Senior🎓
Top SchoolDustin Kinney is a Senior SDET with over a decade of experience designing full‑stack test automation and reliability strategies for consumer products at scale, currently shaping Alexa Shopping’s organization‑wide testing frameworks at Amazon. He blends software design, Java/Python automation (Selenium, Appium), and AWS orchestration to lower qualification costs while improving customer experience across web, mobile, services, firmware and electromechanical systems. Known for translating field data into targeted test suites and scaling CI/CD canaries and release pipelines, he also mentors engineers and converts QAEs into SDET roles. His background in reliability engineering at HP taught him to simplify processes—once reducing qualification cost by 90%—and to apply risk‑based test design across complex ecosystems. Outside work he’s an avid reader and world traveler, which he leverages to bring a customer‑centric, cross-cultural perspective to product quality.
