QA Automation Team Lead
SISCOG was the company that allowed me to grow as a Tester and build my quality assurance career.
Started as a manual tester, testing the UI for desktop and web applications. Soon I've shown my interest in test automation, SISCOG gave me the tools and courses that I needed to be able to start contributing and implement automated tests in the company.
I was responsible to investigate and select the best tools and technologies to be used in test automation.
After 2 years doing manual tests and automated tests, the company decided to create a testing team dedicated only to automation, I was selected to be the Lead of this team.
During my Lead, beside develop the test strategy and improving the automation test framework, I had the responsibility to provide guidance and support to my team members, and also assign tasks and manage the team's workload.
