescription and non-prescription products prescribed by Dutch’s team of veterinarians are medical-grade and widely supported in the veterinary science community.
