I lead software QA teams and improve testing quality across ecommerce, embedded, web, desktop, and mobile products.
What I'm looking for
I've led web quality assurance for Western Digital's ecommerce website and blog, serving as the primary liaison between QA teams and internal stakeholders.
I led four QA analysts, expanded coverage to include WCAG accessibility testing, managed Jira workflows, and improved test processes by shifting testing earlier in development.
Across Western Digital storage products, I validated manufacturing tools for nine NAS and six DAS product lines, coordinating defects through resolution with tool developers and OS/firmware engineering teams.
Earlier at Iteris, I directed software test team work, built requirements-based test procedures, coordinated cross-functional testing, and supported targeted service pack releases for customer-reported issues.
