Emily O'Connor
Principal Quality Engineer
She/Her

Automation-savvy QE with a sixth sense for bugs. Avid learner and reader interested in decoding dev-speak to enable engineering teams. I believe good software starts with user-focused problem solving.

Great to hear about the kind of work you do as a Quality Engineer. SQEC leaners will enjoy learning from you.Β  image
