At Thales DIS Czech Republic, I lead a five-person QA/Validation team working on biometric matching and identity systems, while remaining approximately 50% hands-on. I assess release readiness from test evidence and raise go/no-go recommendations to the Project Manager.

I test end-to-end workflows, integrations, APIs, UI and performance across a distributed architecture. When defects span subsystems, I trace data flows and inspect logs, requests and server configurations to document findings for engineering teams.

Earlier at Thales and Altersis s.r.o., I validated facial recognition and fingerprint processing, tested REST/SOAP APIs with Postman, and worked with biometric capture and document hardware. I also configured RabbitMQ and Linux/Windows test environments and used SQL across Oracle, MySQL and MariaDB.

At Aplana Software, I led a six-person QA team on enterprise projects and separately served as Project Manager on other engagements. My work included Raiffeisenbank Russia FATCA/CRS regulatory reporting, SOA integration testing and XML/XSD validation; I also document QA processes and automate selected tests with Robot Framework.
