Senior QA Engineer specializing in end-to-end UI/API automation for blockchain and staking platforms.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior QA Engineer with 7+ years in test automation, specializing in blockchain and staking platforms like Ethereum, Solana, TON, Celestia, Babylon, and more. I focus on reliable end-to-end testing across dApps, APIs, integrations, and user-facing UI.
In my current role as Senior QA Engineer — P2P Staking (Blockchain Validator), I perform automated and manual UI/API testing of the website, staking dApp, staking API, and stablecoins widget, including their integrations. I built and maintained automation stacks across JS/TS with Selenium + Cucumber and Playwright, and I used Jest for backend testing.
I’ve repeatedly taken ownership under time pressure—independently creating a full test plan for a new API on short notice and developing mass staking scripts in JavaScript. I also implemented load tests (TypeScript + K6) as a self-initiated addition to the test suite, while validating CRM and analytics data across Intercom, Pipedrive, Mailerlite/BigQuery, Google Analytics, Google Tag, and Umami.
Before that, I worked at EPAM Systems as a Software Test Automation Engineer and Software Testing Engineer, where I created API tests (Java, TestNG, Gradle), maintained automation via Jenkins and Docker, and supported frameworks using JUnit + Serenity. I’m comfortable with new APIs and networks, and I bring a practical, quality-first mindset to debugging, regression, and automation framework growth.
