Aleksandr Sokolov is a Senior Software Engineer with over nine years focused on Python-driven test automation, tooling and systems integration across companies from Gemalto and Broadcom to Apple and YADRO. He specializes in PyTest, RobotFramework, asyncio, Selenium and SQLAlchemy, and routinely builds CI/CD-friendly test suites and automation for RESTful services, embedded devices and NAS systems. His background spans UI automation, desktop tooling with PyQt/PySide6, and legacy mainframe technologies (JCL, REXX), which lets him bridge modern microservices and older enterprise stacks. At Apple he combined manual UX studies with automated data-processing tools, and at Neuro.net and YADRO he delivered service- and device-level test automation in Docker/GitLab/Jenkins environments. Known for pragmatic tooling and database schema design, he often turns exploratory test work into reusable frameworks that speed delivery. Based in Nizhny Novgorod, he brings a rare mix of front-end UI automation, backend testing and mainframe experience that eases complex integration projects.
