What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Scrum/Agile team where I can own quality from test planning to defect closure, strengthen UI/UX and API validation, and use automation tools to deliver safer releases. I value early bug detection and clear, actionable test documentation.

I’m a Quality Specialist with more than 10 years in quality assurance, passionate about strengthening new functionalities and improvements for web systems. I’m motivated by the challenge of finding and resolving bugs that may affect the user experience—so we catch issues early and correct them fast.

I take ownership of quality matters for Scrum Agile teams, planning and prioritizing testing activities for new features. I create comprehensive test scenarios, test charts, and test cases tied to product backlog items, then track failures from detection through closure and the next release.

I balance deep analysis of business requirements with practical execution: UI & UX, API request validations, logs review, and multiple test types (end-to-end, exploratory, smoke, sanity, regression, and UAT). I also keep documentation disciplined across epics, defects, and testing procedures using tools like Azure DevOps and TestRail.

I actively improve outcomes by researching end-user-reported issues and turning them into measurable enhancements, with successful delivery of internal solutions and new web application versions that significantly improved UX. I stay current with testing technologies for automation and validation, including Playwright, Selenium, and API testing tools.
