Hello! I'm Joshua Briceno. Watch my presentation on YouTube
I am a Senior Software Engineer and Quality Engineering Leader with 14+ years of experience designing, building, and scaling high-quality software solutions for global organizations.
Throughout my career, I have led quality engineering initiatives, built automation frameworks from the ground up, and helped engineering teams deliver reliable software faster by integrating quality into every stage of the development lifecycle.
My expertise spans modern test automation, backend and frontend technologies, cloud platforms, and engineering leadership. I have extensive experience working with Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Node.js, CI/CD pipelines, REST APIs, SQL, cloud environments, AI implementations, web3, Streaming industry and Agile development practices.
Rather than viewing quality as the responsibility of a QA team, I believe quality is an engineering discipline. My focus is on creating scalable automation architectures, improving developer productivity, reducing delivery risks, and enabling teams to ship software with confidence.
Over the years, I have collaborated with distributed teams across the United States, Latin America, Europe, and APAC, partnering with software engineers, architects, product managers, and executive leadership to solve complex technical challenges.
Areas where I create the greatest impact include:
• Designing scalable automation frameworks
• Software architecture for testability
• Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, and modern automation strategies
• CI/CD and DevOps quality integration
• Developer Productivity and Engineering Enablement
• Test Strategy and Quality Engineering Leadership
• API, UI, and End-to-End Automation
• Coaching and mentoring engineering teams
• Cross-functional technical leadership
I enjoy solving complex engineering problems, modernizing legacy automation ecosystems, and helping organizations build sustainable quality practices that scale with business growth.
I am always interested in connecting with engineering leaders, software architects, recruiters, and organizations looking for experienced professionals who can bridge software engineering and quality engineering while delivering measurable business impact.

I help global engineering teams design, build, and scale high-quality software through modern Software Engineering, Quality Engineering, Test Automation, and Cloud technologies. My expertise spans Full-Stack Development, automation architecture, CI/CD, and technical leadership across enterprise-scale applications.
Software Engineering & Cloud
* Designed, developed, and maintained modern full-stack applications using TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Node.js, Vite, Firebase, and Supabase.
* Built cloud-native solutions deployed on AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), integrating automated testing and CI/CD practices throughout the SDLC.
* Collaborated with cross-functional engineering teams to deliver scalable, secure, and production-ready software.
Quality & Automation
* Architected enterprise-grade End-to-End automation frameworks using Playwright, TypeScript, Python, Cucumber, and API testing strategies.
* Designed automation architectures integrated into CI/CD pipelines, improving release confidence and engineering efficiency.
* Developed Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions for business-critical data processing, migration, and validation workflows.
Technical Leadership
* Defined automation standards, engineering best practices, and scalable quality strategies across multiple projects.
* Partnered with engineering leaders, architects, and product teams to align technical execution with business objectives.
* Mentored engineers on automation, software architecture, engineering excellence.
