I have just been informed by Dayjob that my position is being eliminated. They aren't punting me out the door immediately, they're at least giving me 60 days' notice, but they are nonetheless punting me out the door. So joy oh glee, I get to go back on the job market. 😩 And try to find whatever few positions may remain in tech that a) involve as little AI bullshit as possible, b) will let me work remote, and c) are actually willing to hire a worker within shouting distance of 60. #FediHire #GetFediHired

Let's review: I'm an SDET, Software Development Engineer in Test. Or STE, Software Test Engineer. Whatever the acronym being used is, it boils down to, I'm good at writing automation to test stuff. My most recent work has been in Python, Java, and Swift, and I've tested both web and mobile in my career. For mobile that's primarily meant IOS. I'm experienced at manual testing and will absolutely not turn down any positions that involve THAT. I also write excellent wiki pages and documentation. If you want to see a live example of a wiki I've been the primary author for, let me direct you to: https://tuxborn.org/wiki/home/ Get me engaged on a topic and I will document the daylights out of it, is what I'm saying here. #FediHire #GetFediHired
