@cristhianalcocer
AI-powered QA lead blending manual rigor, shift-left testing, and agile leadership.
What I'm looking for
I’m a QA Lead and Senior Manual QA Engineer who protects product integrity by bridging Frontend usability and Backend stability in fast-paced Agile environments. I guide QA strategy and technical agility for cloud-native solutions, acting as a Technical Scrum Facilitator to keep delivery on track for core products like Studio, DBConnector, Workforce Intelligence, and WorkflowData.
I lead AI-powered testing and Shift-Left initiatives to catch defects before they reach production, including building end-to-end test plans using Claude AI for test design and Atlassian Rovo for requirements. Hands-on execution is central to my approach—I validate APIs with Postman, run backend data integrity checks with SQL, streamline Jira-based RCA with Google Gemini, and run performance/load testing to protect availability and shipping timelines.
