Aleksandr Nikitin

I’m a QA Engineer with 5+ years of experience in high-load education iGaming platforms, focused on production release validation in fast-paced environments. I’ve supported up to 10 deployments per day while keeping quality stable through smoke and regression cycles.

I’m especially strong in incident investigation and root cause analysis, with a track record of detecting critical issues before and after releases. I triaged ~60–70% of reported defects within the same business day and proactively surfaced ~40% of critical incidents through log monitoring to minimize player-facing impact.

Across sportsbook, casino, payment, and personal cabinet, I executed manual QA for smoke, regression, and sanity testing—covering 30+ user scenarios per release cycle. I also identified and documented ~30+ defects per release, including UI inconsistencies, business logic errors, and platform-specific regressions.

Currently, I’m expanding into test automation through API & UI automation modules, building toward more automated coverage while staying disciplined about release readiness. I collaborate closely with development and cross-functional teams, maintaining a post-release critical defect rate under 5% over 2+ years.
