What I'm looking for

I seek a remote role leading release readiness and QA strategy in Agile teams, with hands-on automation and opportunities to mentor and improve delivery quality.

I am a Senior QA Engineer and Release Manager with 10+ years delivering quality for SaaS-style web, desktop, mobile and API products. I lead risk-based test strategy, define readiness criteria, and provide go/no-go inputs for releases while coaching and managing QA teams, improving schedule adherence and reducing rollbacks.

I’m hands-on with test automation (Playwright, Cypress, Selenium), REST/SOAP API testing, CI/CD integration and observability tools like Datadog and Kibana. As a Certified Scrum Master, I drive Agile practices, mentor engineers, and use AI-assisted workflows to speed analysis, test design, and defect triage.
