@williamda
I lead QA transformations through automation, AI testing agents, and in-house platforms.
What I'm looking for
I've led quality engineering for NewsBang at Shanda Group, driving automation and AI-powered testing while helping build GrandMirror and NewsBang from zero to one across backend, frontend, CI/CD, and infrastructure.
I architected Argus, a vision AI testing agent that reads BDD/Gherkin cases, autonomously operates applications, judges pass/fail results, and supports mobile, web, desktop, multi-device execution, root-cause classification, Figma test generation, and bidirectional MCP.
Previously, I owned market-data quality at Futu NiuNiu and MooMoo, where I led test-platform architecture and development. I also led client-side QA for Qidian Reading at China Literature and built platforms supporting Qidian Reading and Xiaoxiang Reading.
Across Tesla, iQIYI, Alibaba, and Datayes, I've delivered functional, automation, and performance testing and built platforms for traffic analysis, API testing, search experiments, and cloud products. I enjoy sharing technical knowledge and training QA and development teams in modern quality workflows.
