Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Cox is a Director of IT Quality Assurance with 12 years of focused experience transforming QA from a gatekeeper role into an embedded, automation-first partner within agile teams. Based in Milwaukee, he has led enterprise test automation programs, built cross-browser and API-driven frameworks (Selenium, SpecFlow, Appium, RestSharp), and championed Shift-Left/Shift-Right CI/CD practices to accelerate delivery and reduce risk. He combines hands-on technical design—designing data-driven, BDD, and FP-styled reusable test modules—with people leadership, hiring and upskilling test engineers across distributed teams. David has driven measurable savings and cadence improvements (e.g., moving multi-month releases to monthly CI cycles and cutting localization costs) while representing QA to executive stakeholders. His background spans finance, manufacturing, retail, and energy systems, reflecting an ability to apply automation patterns across domains. Notably, he pairs practical tooling (Power BI reporting, CI integrations) with a consulting mindset that treats automation as a force multiplier for team creativity.

Django-deepzoom is a drop-in Django app for the creation and use of Deep Zoom tiled images. It handily integrates Daniel Gasienica's and Kapil Thangavelu's deepzoom.py image generator and the OpenSeadragon deep zoom viewer into a set of model classes and template tags which programmatically generate tiled images and all JavaScript necessary for their instantiation into templates.
