Quality Assurance for your Software

Reduce risk, ship faster: I stabilize your software QA in just a few days, so releases become plannable again and critical bugs are caught before they reach production.

Quality Assurance for your Software

For CTOs & Tech Leads at Fast-Paced Software Startups

Too many Bugs in your Release?

Does this sound familiar?

  • Releases fail before deployment
  • Tests are missing or unreliable
  • Bugs are going to Production
  • QA is reactive
  • Noone has an Overview

Every bug in a release costs the team time, trust, and focus.
This is exactly where I can help you—with a pragmatic, hands-on approach.

  • Senior QA Consultant with 10+ years of experience
  • Specialized in software startups
  • Ready to start immediately – no lengthy onboarding
  • Focused on sustainable test automation

From Chaotic Releases to Stable Deployments

We are going to fix that doing the following:

Here's what we'll analyze:

✔ your test strategy ✔ potential for E2E, integration, and regression tests ✔ your existing test coverage

After just one hour, you'll know where you stand and which steps are worth it for your situation.

Here's what you'll get:

✔ A framework in the language you already use ✔ The most important test cases, fully automated ✔ Integration into your delivery pipeline

So in the first step, you won't have to worry about a thing.

If you want to go even further:

✔ A clear, actionable test strategy ✔ Processes tailored to your legal environment & team ✔ Legal compliance handled with minimal manual effort

If your release is shaky, you don’t need theory

You need someone who can quickly get up to speed with your software, spot the risks, and eliminate them before your users do.

You’ll work directly with me as a Senior QA Consultant. No overhead, no handoffs, no wasted time. I understand the reality of startups: tight deadlines, high pressure, and rapid releases.

My Track Record

A selection of projects I completed successfully:

Assignment: We're switching to the new SAP release. Please make sure test coverage is established.

Procedure: I developed a test concept for the project that defines a clear hierarchy, processes and responsibilities. As a result, I made myself obsolete: everything that landed on my desk was handled through the process.

Result: The release switch – a project with hundreds of people involved – was not only completed on time. No major crises occurred along the way.

Assignment: Please introduce testing to our IT department.

Procedure: Working closely together with the teams, I introduced different procedures on how to integrate tests into their way of working.

Result: As everybody could proceed like how it fits best for them, processes were accepted easily which reduced the bugs in production to almost 0.

Assignment: Help us with our Automation.

Procedure: Together with the customers team, we put the code base to a healthy state. For this, I introduced new standards, refactored plain JavaScript to TypeScript and parallelized the tests.

Result: Not only the tests provided more and more helpful data for all stakeholders. The Build Time was cut in half which sustainably increased acceptance for the tests and the development of new features.

Assignment: Help us with Testing & Compliance

Procedure: Looking at Process & Requirements as whole I found duplicates in documentation and way of working. As well I connected open ends and made the process sleek. Now, every task has to be done only once.

Result: By reducing duplicates, with every quarterly release the client saves a lot of time. Also, bugs are found earlier. The customers Quality Management department is happy as well: Complaints have dropped to almost 0.
