QA/Integrations/SQM and how to avoid rejection was one of the skills taught hands-on AFTER university by the great masters who were unceremoniously forced into other occupations like: auto leasing, banner print shop, etc. when they were forced to crack open their 401Ks to make their house and family support payments in spite of the dot com bubble crashing the NASDAQ and related capX for six miserable years.
For example, at 16, my QA manager (whose husband had a Nobel Prize) and my tech lead (who wrote malloc/free for Unix and was learning VMS from me as fast as I could learn C from him) were totally opposite forces, separated by HR and different directors. QA didn’t code anything but batch jobs/shell scripts and contracted back to Engineering for any apps they wanted (or simply required them to be in the release package). If you wanted to keep your job, you didn’t submit programs with performance/functional deficiencies and definitely not logic issues as compared to the SPEC that all parties signed at the outset of the project (put that in yoh Kan Ban, Man rofl)
Ok another arrogant post from older former child prodigy! Happy Holidays!
