Senior QA Engineer at Appspace who established end-to-end testing frameworks and achieved 100% mobile test coverage.

At Appspace, I architected end-to-end QA frameworks for web and mobile projects and integrated quality checkpoints into Agile workflows. I achieved 100% mobile test coverage, helping decrease production defects by 74%.

I introduced Risk-Based Testing and weekly mini-regressions at Appspace, reducing defects during stabilization by 23%. I also mentored new QA engineers and addressed accessibility compliance gaps.

At Sopra Steria, I directed QA strategy across insurance workstreams and helped migrate a multi-thousand-client database with 100% data integrity and no service disruption. Earlier, at Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia, I developed an anatomical calibration method using inertial sensors and VR markers.
