What I'm looking for

I seek a QA role where I can lead automation and performance efforts, work within Agile teams, mentor testers, and integrate testing into CI/CD to improve release quality.

I am a Senior QA Engineer with over five years' experience improving software quality across web and enterprise platforms, focused on building robust automation frameworks and integrating testing into CI/CD workflows.

I have delivered Playwright-based test suites that cut regression cycles by 40%, automated API testing with Postman integrated into Azure DevOps to reduce deployment failures by 30%, and executed JMeter load tests to identify performance bottlenecks and ensure system stability under high traffic.

I work effectively within Agile teams to streamline defect lifecycles, mentor junior testers, and maintain strong test artifacts and documentation to support reliable releases and continuous improvement.
