Software Engineer at Attentive
Hello, my name is Aaron Cordova. I am passionate about delivering meaningful products to users that improve their lives. I practice the lean philosophy of experimenting and iterating quickly. I believe that less is more and approach most problems this way. Including reducing user interface clutter, code complexity, and simplifying the architectural design

From the Cars.com earnings call:

Our new platform enabled a record number of site innovations in this last quarter, such as the launch of features like Salesperson Connect, which makes the consumer experience more intelligent, impactful and unique. With nearly all of our new product developments rolling out late September and early October, we're looking forward to seeing the full benefit and uplift in the quarters ahead. We are rapidly building and fortifying a strong long-term
position. We have assets including a brand that's synonymous with car shopping and ownership, a reputation for innovation, trusted relationships with dealers and OEMs and strong consistent free cash flow generation, all of which make us a significant force in a fragmented market.

My manager set me on this task with the commandment "Fix our automation stack". I began by talking with each person on the team to understand what they were trying to achieve (both with test automation specifically and more generally how they were attempting to evaluate the quality of their products), what was helping them do that, and what was hindering them from doing that. Simultaneously I surveyed the existing test automation and supporting infrastructure.

Through a series of these discussions I developed consensus about what the most important problems were. With that clear I iterated through a number of different potential solutions, mocking out test APIs, test cases, and product interactions to understand the pros and cons of each. I continued my discussions with the team (individually and in larger groups) to elicit feedback about my ideas and iterate to a design that simply and elegantly solved the problems they were concerned about.

With the basic principles and design in place, I worked with each team to flesh out the details for their particular areas while also ensuring the coalescing design worked for our individual feature teams, our team as a whole, everyone in the larger organization who needed to consume these new APIs, and external partners attempting to integrate into our testing infrastructure.

By the end we had a small set of well-defined and -scoped APIs that provided simple, clear, and consistent interfaces to driving and validating the system under test. We also had a design that scaled from these public APIs through to the lowest level of private API, providing a clear and consistent approach to testing our products regardless of level of detail, and providing clear and consistent guidance for how to evolve the framework in the face of future changes to both product and testing requirements.

        Aaron is one of the most exceptional engineers that I have had the pleasure of calling a colleague.  He is a true polyglot; not simply having a rote understanding of the syntactical difference between various technologies, but possessing an in-depth comprehension of the semantics and nuance that inform their respective strengths and weaknesses.  One of the more remarkable aspects of Aaron’s skill set is his efficiency.  He is a master of his ever-expanding toolset, and if the right tooling for a job doesn’t exist, he has the initiative to create it.
Aaron was a remarkable and invaluable team member at Exactuals.  The universal respect that his colleagues have for him is not just a result of his extraordinary technical acumen, but equally for his kind and generous disposition.

        Aaron and I worked together at Rural Sourcing. He is a highly skilled software engineer, leader, and entrepreneur.  His subject matter expertise with CI/CD, cloud services, java deployments, full-stack application architecture and agile methodologies is exceptional.  He never fails to provide anything less than the highest quality of work.  He strives to exceed client expectations and drives his teams to meet his rigor and commitment to success.  I highly recommend Aaron for any engagement.
