Quality Engineering to deliver valuable software with Quality at Speed.

I’m Antoine Craske, the founder of the QE Unit. I have personally been involved in challenging software delivery over the last 12 years:

• Contributed to La Redoute company digitalization in 4 years achieving 45% to 95%+ online sales, starting from -50m€ annual losses to positive ones, passing from 3000 to 1500 FTEs.
• Lead a 50+ engineering team by influence during 8 months without any week-end in a Phoenix project experience to help save the company’s modern backbone implementation.
• Built a lean software factory in 3 years streamlining software activities and evolving to a modern cloud architecture, and open-sourcing products like Cerberus Testing.

Overall, I experienced the software lifecycle through positions of coding, quality assurance, project management, engineering management, IT management, architecture. I have seen repeated patterns of lack of transversality between functions leading to inefficient systems. 

Even if we gracefully accept DevOps as a concept, we still approach software in silos.

I created the QE Unit to share, learn and co-create on the theme of Quality Engineering. This community is not limited to particular positions or roles, on the contrary. This media is valuable for anyone wanting to learn how to deliver valuable software through Quality at Speed.

I am convinced that increasing the frequency and diversity of interactions between peers, public and private institutions helps to find efficient global solutions. This is one reason why I dedicate time to animation and contribution to communities.

If you have any suggestion or comment, feel free to share by reaching me on the contact page. I would be happy if you decide to join the community where I share weekly updates on the theme of Quality Engineering far from social media.
