Senior🎓
Top SchoolDmytro Shyshkin is a Principal UI SDET with 11 years of experience building and scaling UI and API test automation across enterprise products, currently driving UI platform quality at Palo Alto Networks from Tampa, Florida. He has repeatedly modernized test stacks—migrating Robot Framework/Selenium to Pytest for a 3x speedup, then to Playwright + TypeScript to reach 96–98% pass rates and cut late-stage bugs—while embedding shift-left practices into CI/CD. A prolific educator, he created 9 online courses with over 100,000 students, translating hands-on automation patterns into teachable frameworks that help teams adopt maintainable, reusable test code. Dmytro combines deep technical craft (Python, Java, Playwright, Selenium, REST Assured, Appium) with pragmatic leadership: defining standards, mentoring engineers, and prioritizing automation that prevents production regressions. An interesting facet: he blends instructional design with production work—using insights from teaching to reduce flakiness and improve naming, structure, and reusability across large teams.
