Simon Kyger is a pragmatic SDET with nine years of hands-on QA, automation, and infrastructure experience, currently leading test efforts at CyOne. He builds and maintains Node-based front-end and API test suites, Jenkins pipelines, and reporting integrations, having been the sole dedicated tester on small product teams. Comfortable across stacks—from Postgres and middleware testing to managing hundreds of VMs and automating deployments—he favors JavaScript (ES6+) and functional patterns to minimize state in automation code. Simon is an active tinkerer and open-source maintainer who hosts demo projects and experiments publicly, reflecting a curiosity that spans game QA to server administration. Based in Morrisville, NC, he combines deep practical testing discipline with a systems mindset that surfaces subtle, environment-dependent bugs before they reach users.
