Carlos Daniel Salgado
@carlosdanielsalgado
QA engineer specializing in manual and automated testing for financial and enterprise systems.
HondurasWhat I'm looking for
I am a QA engineer with extensive experience in manual and automated testing across financial, insurance, and warehouse management systems. I design test cases, validate APIs, perform SQL data checks, and track defects to drive product quality.
I have implemented automation using Selenium (JavaScript) and Cypress, integrated tests into CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, and used tools like Postman, ReadyAPI, and Swagger for API validation. My automation work significantly reduced manual testing efforts.
I collaborate within Agile/Scrum teams and coordinate cross-functionally using Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira, Confluence, and Azure Boards. I apply AI tools to refine and generate test cases and participate actively in sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives.
I hold a Master’s in Information Technology and a Bachelor’s in Administrative Informatics, and I seek roles where I can apply strong testing practices, automation expertise, and data validation skills to improve software reliability and delivery efficiency.
