My Work Experience

Where I've interned and worked during my career.

Kwaliteits-Controle-Bureau | Mar 2022 - Present

Test Consultant (Beround assignment)

Self-regulated alternative splicing at the AHNAK locus. The Quality Control Bureau (KCB) is an independent administrative body (ZBO) and is managed by the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV) and the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA). The most important task of the KCB is to inspect fresh fruit and vegetables, cut flowers and pot plants. To facilitate these inspections of import and export products, which are tripling in numbers in regards to Brexit, KCB is building new applications. As a software tester at KCB, I work in a team who provides insights into the risk and quality of the newly build application and its associated backoffice support system. It is my responsibility to prepare and execute test scripts, and to report bugs. In addition, I give feedback on the Use Cases.
