Summary
Shannon Mcrae is a Senior Software Engineer in Test with 12 years of experience building automated testing frameworks and reliable QA pipelines across embedded, web, and cloud-connected products. Based in Rochester, NY, she has driven test automation at Honeywell and Carrier after honing API and web-service testing skills with UFT, Selenium, Rest Assured, C#, Java, and NodeJS. Comfortable across the stack, she combines hands-on framework development (including a C#/NancyFX hackathon API) with practical DevOps tooling like Jenkins, Perforce/Git, and Rally/Jira in agile teams. Known for a quality-first mindset, she pairs technical rigor with strong collaboration tendencies (Myers–Briggs ESFJ, McQuaig: Cooperator) to reduce regression risk and accelerate delivery. Notably, her background spans both security-adjacent firmware work and research-driven code analysis, giving her a rare cross-domain perspective on reliability and vulnerability mitigation.
