For a company that's strictly an online provider for payrolls, we needed to ensure that there were no inaccuracies in what the Business is requesting and what the Programmers produce. This is why we looked to Fernando to setup a QA process in-house to prevent any customers from being affected with the possibility of outages or inaccuracies from our product. QA is a process that is always overlooked with management to try and save on the bottom line. But once Fernando created processes to follow, we were able to avoid critical issues that may have cost losing several customers. While automating test scripts, he was able to save time during production checkout to ensure all the components were properly installed while always doing regression testing at the same time. This is why I recommend Fernando to any company that wishes to have QUALITY!

Fernando is the consummate team player. At AMG, he willingly took on additional responsibilities beyond his tasks to help the broader team make deadlines. He was comfortable expanding into areas requiring learning and delivered above expectations. I only hope to have the opportunity to work with Fernando in the future.
