At BMW Techworks Brazil powered by act digital, I’m establishing the QA practice for automotive software, including Playwright end-to-end tests and API automation. I also manage testing through Jira and Xray, with SQL checks to validate database integrity.

At Itaú Unibanco, I developed an ATM end-to-end automation framework that reduced regression execution from 4.5 hours of manual testing to 40 minutes. I also contributed to Angular and TypeScript components and architected a real-time data pipeline using Kafka, AWS Glue, and Spark.
