At Pinterest, I scaled test automation infrastructure across Monetization and Advertising, improving CI suite stability by more than 20% across 1,200+ tests. I also developed verification harnesses for transaction triggers, event telemetry, and conversion tracking.

I architected automated evaluation suites for generative AI features and integrated agentic workflows to generate synthetic test datasets and scaffold specs. I built test observability dashboards and integrated smoke gates into developer workflows.

At Coursedog, Inc., I executed the migration of 200+ specs from Cypress to Playwright, enabling reliable cross-browser execution and resolving chronic CI timeouts. Earlier, at Enroute / Integral Ad Science, I maintained and expanded a custom test automation framework for distributed backend services and ad-measurement pipelines.
