Software Engineer

& Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET)Hi! I'm Alejandro, a Software Engineer working as a SDET. Always looking for problems to solve using code, systemic criteria or just improving Skils.

MoreAbout Me

I'm a software engineer who builds web applications end-to-end — and makes sure they actually work before they ship. My background spans React/Next.js, Node.js, Python, and Flask for development, paired with hands-on experience in automated testing (Selenium, Cucumber, REST Assured) from my time as an SDET at Etsy. That combination means I don't just hand off code — I build it, test it, and help catch issues before your users do.

What I offerServices

Business Applications & Dashboards

I build custom software solutions that help businesses manage customers, inventory, operations, and sales in one place. From internal tools to customer-facing applications.

AI Automation & Smart Workflows

I help businesses reduce repetitive work by integrating AI into their daily operations — customer support assistants, document processing, data analysis, and workflow automation.

Software Quality & Automation Testing

I help companies improve software reliability by creating automated testing systems that detect problems before they reach customers.

System Integrations & Backend Solutions

I connect your business tools and build reliable systems that allow your applications, databases, and third-party services to work together.

Studied Systems Engineering at Universidad Gran Mariscal de Ayacucho, focusing on programming, algorithms, databases, and systems analysis. Built a strong foundation in software development and problem-solving through engineering principles.

My JobHistory

2018 - 2020
Oxoft Group
As a Jr Software Developer, I created web applications using JavaScript, React.js, and Node.js, translating UX/UI wireframes into reusable JSX components. Collaborated with designers to build and test features using unit testing practices, while applying modern JavaScript (ES6) and object-oriented principles to create scalable, maintainable code.
2022 - 2023
Etsy.com Apprenticeship
During my apprenticeship at Etsy.com, I worked as a Junior SDET focused on UI testing and automation. I analyzed requirements and created detailed test scenarios to ensure feature quality and coverage. I developed and maintained automated tests using Java, Selenium WebDriver, Cucumber BDD, and JUnit. I also generated test reports with screenshots and helped improve testing reliability and debugging efficiency.
2023 - Present
Self-Employee Software Engineer
Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in custom web applications, business dashboards, e-commerce platforms and AI implementation. I build internal systems that connect directly to a business's existing infrastructure — giving teams real-time visibility and control through clean, reliable web interfaces built with React, Next.js, Node.js, and Python. I also handle automated testing and CI/CD pipelines, so what I ship is production-ready from day one, not just functional in development
