GE Healthcare
When I joined the GE CT department, the R&D team released a new version every 2 weeks. During these 2 weeks between the versions, the QA team could test manually only around 10% of the cases when they picked some random images and compared 2 versions visually side by side. The main purpose was to automate as much of the manual testing as possible. So I wrote 30-40 automation tools in different languages and frameworks which made the QA team’s lives much easier over the time. Some of the tools were: As a result, when I left the company, the QA team could test 100% of the cases using my tools set. More than that, they were getting all the results automatically by email in just 2 hours instead of 2 weeks.
Healarium
Healarium was a startup company that developed a product that helped US company employees to improve their health. It’s all started following Obama’s Health Care Reforms and worked like that: Big US companies did some health insurance for their employees. The companies also took care of giving the employees individual programs for stopping smoking, losing weight, etc…. Then, the employees were competing and chatting with each other in order to reach their health improvement goals. And once they reached these goals, they got some prices from the company, like gift cards, for example. The employer on the other hand could reduce his health insurance payments for these employees so everyone was on the winning side. The platform was divided into 3 main parts: I joined the R&D team in the company and helped them to develop new features and solve the most sophisticated problems. As well, I helped integrate Agile procedures inside the team. We used Django (Python) on the backend side and Backbone (Javascript) on the frontend side.
