Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Grandjean is a seasoned SDET with roughly two decades in software quality and 16 years of hands-on experience building maintainable E2E automation and test frameworks across Playwright, Selenium, REST-Assured and cloud environments. He has a track record of reducing flaky test runs and improving release confidence—at Autodesk he drove daily test failures down from over 50% to 5%—and enjoys Greenfield work where he can design testing roadmaps and implement them from scratch. Comfortable across UI, API and integration layers, he pairs developer-level coding practices with test-first discipline to produce self-documenting test code and readable reports for technical and non-technical stakeholders. A former college software engineering instructor and mentor, he actively coaches teams toward shift-left testing and spreads automation skills rather than hoarding them. He has contributed to the Selenium project documentation, reflecting long-standing engagement with the open-source testing community. Based in Portland, Oregon, Paul combines troubleshooting rigor with a preference for proactive process improvements and clear release-risk communication.
