   As Staff Software Developer and member of the TestMod leadership team at DAQA, I help define the technical vision and execution strategy for tools that modernize game QA. Our mission is to evolve game testing through better automation, smarter workflows, and developer-first tooling.I work cross-functionally with engineering, product, and architecture to turn fast-moving prototypes into scalable, production-grade software. My day-to-day includes system design, backend and frontend development (Go, React), CI/CD infrastructure, and mentoring teammates through code reviews and pairing.
