About Laura Prigoff

I am a motivated professional with a passion for process optimization and commitment to high quality data. Throughout my career, I have cultivated a unique blend of technical expertise and project management skills, enabling me to drive successful outcomes for organizations. I am a knowledge sponge who loves to become a subject matter expert with whatever systems I am using.In my most recent role as a QA Automation Engineer, I took the lead in automation work by developing JavaScript tests that increased our automated test coverage by 37%. Beyond automation, I played a pivotal role in enhancing efficiency through the creation of documentation, including process documentation, Jira board management, and the development of training materials. My commitment to delivering exceptional user experiences extended to my role as the voice of the customer, prompting critical changes in product design. I was the default Jira expert and loved digging into JQL/SQL to make and refine queries and boards that the team relied on.In addition to my automation work, I took on the role of Associate Product Manager, collaborating with another engineering team to integrate a new GraphQL service. This involved leading investigation conversations, tracking, reporting, and collaborating with our engineering team to ensure seamless integration. This experience strengthened my skills and my ability to coordinate and deliver successful projects.Furthermore, I proudly served as the Access Indeed Americas iRewards Lead, representing a community of over employees. My journey at Indeed began as a Quality Assurance Engineer, where I progressed from L I to L II. In these roles, I championed quality at all stages of development, conducted comprehensive testing, optimized processes, and ensured smooth releases. My contributions to usability advocacy and documentation further reinforced my project management capabilities.Before my career in QA, I held positions in finance and accounting and served as a Donor Relations Specialist at the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. This diverse background equips me with a unique perspective and a well-rounded skill set, which I leverage in my roles.I hold a Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Public Health and African American Studies from Muhlenberg College.I thrive on challenges, continuous learning, and the opportunity to collaborate with talented teams to deliver exceptional results.
