My first professional role within the games industry, was at Criterion Games. Working as a Quality Analyst. Criterion are well known for franchises like Burnout and Need for Speed. I was a Feature Tester across all projects in a variety of different areas ranging from UI to Game Modes.
I am passionate about DevOps, Automation & Tools. Since my early days in Software QA this has been a key point of interest, and something that I want to focus on.
I am self taught and excited about code. I started by making tweaks to website designs and working on plugins. In recent years I have expanded to C++, C# and other languages.
I am up to date on the latest tech in the gaming space.
I have almost 5 years of experience within Quality based roles. Comprising of a year within Software, with the rest within games.
