About Me
Welcome! I’m Alan Aramayo, a Senior QA Automation Engineer based in Omaha, Nebraska, with over 17 years of experience delivering high-quality software across web applications, APIs, and enterprise platforms. Throughout my career, I’ve partnered with cross-functional teams to build scalable automation frameworks, improve testing processes, and integrate quality throughout the software development lifecycle.
My expertise spans UI and API automation, test strategy, CI/CD pipelines, and modern quality engineering practices using tools such as Playwright, Selenium, Azure DevOps, and SQL. I enjoy solving complex technical challenges, driving process improvements through automation, and helping teams deliver reliable software with confidence.
Beyond writing automated tests, I’m passionate about mentoring fellow engineers, promoting best practices, and using data-driven quality metrics to help organizations continuously improve their development and release processes.
I like breaking code.
My career has been driven by a passion for continuous learning, innovation, and delivering quality at scale. Over the past 17 years, I’ve evolved from manual testing into designing and implementing enterprise-level automation solutions that improve software quality, accelerate delivery, and provide fast, reliable feedback to development teams.
Today, I specialize in building maintainable UI and API automation frameworks using Playwright and TypeScript, while leveraging technologies such as Selenium, SpecFlow, C#, SQL, and Azure DevOps. My focus extends beyond test automation—I enjoy designing scalable testing strategies, integrating automation into CI/CD pipelines, improving engineering processes, and helping teams adopt modern quality engineering practices.
As technology continues to evolve, I’m committed to expanding my expertise in automation architecture, performance testing, AI-assisted testing, and technical leadership, ensuring that quality remains an integral part of every stage of software development.
