Leigh Rathbone
Head of Quality Engineering
I’ve been in the craft of testing for 24 years, mostly in leadership roles, and feel as passionate about testing now, as I did in my first year. I’ve had many roles, from testing the world’s first touchscreen smartphone, to heading up Sony PlayStation European Test Operations, to Head of test for a clinical software firm. I’ve currently made the jump across to Engineering Manager and a company called cinch
I’m a huge advocate of self-development, and sharing your learnings from that self-development. I've spoken at over 50 conferences and meetups, ran meetups, and compered at Testbash, Swanseacon, and Manchester tech festival
