Stu Megan
Stu Megan (Stewart A. Megan, born 1952 in Bristol, England) is now retired, having been a computer software professional since 1968, a career spanning 46 years. He began this career working on early core memory computers such as the LEO Computers LEO III (a room-sized machine that used only switches for control and ferrite rods for memory) to working at Netscape as the System Test Engineering Manager for more recent internet technology products such as Netscape's Directory Server (NDS).
Stu emigrated to Canada in 1981, working for a company called GEAC as a system programmer/developer. GEAC built their own hardware and software systems, compilers and were a leading Canadian corporation. Stu then emigrated to the US with GEAC and worked on many system developer projects there. After working at First Interstate IT Services, he moved to Silicon Valley working at many companies including Syntelligence – an Stanford AI company, both in the US and back in UK, he worked for Netscape as Senior QA Manager on Directory Server (the birth of the internet) and more. He subsequently began his own QA TestLab Services Consulting Service, initially providing hands-on testing and later becoming a QA infrastructure service for small businesses who needed to start their own internal QA. This involved building the environment and then acquiring the resources needed (people, software, hardware).
