What I'm looking for

I seek a role leading QA and automation efforts, focusing on CI-integrated testing, security, and AI validation within collaborative, impact-driven teams.

I am a Senior QA Engineer with hands-on experience building automated end-to-end, API, and CI-integrated test suites for enterprise health, education, humanitarian, and corporate applications. I led QA for multi-portal systems and reduced critical release bugs and regressions through Playwright, Jenkins, and robust test design.

My work blends research-driven product planning with technical execution: I validated AI chatbot outputs, conducted security and fuzz testing that surfaced medium and high-severity vulnerabilities, and automated data validation to cut manual prep by 50%. I also developed consolidated data-processing approaches for large datasets (1.85M records) and delivered measurable reliability improvements for national projects.

I seek to bring rigorous quality practices, automation leadership, and cross-functional collaboration to teams that value secure, reliable, and user-focused software delivery.
