Ian Goddard
QA LEAD
Napster Group
I begun my career over 10 years ago when I accidentally stumbled into broadcast television testing. This included running conformance testing for CI+, Freeview, and HbbTV regimes across the globe. I honed my skills driving an audio testing regime for the company by integrating Dolby testing for STB and iDTV conformance as well as laying the ground work for ATSC and HbbTV integration. I developed new conformance regimes for AAC/HE-AAC as well as continuing to assist companies such as the BBC, YouView, FreeView, Dolby and many more with traditional broadcast and OTT platforms. Most recently I have led the video playback QA team for DAZN, a leading sports streaming company, in their rapid global expansion and platform rebuild (a product with an imminent UK release date)
Currently I am helping build out the testing function at MelodyVR.
