Senior🎓
Top SchoolKirk Wang is a senior software engineer with nine years of focused experience building test automation frameworks, API clients for SOAP and REST, and cloud-native services, currently driving vehicle simulation and E2E test coverage at Ford. He has a strong track record designing Java-based microservice clients and standalone tools (WireMock, Kafka-based ML training pipelines) that bridged testing, data science, and production teams to boost reliability and coverage. His work spans CI/CD, Kubernetes (Helm, ArgoCD), Go for pipeline improvements, and practical OAuth2 and AWS integrations, reflecting deep full-stack automation expertise. As a founder and frequent cross-functional collaborator, he blends entrepreneurial initiative with hands-on engineering to solve thorny integration and test-data challenges. Based in San Diego, he pairs an MS in Computer Engineering with a knack for turning complex protocols (FNV2, FIX) into robust, production-ready tooling.
