Ray Bloom Email & Phone Number

Ray Bloom is a Senior Software QA Engineer | Software Quality Assurance. Colleagues describe him as "Ray is the best diagnostician I've every worked with. His knowledge of a broad range of technologies and how they interact, his attention to detail, and his ability to keep track of multiple threads of a complex engineering problem make him a valuable asset to any software development/QA team." and "Ray is meticulous in how he approaches QA: Ray has a broad base of technical knowledge that enables him to understand both requirements and problems. When dealing with a defect, Ray always makes sure he can reproduce the problem and tests previous releases to determine when the problem was really introduced. Ray follows and validates the documentation that customers receive, which is invaluable, because developers doing tests rarely read the documentation. Ray makes sure that a fix actually addresses the problem statement. Ray doesn't hesitate to enter additional defects when he discovers new problems while testing (he avoids entering frivolous defects by getting clarifications from developers when in doubt). Ray takes the time to understand and test – not only the requirements and defects at hand, but also areas related to them – which enables him to catch regressions that others would miss."

Listed skills include Windows, Z/Vm, Z/Os, Linux On Ibm System Z, and 45 others.
