I’m a Senior QA Automation Engineer based in LATAM with 5+ years in QA and 3+ years in automation. What makes me unique is my mix of strong engineering skills and product mindset: I build scalable, reliable automation frameworks (Playwright/Cypress/Selenium/Appium) for web, mobile, and APIs, and I also take ownership of quality end-to-end—requirements, risk analysis, regression strategy, CI/CD integration, and defect triage with clear communication. I’m comfortable working with U.S.-based teams, client-facing discussions, and delivering fast feedback through CI pipelines (GitHub Actions/Jenkins/TeamCity). I’m looking for a remote QA Automation role with U.S. clients where I can support automation strategy, improve stability and coverage, and help teams release with confidence.
