Florian Sommerfeldt

Quality Engineer

Quality engineer who enjoys designing, developing and testing products and services that solve people's real problems.
By collaborating, learning, exploring and experimenting.

Engineering

I have experience in developing single page applications, REST API backends and test automation frameworks. I have also worked on solution designs and have been involved in building cloud infrastructure.

Testing

I test highly complex and configurable systems through learning, knowledge management and experimentation. I collaborate to support my learning and to identify problems as early as possible. In this way I aim to improve services and products.

Improving

Successful software development is a challenge. I use my critical thinking and understanding of dependencies and processes to help people and organisations improve. Focusing on one small improvement at a time helps me make a difference over time.

Growth Mindset

Software development offers constant learning opportunities. These include business domains, technology stacks, tools and approaches. For me, it is a vast ocean of knowledge that I am eager to explore.

Teaching

Over the years, I’ve developed a toolkit to guide my approach to quality. I share this toolkit in a newsletter, offering practical guidance and also conducting workshops to help others create their own toolkit. In addition, I offer an in-depth course focused on risk-based testing.
