I build scalable test automation and quality gates for high-volume platforms.
What I'm looking for
At Pyyne, I architect CI/CD test automation pipelines in GitHub Actions, build Playwright API suites for backend contracts, and drive Shift-Left collaboration across development and product teams.
Previously, at TODOS Empreendimentos, I increased automated test coverage by 30% for a platform serving more than 6 million active users and validated 30+ API endpoints, cloud logs, and data integrity. At SenseData, I built Selenium and Python automation frameworks, achieved 100% business-rule coverage on critical features, and co-led a Jenkins migration that reduced infrastructure costs by 15%.
I combine Playwright, Selenium, WebdriverIO, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, API testing, and CI/CD practices to make quality measurable and actionable throughout the SDLC.
