I work as an Associate Professor at the University of Seville (Spain). I am a member of the Applied Software Engineering research group, and a senior member of the SCORE Unit of Excellence, where I lead the research lines on software testing and search-based software engineering. Prior to this, I completed my Ph.D on software product lines in 2011. I do applied and tool-oriented software engineering research. My main motivation is helping to improve developers’ productivity and software quality through automation. My current research interests focus on software testing, search-based SE, AI-driven SE, and teaching SE. Feel free to contact me if you are interested in completing a Ph.D in any of these (or related) topics.
