Technical Resume

Senior Test Engineer, Google DeepMind 2024 - present/Senior Test Engineer, Health AI, Google Research 2021 - 2024

Currently I work on the Safety Benchmarking team for personal LLM models and perform adversarial testing to ensure we are aligning with Google's stated AI Principles

I'm indulging in guardrail and red team research given future models ability to handle and remember larger datasets.

I also work with Software Engineers and Quality, Regulatory, Safety and Trust to build tests and tooling that support some Health AI efforts.

Including:

Test Engineering Tech Lead - Google Cloud Platform Accessibility Horizontal, Google 2019 - 2021

This cross GCP horizontal was created to aid in getting all features to publish VPATs (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) which certify Section 508 compliance.

This was a cross functional collaboration between Engineering, Program and Product Management, as well as UX and UX research. 


Senior Test Engineer, Google Cloud Platform, Google 2013 - 2016, 2019 - 2021 

GCP is the unified console UI for all Google developers on Cloud Platform

Senior Test Engineer, Google/Apple Exposure Notifications, Google 2020

Authored initial server side test plan

Test Engineer, Intern Host - People and Sharing - Google 2019

I developed a project which added auto filing bug functionality for our stability and performance dashboard for Web Contacts for when exceptions fell outside of a threshold defined by a ML model.

Hosted a very smart intern who could actually do the ML bit.

Senior Test Engineer, People and Sharing - Google 2016 - 2019

A sampling of launches and integrations

All that cross discipline organization (UX, PM, SWE).

Some highlights:

People Stack Configurations Tool

I designed a visualization tool for People Stack which showed configurations per client, component, and platform. 

This tool was created in response to postmortems resulting from mis-configurations in our client/people stack integrations.

More on client integrations

Clients of People Stack need varying degrees of test support, this requires the test process and strategy need to be worked out separately for every new major client.  


complexity on this project was rather high as these clients were often:


Test Engineer, Cape Air Passenger Service System, ITA Software/Google 2008 - 2013

Ah, airline software - my first love.

I worked mainly in testing legacy airline system communications with our new XML based system.

I developed the test plan for GDS/OAL Messaging and worked within our in house java test bed framework to author automated acceptance and regression tests. Additionally I was involved in peer coaching & Mentoring for GDS/OAL Test Automation.

I spent 16 lovely days at Hyannis airport as agent launch support.

I know this is a big question and still noted in many job listings. So here we go.


I used to have my interview preferences in Java, which is to say it is my preferred 'program yourself out of a box in an emergency' language. 

However, according to my change stats in the past ten years I have submitted code in the following:

Python, Javascript, Typescript, HTML, and shell.
