QA Engineer II, QA Wolf

Hi, I’m Benjamin Linehan.

 

I’m a 23 year old Quality Assurance Engineer that is Irish born but currently based in Brisbane. I completed my training at General Assembly in 2021 where I studied a Software Engineering Immersive course remotely. Since then, I have joined the ‘wolf pack’ at QA Wolf where I have worked as a QA Engineer for just over two years as a member of their overnight coverage focused team.

 

My core strengths in the realm of software/quality assurance engineering lie in Playwright, Javascript, E2E testing, building and outlining testing suites and the maintenance of said suites. But one of the main passions that I utilise in my role is customer experience. I always operate in all aspects of my work day with a customer focused mindset in order to make magic for all of our clients.
