Experienced Software QA Engineer with a strong foundation in quality assurance.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Software QA Engineer with hands-on experience in testing mobile and web applications across diverse platforms. My background in quality assurance is complemented by my previous roles in manufacturing and life sciences, where I developed a keen ability to identify defects early and implement effective inspection protocols. I am proficient in various testing methodologies, including functional, UI, smoke, and regression testing, and I have a solid understanding of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and QA documentation.
At Relly.ai, I have successfully tested mobile and web applications, utilizing tools like TestRail and Jira to create and maintain test cases and document bug reports. My efforts have led to a 15% improvement in issue resolution time, showcasing my commitment to enhancing communication between QA and development teams. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with developers and product managers to ensure quality throughout the SDLC.
My previous experience as a Production Supervisor and Quality Specialist has equipped me with strong problem-solving skills and a focus on compliance with regulatory standards. I am passionate about quality assurance and continuously seek opportunities to improve processes and contribute to higher software quality.
