Summary
Lew Bloch is a principal-level testing engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience building test frameworks and CI/CD orchestration for regulated medical devices, consumer apps, and large-scale analytics systems. He has a track record of delivering greenfield automation platforms—from Appium-based mobile screenshot pipelines at Medtronic to a portable GitHub Actions orchestration for Dexcom’s CGM radio firmware—and consistently turns manual workflows into high-throughput, auditable systems. Comfortable across Windows, Linux, macOS, and embedded Linux on Raspberry Pi, he blends deep software chops with hardware test integration for radio and fare-collection systems. At companies from Google and LinkedIn to Teradata and Intuit he has introduced new testing paradigms (BDD, performance chaining, orchestration) that measurably improved cycle time and quality. Based in Lexington, KY, he pairs a theoretical mathematics background with a hobbyist passion for electronics and radio that informs pragmatic, systems-level test design. Notably, his orchestration and screenshot-generation work continue to run in production years after delivery, underscoring durable, maintainable engineering.
