What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote-friendly team where QA and development work together—building reliable automation (including AI-driven flows), improving coverage, and owning quality end-to-end. I want to keep shipping fast without sacrificing correctness.

I’m a QA Automation Engineer with 4.5 years of experience blending front-end development and test automation—so I catch bugs other testers miss. I’ve delivered quality at speed and reduced manual testing effort by 40%, while staying remote-ready and async-fluent.

My work spans functional, regression, smoke, sanity, integration, end-to-end (E2E), cross-browser, API, exploratory, UAT, and AI-driven automation. I’ve built end-to-end test flows with WebDriverIO, Selenium, Cypress, and Playwright, and used testRigor AI Automation (including self-healing and generative AI) to build and automate 100+ test cases; I also integrated API-triggered execution via Git for local client runs. On the development side, I build responsive UI and sites (React.js, WordPress, Drupal) and have shipped automation for WhatsApp/Email/Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect and AppScript, plus WooCommerce API + CRM inventory syncing.
