Summary
Ricky Ang is a software engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in test automation and quality engineering, currently contributing to Elastic. He has progressed from QA roles to a software engineering position, building robust CI pipelines and automated test suites with tools like Selenium, Nightwatch, Robot Framework, Jenkins and internal Golang tooling. Ricky has a practical knack for reducing regression risk through targeted test suites, smoke tests, and daily automated checks that surface issues early in the development cycle. Educated in software engineering at UBC, he blends hands-on scripting and automation with documentation and onboarding efforts that boost team productivity. Less obvious: he pairs customer-facing empathy developed in retail and service roles with technical rigor, which helps him translate user issues into reproducible, testable engineering requirements.
