About me

I am a Senior Software Engineer in Test with over 14 years of experience designing scalable test architectures and driving end-to-end software development lifecycle quality strategies for US enterprise SaaS companies and startups. My expertise lies in automation framework design, CI/CD optimization, and release management. Throughout my career, I have standardized QA practices, mentored teams, and increased release confidence across diverse systems.

I have led company-wide QA strategies enabling scalable automation and continuous delivery, architecting automation frameworks using Cypress, Cucumber, and the Page Object Model. I am experienced in establishing CI/CD quality gates with tools like GitHub Actions to improve deployment confidence and reduce defects.

My professional journey includes directing QA strategies across multiple teams, designing reusable automation frameworks with Selenium, Cucumber, and various programming languages such as JavaScript, Java, Ruby, and Groovy. I have built and scaled onboarding and mentoring programs for QA engineers, ensuring high-quality testing standards.

I am skilled in various testing practices including end-to-end, exploratory, integration, risk-based, regression, performance, and REST API testing. I am proficient in using tools like PostgreSQL, Rollbar, Amazon CloudWatch, Jira, and Confluence, and have experience testing across web, mobile (iOS/Android), and API platforms.

I am passionate about embedding shift-left testing practices and collaborating cross-functionally with engineering and product teams to improve software quality. I continuously perform root cause analysis and monitor production logs to enhance post-release quality and reliability.

My educational background includes a degree in Software Engineering from ORT University in Uruguay, and I hold the Salesforce Certified Platform Developer I certification. I am fluent in Spanish and proficient in English, which allows me to work effectively in diverse environments.

I am eager to leverage my extensive experience and skills to contribute to innovative projects and help organizations achieve high-quality software delivery through robust testing and automation strategies.
