// Engineering Philosophy

Principles I build by

01.

Quality should move left.

02.

Automation should reduce repetitive engineering effort.

03.

AI should augment engineers, not replace engineering discipline.

04.

Test automation should be scalable, maintainable, and intelligent.

05.

Quality engineering should be part of the software development lifecycle — not an activity at the end.
