Senior SDET & AI Quality Engineer | LLM Validation · Automation Architecture · 7+ years shipping quality systems for SaaS and AI products.
What I'm looking for
I build quality systems for products where traditional testing breaks — AI-driven features, RAG pipelines, multi-turn agents, and non-deterministic outputs.
At Trexo Global, I architected a Python/Pytest automation framework from scratch covering UI, API, and backend validation across 1,200+ tests, cut regression time by 60%, and reduced post-release defects by 30-35% over 12 months. I also built the full observability stack: Grafana, Prometheus, and a centralized logging pipeline into AWS QuickSight.
On the AI side, I've designed LLM evaluation frameworks in production: golden dataset validation, RAG grounding checks, hallucination detection, drift detection pipelines, and structured output schema validation integrated into CI/CD. This is frontier work — most QA teams have no framework for it. I've built one, shipped it, and used it across multiple products.
I've led and mentored teams of 6-8 QA engineers, owned automation roadmaps, and operated as release authority aligning quality gates with Product and Engineering leadership.
Currently open to remote-first Senior SDET, Staff SDET, QA Lead, or AI Quality Engineer roles with international teams building serious products.
