Gustavo BrandánQA Analyst
"Hi, my name is Gustavo Brandán. I am a Quality Assurance Engineer. I have 11 years of experience working with Requirement Analysis, Test Specifications, Bug Reporting and Test Management techniques. I've used ticketing and testing tools(Like Jira and Testrail) and applied Agile frameworks like Scrum/Kanban or Lean. I have participated in countless software projects, in many bussiness areas (like for example an automatic Phone survey software). I enjoy bringing the magic of technology to common people. In my free time I enjoy footing or riding my bike. Currently living and based in Córdoba City, Argentina.
