  2. Billie Bell Billie J. Bell , E2E QA Program Manager for Intuit, developed the end-to-end (E2E) QA Program Manager role after recognizing the benefits of engaging QA teams across Intuit's primarily agile project teams in understanding how cross-project integration testing influences achievement of overall business objectives. Using the rollout of specific company-wide initiatives provides a pragmatic context and motivation for development of new processes and promotes an E2E quality mindset beyond QA. Billie’s recent accomplishments include coordinating the integration of 30+ applications with a PCI compliance platform, a consolidated entitlement and software license management platform infrastructure integrating desktop and Web service applications, and a 10-layer subscription and billing SAAS initiative integrating 3rd party and internally-developed applications. Including her eight years at Intuit, Billie brings more than 20 years of experience in enterprise financial software development in QA management, product management, and program management roles in both Fortune 500 and start-up software development companies.
