Senior🎓
Top SchoolJeff Ng is a Principal Software Development Engineer in Test based in California with 11 years of experience and a deep track record at Ancestry, where he progressed from QA Engineer to principal-level leadership. He excels at designing and executing pragmatic testing strategies across web, mobile, cross-browser and automation contexts, thriving under tight deadlines and high-traffic launches. His early work leading QA for high-profile projects like the 1940census.archives.gov rollout and the Archives.com transition demonstrates comfort with large-scale, mission-critical releases. Jeff blends hands-on scripting and automation experience (including legacy tools like IBM Rational Robot and VB.Net) with modern test engineering practices to reduce risk and accelerate delivery. Colleagues rely on him to anticipate user-driven failure modes and turn ad-hoc found bugs into repeatable regression protections. He pairs a B.S. in Computer Science with a practical, product-focused mindset that favors robustness over complexity.
