Lionel Payan

In 2013, I discovered the world of Agile with the role of Product Owner. Today, I'm an Agile Leader in the role of team facilitator or catalyst.
As an Agile expert and enthusiast, I'm now committed to supporting teams by combining fulfilment and performance around collective intelligence.

As a sports coach in a table tennis club for the last 10 years, I use the tools of mental preparation to help young table tennis players optimise their individual (and collective) performance, while at the same time encouraging them to enjoy their game and develop their independence.

My motto: ‘Be demanding in your efforts, patient in your results’.

Inmaculada Alarcón

Inmaculada Alarcón

My name is Inma Alarcon Torres, CTO of SIPSA and TAST product Owner.

I am a Telecommunications Engineer (E.T.S.I.T - U.P.M) and throughout my professional career I have specialised in Quality, Testing and Test Automation.

I started developing test applications to test the telephony services of the main European Telco companies, and that's where I started to develop the idea of defining a product that would allow to perform automatic tests in a simple way, without having to know how to program, in order to make the testing process efficient and to reuse all the knowledge that functional testers have.

Due to the comings and goings of the economy and the crisis, I went on to work in process consulting and quality assurance for large organisations (Ericsson, Grupo Santander, BMW, Vodafone, etc.), which led me to complete my profile and understand the impact of technological evolution in organisations of all sizes.

In 2017, from SIPSA, I had the opportunity to make the product TAST (Test Automation System Tool - "my son 😊") the test automation tool that we are implementing in organisations of all sizes to cover test automation in transformation projects, a reality.

And because it's not all work, I describe myself as an enthusiastic, enterprising and hard-working person who, apart from being passionate about her work: quality, testing, automation and efficiency, likes to enjoy family and friends, sport (I'm a triathlete) and music, I play the tenor trombone and dare to play the drums.

I'd love to streamline R&D, optimize infrastructure, and align engineering with business goals. My expertise accelerates development cycles, makes delivery processes transparent and efficient, and turns chaotic teams into high-performing units.

I find my joy in:
• Transforming slow, costly, and unclear R&D processes into well-oiled machines.
• Engaging engineers and managers in the sales process for better business impact.
• Building strong, accountable teams that retain top talent.

For a Fortune 500 client, I reduced a 7-year scope to under 3, cut release cycles from 2 months to 1 week, and saved 60% of development and 70% of IT infrastructure costs.
