We are almost ready! Our scientists are in the final preparations for the start of embedded world 2025 in Nuremberg so that we can welcome you tomorrow in hall 4 at our booth 422. This year, it's all about security testing and embedded edge AI. Our motto is “Intelligent - efficient - connected”. We will be there from March 11 to 13, come by! We look forward to your visit!

It's coming up, and I can't wait: #FroGSConf. A week from now, Saturday. I have a hands-on session in mind I want to run on #testing, but I also would like to do one on #QualityEngineering and the practical change to allow quality to be everyone's business. https://frogsconf.nl - and yes, it's free, open-space, and absolutely lovely.
February is the perfect time to start working on your CAST 2025 Speaker Proposals! If you are a seasoned speaker or are an expert in a tool or method, this is your chance to make a real impact in the larger testing and quality community!
Check out our update for more information and even more topic ideas to get you started! https://lnkd.in/dFSpRZQ9
Personally, I'm keen to learn about places looking for specialized generalists like me who thrive on building great products that deliver value together with great people. Especially, if there's a clear focus on security to protect people and prevent harm.
Boosting for reach is appreciated - thank you!

Fair warning: this is a long post, but what else to expect from an experience report covering six months in a dynamic environment. 
An #Introduction post:
I’m Pat. I work as an #EngineeringManager in #QualityEngineering. We are a #DevOps / #LeanStartup system.
I’m also an #Adjunct instructor in a masters program in #Seattle, teaching courses that touch on issues in #SpiritualFormation, #Spirituality, #CelticChristianity, #Pilgrimage, #DigitalPersonhood, #Contemplative, #Monasticism, #TransformationalLeadership, #ServantLeadership.
Hobbies: #MountainBiking, #mtb, #powerlifting, #urbansketching, #motorcycling, #overlanding.
My current philosophy on software quality:
1. Things are never good enough.
2. If you're lucky, you get to make most of the decisions about what kind of not good enough you get.
3. If you're not actively creating an environment where you're lucky, the only thing you'll get to do is play catch-up.

Spoiler: the lessons are visibility, connections and patience.

Gwen Diagram's keynote at #AgileTD on Happiness is Quality was insightful. Great Engineering teams run in Quality, Observability and Communication indeed. Great pointers for Engineering Principles to build a Quality Product & questions to raise to foster a great environment in which to build in. Highlighting metrics to use & ways to bridge common communication gaps. Thanks Gwen & @AgileTDZone!
