Summary
Louis K is a Staff Software Developer based in Ottawa with 9 years of experience specializing in SQA, SDET, and cloud-native development, currently leading reliability and automation efforts at Trend Micro. He combines deep test methodology expertise—from API/UI automation and performance/stress testing to security and serverless testing—with hands-on skills in Python, Java, Linux, and AWS. Louis has built and integrated Robot Framework-based CI/CD pipelines, designed kernel and endpoint detection test automation, and scaled load testing with Gatling and Locust across distributed teams. He’s comfortable operating across the full test lifecycle and has driven shift-left/shift-right strategies to catch design defects early in multi-region projects. Certified in multiple AWS and Trend Micro trainings, he also brings a practical DevOps mindset (Jenkins, Grafana, Kibana) and a knack for turning complex legacy-data validation into automated dashboards and regression tooling. Notably, his background includes low-level Linux kernel test tooling and malware-detection validation, reflecting an uncommon blend of platform- and security-focused QA engineering.
