Our focus is on improving testing skills, improving software quality, optimizing testing processes, and augmenting software testing resources in Asia and overseas.

Who is a Quality Engineer (QE)?
A Quality Engineer is a hybrid between a manual tester and an automation engineer.
Someone who weaves quality into the application during its development.
A QE increases the value of the application while ensuring faster delivery.
A QE thinks like a user and acts like an engineer to prevent bugs from being released to production.

Some companies have adopted the Quality Engineer title as a result of our advocacy for Quality Engineering, but what differentiates us is our holistic approach to Quality Engineering.
We are not only highly skilled in web test automation. We are well equipped with both manual and automation testing skills, functional and non-functional testing capabilities, and both traditional and modern approaches to testing.
Mission
Transition QAs into QEs to weave quality into software.

MEET OUR FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT
We are founded by Michelle Chua Lagare.
She has been in the software testing industry for two decades, she coined the term “Quality Engineering”, and pioneered the Quality Engineering mindset and practice in Asia back in 2013.
Her aim is to help transition Quality Assurance Analysts to Quality Engineers - hybrids of manual tester and programmer.
COMPANIES SHE HAS LED
Prior to establishing QE 360, Michelle served as the Quality Engineering Head of Voyager Innovations, the digital arm of the MVP Group, and PayMaya, a financial technology company and mobile payment app based in the Philippines. During her tenure, she successfully built elite Quality Engineering (QE) teams at both organizations.
PayMaya, now known as Maya, provides users with a digital wallet that facilitates various online and offline transactions using their mobile devices. It is recognized as the first prepaid online payment app that enables the financially underserved to make online payments without the need for a credit card.
In addition to her roles at Voyager Innovations and PayMaya, Michelle has also held leadership positions at other companies in the past. These include Willis Towers Watson, Branders, and ACS, a Xerox Company.
