Software Development Engineer in Test
I build the checks that keep a release from breaking the services around it.
I came up through manual QA and moved into automation, and today I work mostly on contract testing across microservices. What I keep coming back to is trust: a suite that fails for real reasons, and a failure that points straight to the cause someone can fix.
