What I'm looking for

I am seeking roles where I can own CI/CD and cloud automation, work in Agile teams, drive quality through test automation, and grow in SRE/platform responsibilities within a collaborative engineering culture.

I am a versatile DevOps and Software Test Engineer with hands-on experience designing and automating CI/CD pipelines, deploying containerized applications (Docker, Kubernetes), and managing infrastructure with Ansible and Terraform. I have delivered reliable, scalable solutions on AWS and Proxmox while driving monitoring and operational excellence with Grafana and Prometheus.

My background includes manual and API testing, test automation (Selenium, Postman, SOAP UI), defect management with Jira/Xray, and collaboration in Agile teams across automotive and consulting projects. I hold ISTQB Foundation and AWS Solutions Architect Associate certifications and continually apply scripting (Python, Bash) and infrastructure-as-code practices to improve delivery and quality.
