Simon Rigler
QA Leader + Coach + Engineer

Bitten by the Testing bug ๐Ÿžvia a 'fell into it' secondment in 2004. Iโ€™ve since had a variety of roles and been in โ€˜Qualityโ€™ leadership positions since 2012. Being hands-on is in my DNA, I donโ€™t wish to lead any other way. In recent years Iโ€™ve learned test automation development skills alongside the management role and I enjoy coaching interested people embarking on this technical testing journey ๐Ÿ’œ
