I build AI-powered test automation that speeds delivery and catches more bugs.
SpainWhat I'm looking for
At Wizeline, I lead QA strategy and automation infrastructure for international Fintech, Retail, and Media clients. I built an AI-powered Cypress and Playwright E2E framework adopted across business units, increasing test creation speed by 5x.
I designed parallel GitHub Actions execution that cut CI runtime by 85% and was later productized internally. I’ve led QA across five simultaneous projects, managed teams of more than five QA engineers, audited 40+ regulated Fintech projects, and helped bridge product, business, and engineering needs.
Previously at Solera’s global Center of Excellence, I automated testing for an AI-powered vehicle damage detection product using Selenium, RestAssured, Java, and Jenkins. I also bring hands-on frontend experience with React, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, PHP, and WordPress.
