What I'm looking for

I seek a role building full-stack applications with strong test automation and CI/CD practices at a collaborative, Agile team where I can drive quality, scalable solutions and client-facing impact.

I am a Full Stack Developer with solid experience building responsive web applications and scalable server-side solutions using modern JavaScript and cloud technologies. I combine front-end frameworks like React and Next.js with back-end stacks such as Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, MongoDB and GraphQL to deliver user-focused products.

With a strong background in QA automation, I implemented test frameworks using Selenium, Cucumber, Appium, Rest Assured and Cypress, and integrated automated testing into CI/CD pipelines to ensure high-quality releases. I have led automation initiatives, supported security assessments, and optimized AWS EC2 deployments while transitioning teams to Agile practices.

I freelance for small businesses and previously worked as a QA Automation Engineer and Jr Software Developer, delivering production-ready solutions, building APIs, and implementing authentication and authorization. I prioritize clean, tested code, client collaboration, and continuous delivery to produce reliable, maintainable software.
