Validation (SDET)/Development Consultant

Responsibilities:

Developed test plan design and test case documentation for IoT retail system. Included functional, performance and reliability plans.
Proactively developed several docker containers (using golang, bash, python) for use as validation test fixtures. This was not a requirement for the test team, but I felt it necessary to more fully validate the cloud and corresponding gateway cloud agent. Ended up discovering several issues with the agent software. These issues would have affected later developed products.
Lead Validation of Rancher OS based gateway machine functionality using cloud and Edge RESTful API with Python. Developed automated test suites.
Dockerized a graphical digital signage app. This allowed the product to work on platforms where it might have issues on the native hardware.
Part of C++ (11/14/17) development team of Qt-based retail application.
