About
I'm Fred Mottey, an engineer who cares about the systems that make good software possible: test frameworks people actually want to use, CI pipelines that give fast and honest answers, and the developer tooling that ties it all together.
Most recently I was Principal SDET at Expel, a cybersecurity company, where I served as a test automation and quality strategy lead. I'm passionate about tooling and strategies that make engineering teams ship faster, safer.
Outside of work I'm a husband and father, and I mentor high school and college students through a youth nonprofit in my area.
I'm also a productivity nerd and a sucker for a good pop-psych or self-help book.
What I'm looking for
Roles in quality engineering, developer experience, or platform engineering where testing and tooling are treated as product work.
