About

An experienced software & test engineer that understands change is a constant and that continuous learning is mandatory. Many years of working with startups and small businesses have been lessons in the need to diversify, because typically expertise in a range of skills is required. Philosophy: - An understanding of all parts of software development is an asset to teamwork and communication. - Testing is development: siloed separation of QA into a specialist role is fundamentally opposed to business needs. - A “one team” approach is vital to form an understanding with everyone involved, from developer to stakeholder to user to customer.
