Artem Tykhonov is a security engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience blending QA automation, security practices, and CI/CD in product-focused teams at MacPaw and Setapp. He brings strong programming fundamentals in Java and Bash, solid SQL skills, and practical expertise with automation frameworks (Appium, Selenium, Robotium) plus API testing using SoapUI. Transitioning from QA automation to security, Artem leverages memory and static analysis tools like Valgrind, Sonar, and Cppcheck to harden code and catch issues earlier in the lifecycle. He has repeatedly implemented CI pipelines (Jenkins, TeamCity) and managed QA processes for mobile and web platforms, demonstrating both technical depth and team-level impact. His academic background in Computer & Network Security and early research experience in steganalysis give him a rigorous, analytical approach to threat detection and testing. Based in Ukraine, Artem combines pragmatic automation skills with a security-minded perspective that helps teams shift left and reduce production risk.
