Chicago, IL — Est. 2024

Two engineers who got tired of watching bugs make it to production

goGreenlit was built by two people who spent close to a decade inside large engineering organizations and kept running into the same problem: quality was always the last thing on the list. We started this to change that, one team at a time.

We met at the same company. We kept solving the same problems.

Muhammad and Mohammad worked together at KeHE Distributors, a $4B+ distribution company where quality failures have real downstream consequences. Different projects, different teams, but the same conversations about escaped defects, late-stage bugs, and QA being brought in after the damage was already done.

After years of building test frameworks, leading QA strategy across enterprise platforms, and watching companies throw headcount at problems that needed process, the decision to start goGreenlit was pretty straightforward. Engineering teams need senior QA help. Finding it reliably, quickly, and without the overhead of hiring is harder than it should be.

That is the gap we fill. No junior testers learning on your dime. No offshore handoffs at 2am. Two senior engineers who have done this work for nine-plus years each, embedded directly in your sprint cycle and accountable for outcomes.

The people behind the work

goGreenlit is a two-founder consultancy. There is no large team behind the scenes, no account managers between you and the engineers doing the work. When you work with us, you work with us.

Co-Founder & Lead Automation QA Engineer
Chicago, IL

Mohammad is the person who figures out how to break things before users do. He has spent nine-plus years designing and building test automation frameworks for some demanding environments: healthcare systems where data accuracy is non-negotiable, distribution platforms processing thousands of transactions daily, and enterprise SaaS products with complex API layers.

He built the CI/CD integrated test suites that allowed goGreenlit clients to move from weekly releases to daily deploys without increasing defect rates. His Playwright and Selenium frameworks have been running in production environments and scaling with codebases for years, not just passing their initial demo.

Outside of work, Mohammad is competitive, meticulous, and the kind of person who will actually read the documentation before writing the first line of code. That approach tends to show up in the quality of what he builds.

Muhammad is the person who makes sure the whole QA operation actually works. He leads strategy, manages the testing process, and is the one who has the hard conversation with a development team when a release should not go out the door yet.

His background spans nine-plus years across enterprise distribution systems, healthcare applications, and SaaS platforms. He is the reason goGreenlit's clients see a 45% reduction in escaped defects: not through more testing, but through better-structured testing earlier in the cycle. He built the process around shift-left QA before it became a buzzword, because it is just how good QA works.

Muhammad is detail-oriented in a way that can be annoying during a sprint review and invaluable during a production incident. He is also the founder who will respond to your Slack message on a Saturday if something is on fire. It is a personality trait at this point.

A few things we actually believe

Senior engineers only

We do not staff junior testers. Every engagement is handled by one of us or a vetted senior QA professional we have worked with directly. You get the experience level you are paying for.

Embedded, not bolted on

We attend standups, work inside your JIRA and TestRail, and operate inside your sprint rhythm. Quality should not feel like an external audit. It should feel like part of how your team works.

Shift-left from day one

Testing at the end of the sprint is how bugs reach production. We get involved during requirements, write test cases before development starts, and catch the issues that cost the most when they are the cheapest to fix.

No long-term lock-in

Month-to-month engagements are the default because we want you to stay because it is working, not because you signed a 12-month contract. Teams that do not see value should not be forced to stick around.

Automation that earns its keep

We have both built automation suites that sit unmaintained and rot. What we build for you is designed to run in CI/CD, scale with your codebase, and actually reduce the manual testing burden over time.

Honest conversations first

If we are not the right fit for your situation, we will tell you. The first call is always a real conversation about your setup, not a pitch deck. If there is a fit, great. If not, we will point you in the right direction.
