Tomas Rivera

QA Automation Engineer

Profile

QA automation engineer who thinks quality is a design problem, not a gate at the end. Six years building test suites people trust enough to ship on. I chase flaky tests like bugs, keep the pipeline fast, and I would rather prevent a defect than log a pretty report of it.

Experience

QA Automation Engineer

2021 to Present
Northloop Software
  • Built the end-to-end suite that gates every deploy; caught regressions that had been reaching production monthly.
  • Cut CI runtime 55% by parallelizing tests and killing the flaky ones instead of retrying them.
  • Pair with developers on testability so bugs get designed out before they are written.

QA Engineer

2017 to 2021
Proving Ground Games
  • Owned release testing for a live product with weekly updates and zero tolerance for save-corruption bugs.
  • Wrote the first automated smoke tests, replacing a two-hour manual checklist before each build.

A tinted band across the top holds your name and contact details; everything below it stays a clean single column with chip-style headings. Takes its colour from your theme, so it looks deliberate rather than decorated.

Marcus Bello

Senior Software Engineer

Profile

Backend-leaning full-stack engineer with nine years building and scaling web services. I like taking a slow, flaky system and making it boring: clear boundaries, good tests, and dashboards that tell the truth. Comfortable owning a feature from database schema to production rollout.

Experience

Senior Software Engineer

Larkfield Systems
2020 to Present
  • Re-architected the billing service around an event queue, cutting failed charges by 40% and making retries auditable.
  • Cut median API latency from 480ms to 120ms by profiling hot paths and adding a read-through cache.
  • Mentor three engineers and run the team's design-review rotation.

Software Engineer

Cartwright Commerce
2016 to 2020
  • Built the checkout API serving 2M orders a month across web and mobile clients.
  • Introduced integration tests to a legacy codebase, taking release rollbacks from weekly to rare.

Recommendations

Marcus is the person you want on the incident bridge: calm, fast, and he fixes the cause, not the symptom.

Clean

Profile

Product manager who starts from the problem, not the feature. Seven years shipping B2B and consumer products, most of them in messy zero-to-one territory. I write the crisp one-pager, get engineering and design pointed the same way, and cut scope without cutting the point.

Experience

Tandem Mobile

Senior Product Manager · 2021 to Present
  • Own the activation funnel; a rebuilt onboarding flow lifted week-one retention from 34% to 51%.
  • Killed two underused features and redirected the roadmap toward the workflow customers actually asked for.
  • Run a lightweight discovery cadence: five customer calls a week feeding a public problem backlog.

Kestrel Apps

Product Manager · 2018 to 2021
  • Launched the team-plan tier, which grew to a third of revenue within a year.
  • Partnered with data to replace opinion-led prioritization with a simple impact-versus-effort model the whole team trusted.
