What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior QA/automation role where I can lead test automation strategy, improve CI/CD testing, mentor teams, and work with cross-functional stakeholders to deliver high-quality releases.

I am a Senior QA Analyst with seven years of experience delivering automation and E2E functional testing for global clients including FedEx, Dow Jones, Proximus and others. I lead offshore QA efforts, design and implement automation frameworks (Selenium, TestNG, Cucumber, Cypress), manage CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins/Maven/Git, and drive API and database testing using Postman, REST API tools and PL/SQL.

I have experience as an offshore lead and scrum master handling stakeholder communications, release reporting, defect and test management in Jira/Zephyr, and coordinating deployments across DEV and UAT environments. My background spans web and mobile automation, performance/load testing, and working closely with test architects and product owners to deliver reliable releases.
