Principal Software QA Engineer | QA Automation Architect | AI-Driven QA
Lisbon, Portugal
Principal Software QA Engineer (ISTQB CTFL-AT) at SS&C Blue Prism, specialist in QA automation architecture, framework design, and AI-driven tooling at scale. I design and evolve test automation frameworks adopted across multiple engineering teams to CI/CD-integrated testing pipelines. My work spans C#, TypeScript, and Python, grounded in architectural principles like BDD, Page Object Model, and scalability-first design. On the AI side, I am currently building agent pipeline solutions using Langflow, n8n, and MCP tools, transforming experimental ideas into real products. I invest in knowledge sharing, team enablement, and documentation, mentoring QA engineers to deliver high standards in code and architecture, and providing continuous improvement across teams. Driven by the intersection of quality engineering, intelligent automation, and developer experience.
Currently focusing on AI, agent pipelines, and Langflow. Building automation solutions in Python, TypeScript, and C#, mentoring teams, and driving the integration of agents, intelligent automation, and living documentation. Key projects include Langflow, n8n, Claude, MCP tools, and generative AI integration for QA.
Designed and evolved shared QA frameworks, led Playwright + TypeScript rollout, Appium, and DocFX documentation solutions. Implemented QA-Ops pipelines, promoted agent and AI integration, and mentored QA engineers across multiple teams.
Developed scalable frameworks in C# and Python, focusing on BDD, Page Object Model, and CI/CD integration. Contributed to desktop automation (Appium), contract testing, and QA mentoring initiatives.
Implemented and improved test automation frameworks. Created test cases and reports using Selenium, UFT One, Appium, Robot Framework, and Python.
SCRUM team — writing, executing and managing test cases in JIRA. Automation scripts with Robot Framework and Selenium on an OutSystems platform.
