What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative Agile team role focused on improving test automation, ensuring high-quality releases, and growing in QA leadership.

I am a Software Quality Assurance Engineer with over 3 years of hands-on experience testing web and mobile applications across iOS and Android platforms. I specialize in both manual and automation testing and have strong expertise in STLC and SDLC processes.

I have driven QA efforts at HazelSoft, leading test case design, regression cycles, cross-browser and cross-platform testing, and collaborating closely with developers and product teams in Agile/Scrum environments. I prioritize clear defect reporting and timely resolution to support reliable releases.

My technical toolkit includes Playwright (Java), Postman, TestRail, Jira, Notion, and Mantis, which I use for automation, API validation, test management, and bug tracking. I have applied these tools on projects involving 3D web platforms, mobile apps, and gamified educational products.

I hold a BS in Information Technology and bring a pragmatic, detail-focused approach to QA—aiming to improve automation efficiency, reduce regressions, and ensure excellent user experiences across devices and browsers.
