Software testing and Quality Assurance (QA) is a much needed service in today's high-tech, always on, there's-a-software-or-app-for-everthing economy. However, testing software before it reaches the commercial market takes an intense eye for detail and requires a lengthy attention span to uncover any inconsistencies or bugs in the software. That is, in part, why Aspiritech exists. The organization helps software developers with their testing and Quality Assurance. Aspiritech has a secret weapon to their QA success: Autism. Aspiritech hires and trains autistic adults who have an aptitude for technology, and a keen eye, and attention span, for details and spotting inconsistencies in patterns (like bugs in software code). The Aspiritech program is a win-win. Software companies get great QA work from well-trained and highly dedicated, detail-oriented workers, and the autistic workers hired by Aspiritech find gainful employment, learning useful skills that they can build a career upon. |
