IT Manager
IT Manager
Quality Center of Excellence (Automation) Aug 2016 - Oct 2018
The Testing Services Organization was the centralized QA organization for all of Centene’s software development efforts. I was hired to introduce test automation, and build a vision that would take the organization into the future. Because there was almost no automated testing being used when I joined, there were many green fields in this role. I selected 5 testers with the most coding skills and hired 35 more automation engineers over the 2 years in the role. I led the team to develop an automated framework, parallel execution tool, and introduced an agile development process for developing automation. Once the team began producing quality automation, I concentrated on building a roadmap for the future of the Centene Test Platform, which consisted of a single testing tool Gui, Test Data Management, Parallel test execution system with scheduled and remote test launch capabilities, common repository (Bitbucket) and automated security testing capabilities.
