Addie Lewis-Obi
@addielewis-obi
Senior QA Engineer delivering high-quality web, mobile, and API releases in Agile.
What I'm looking for
I’m an ISTQB Certified Tester and results-driven QA Engineer with over 5 years of experience delivering high-quality web, mobile, fintech, and API applications in Agile environments. I focus on problem-solving and risk awareness—identifying issues early, improving software quality, and protecting the customer experience.
In my QA roles, I’ve performed functional, regression, exploratory, acceptance, API, and database testing across production releases. I design and execute test cases for new features and releases, then log, track, and collaborate on defect resolution using tools like Jira to support root cause analysis and production issue investigations.
I bring strong technical depth to testing execution and validation. I’ve used Postman for API testing, SQL for database validation, and worked with AWS and Chrome DevTools for environment checks, while supporting quality throughout SDLC with Product Owners and Developers through sprint planning, backlog refinement, and release activities.
After a planned career break, I returned to the job market with a renewed passion for Quality Assurance and a wider technical perspective. I completed a frontend development bootcamp (JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Python) and continued upskilling in testing automation through tools and frameworks like Playwright and Cypress—so I can contribute with both rigorous testing discipline and improved cross-functional understanding.
