About Me

Jose Lopez Jr

I'm an Integration Engineer with 4+ years at Amazon Robotics in Los Angeles, working across quality assurance, test automation, and change management for large-scale robotic systems.

Day to day that means defining test strategy, executing and maintaining test plans and automation, troubleshooting failures, and driving root-cause analysis — while scheduling and executing changes across 70+ customer-impacting systems without disrupting operations.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Rochester Institute of Technology with a BS in Web and Mobile Computing, which still shows up in how I think about the systems I test — I like understanding how something is built well enough to know where it will break.

Outside of work I run a self-hosted homelab, tinker with Python automation, and I'm currently working toward the AWS Certified DevOps Engineer Professional certification.
