Hi there! I’m Kylee Tilley, a software engineer with over 10 years

I broke into the industry as a tester at a small startup that
58-
frequently deployed and demoed its product to investors. This
59-
experience taught me how critical software quality is to the
60-
business—especially as I observed how development practices
61-
directly impacted the app's reliability. To help keep up with the
62-
rapid pace of development (one-week sprints), I implemented
63-
extensive test automation, which eventually allowed me to take on
64-
development work. This shift gave me more control over the quality
65-
of the product.

After the startup, I moved into software delivery consulting,
70-
bringing my experience in both development and testing. I spent my
71-
time pairing and mobbing with teams to implement application code
72-
while advocating for better testing practices—asking about
73-
potential test scenarios, encouraging developers to update
74-
end-to-end browser tests, and generally influencing how teams
75-
thought about testing as an integral part of development.

The more I worked as both a developer and tester, the more I saw a
80-
deep connection between good implementation design and
81-
testability. My "tester spidey sense" would tingle during story
82-
refinement or while pairing on a feature. I had learned through
83-
experience—often painful experience—how certain design decisions
84-
could create testing headaches. Over time, I developed a strong
85-
intuition for spotting trouble before it happened, and my
86-
technical background allowed me to address it effectively. Being
87-
able to wear both hats at the same time turned out to be a major
88-
superpower.

Over my career, I've worked across multiple industries, helping
93-
organizations design and build greenfield applications, modernize
94-
legacy systems, optimize workflows, and establish best practices
95-
in development, testing, and delivery. My expertise spans the
96-
entire software lifecycle—from early product discussions to
97-
defining robust testing strategies, building automation
98-
frameworks, and mentoring teams on implementing scalable,
99-
testable, maintainable software.

cooking, and synthesizers. I love to learn new things, so this
