Quentin is based in Montreal and graduated with a master’s in Software Engineering from École des Hautes Études d’Ingénieur in 2020. He joined Wiley Edge in September 2020 and is now Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) for one of the largest banks in Canada.
We spoke to him to find out what being a Development Engineer involves, how he tests applications and learn about the 20-year-old project he’s working on.
He also shares with us how he found it moving to Montreal and his tips for graduates that are considering relocating too.
"I’m originally from France and came to Montreal in August 2018 to do my master's. I graduated in April 2020 and began researching jobs; I didn't have success in finding anything for a few months. I was approached by an Wiley Edge recruiter on LinkedIn and it seemed like a really interesting opportunity.
The process of joining Wiley Edge was really smooth and easy. You're really well guided through the process. From the moment I was approached through to the end of the training, the team made sure that everything was okay."
"I knew that the software development in banks is really interesting because there is a huge aspect of security. The idea of handling the security in such a domain would be interesting.
It's been a really good experience. I’m glad to have joined a team that's really dynamic. They’re always open to suggestions and it's really interesting to be able to bring in your perspective as a new employee."
