Quality is suffering from the Perfect Fit for QA not being found? Ease this Pain instantly – Without Compromises

The Comprehensive Consulting Package for a Software-Project with complete Availability

The Challenge

Quality must be continuously maintained so that it remains high in the long term. But what to do if the shortage of skilled workers makes it difficult to fill the position with exactly the right person? Testing must be picked up by the team, but this is only a makeshift solution. Bugs keep finding their way into production. The users become dissatisfied, the devs have been for a long time. Negative feedback from stakeholders and investors is also not long in coming and soon the team sinks into stress and chaos. A trend that reinforces itself.

  • Loss of Reputation and Revenue: First the reputation suffers, then the first users drop out - who are difficult to win back, if at all. A little later, sales plummet and things get really dangerous.
  • Poor ratings: The score plummets. Damage that may be irreparable - the app stores' algorithms have no mercy.
  • Complaints: These are piling up, which not only makes the support team sweat, but also turns them and the redress process into a real cost factor.
  • Regulatory problems: We all have to comply with data protection; depending on the industry, there are additional requirements that are sometimes difficult to handle and create problems that become all the more difficult to resolve as time goes on.
  • Time to fill: During this time, the position is not vacant - the team has to pick up the work. This is only a makeshift solution and is associated with stress in the short term, dissatisfaction and resignations in the medium term and even health problems in the long term.

Use Time to Fill wisely Ensure the new Hire has a good start

Thanks to the comprehensive consulting, all the problems that are now acute are solved in no time at all. I bring all my experience to the team to make this solution sustainable. Not only does the day-to-day business immediately go from being a burden for everyone to a properly processed item, all other process issues can also be tackled with the necessary care so that a new team member has the best possible start straight away. A handover is a matter of course for me and ensures a smooth transition without any loss of productivity. German "Scheinselbstständigkeit" is not an issue to worry about: with my many years of experience in the matter, I have not only developed a protection concept against the problem (available for download in the footer); I also work with specialized law firms for all eventualities.

Interview

Holistic Consulting

We can start the Freelance-Consulting instantly – subject to availability. As soon as we decided to work together during the interview, we can usually start on the following Monday. The Project can be finished at any time.

Profit from my Extensive Experience instantly

The start can take place immediately if available, so that the problems caused by day-to-day business that has come to a standstill are IMMEDIATELY a thing of the past. I not only check the ongoing new development. I also take care of test automation and, with the trained eye of a certified Scrum Product Owner®, I am also happy to take a look at requirements and associated processes to uncover any dormant potential. So that the team can deliver its best performance in the shortest possible time.

  • Secure sales: Satisfied users don't look around for alternatives. Let's not give them a reason to.
  • Convenient user flows: Inspire users with details instead of presenting them with problems. Little things often make all the difference - let's take a look at them.
  • Happy support: The lack of complaints makes the support happy. And Cheap.
  • A proud development team: everyone wants to work on a product they can be proud of. Let's make sure that what looks good today becomes a sparkling diamond tomorrow.
  • Use time to hire to add value: Instead of splitting the work between people who have a different role, we use the time together to make the team better and prepare the position in the best possible way - So possibly even a junior can do it!

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can we start?

Subject to availability. Usually, we start the following monday. If your processes and flexibility allow this, we can do that even earlier. The market is moving fast and so do I.

What is incorporated?

My extensive experience from over 10 years in the IT industry. I not only work as a tester on the product, but also pursue a holistic approach to quality assurance. As a certified Scrum Product Owner®, I am happy to take an appreciative look at the upcoming initiatives and documentation as early as the requirements process if desired.

Is it enough?

A development team is more than well catered for in the consulting package. Because I think and act like an entrepreneur, every one of my activities is subject to an uncompromising focus on efficiency, which is also reflected in my work.

How should that work?

I am the team's permanent point of contact for all quality issues and attend meetings at my own discretion to check whether they are appropriate and efficient. All the while, I think entrepreneurially and make sure that nothing is left undone - even niche topics are given an appreciative look.
