Ivan Barajas Vargas - CEO and Co-Founder of MuukTest
During the 15 years that Ivan Barajas Vargas worked in QA and test automation, he realized that testing was slow and required an army of QAs to get it automated. In 2019, he and Renan Ugalde founded MuukTest, an AI-powered solution that effortlessly automates software testing in days instead of years.

Since being part of top startup accelerators like MassChallenge and TechStars, MuukTest received grants from the National Science Foundation’s Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, as well as being included in Google for Startups’ Latino Founders Fund for 2023, among other grants.

She has consistently worked on delivering generative AI and machine learning products across multiple companies - from user facing to platform. At Verily, she works closely with researchers, supporting AI/ML horizontally across Verily's precision health platform.
