About me

Enterprise software experience, working for your business

Alessandro Iovane giving a talk

I'm Alessandro Iovane, an IT consultant and software developer. I'm based in Cagnano Varano, Italy, and work with businesses on site or remotely.

I have a decade of experience at a multinational software company headquartered in California. It builds a platform that large enterprises and public bodies use to create websites, portals, intranets and e-commerce. There I did two jobs: first in quality, then in product.

2017–2023

Software quality

My job was to make sure the software worked before every release, up to the role of Senior QA Engineer.

  • Manual and exploratory testing of new features
  • Automated end-to-end tests, written with proprietary frameworks and then with Playwright
  • TDD and BDD, with scenarios written in language that non-developers can read
  • Release regression testing, handling flaky tests, test data prepared via API
  • Choosing the right test level (end-to-end, integration, unit) and managing the bug lifecycle
2023–2026

Product Owner

I led the development of three areas of the platform: the design system, user management (User Roles & Permissions: users, organisations, roles and permissions) and B2B e-commerce (catalogues, price lists, orders and approval workflows).

  • Organising work with Scrum and Kanban
  • Prioritising with RICE (reach, impact, confidence, effort) and the Kano model, which separates what customers take for granted from what delights them
  • Backlog, user stories with acceptance criteria, and roadmaps
  • Coordinating design, development, QA and support

Today

Today I work independently and bring the same method to businesses. First I understand how you work. Then I choose a tool that already exists, and I build only when it's really needed. That's why we start with the check-up.
