Team
We're a nimble team of humans working together to do big things.
Ashby is a remote-first company with colleagues working from 14 countries in North America and Europe. We meet in person at least once a year in Europe and in our office in San Francisco.

Something I'm proud of at Ashby...
I tested new features and wrote test plans, which expands QA coverage and helps the team quickly ship high quality features and updates to customers.
Something I've helped the team with...
I helped pilot various automated testing tools to help our team decide on what best helps our needs. In the process, I learned new testing tips and best practices that I documented to share what I've learned. The QA team is a learning driven team, and we continue to add new documentation and share our learnings because we each have different experiences.
Most surprising thing about Ashby...
I'm surprised at how much a completely remote team can accomplish. Ashby is constantly changing, with new features and updates that are well thought out and tested.
Something I'm proud of at Ashby...
I've defined our QA process from the ground up: from how new features get QA-ed to how bugs get repro steps to our test plans for each feature.
Something I've helped the team with...
I created a bug reporting process to bridge the gap between our customer service and engineering teams. Incoming bugs can quickly and smoothly be triaged and assigned to the right engineers for a fix.
Most surprising thing about Ashby...
One of the things that drew me to Ashby is still one of the things that most amazes me - that such a complex, impactful product can come to life with a small (so far!), mostly remote, focused team.
Something I'm proud of at Ashby...
I was able to find a security vulnerability in component used across Ashby. My report allowed our engineers to identify the issue and fix it!
Something I've helped the team with...
I wrote a guide on how to QA our developer API for the QA team. It has step by step instructions on how to generate an API key, what tools to use it with, and how to interpret responses from our API.
Most surprising thing about Ashby...
The team at Ashby exemplifies the saying, "Small but mighty!"
