Senior QA Engineer passionate about enhancing software quality through automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior QA Engineer with over 3 years of experience in the field, recognized for my ability to mentor junior testers and drive team productivity. My expertise lies in Cypress-based E2E testing, SQL/PostgreSQL backend validation, and both manual and automation testing. I am proficient in Agile methodologies and CI/CD practices, and I am passionate about leveraging AI-driven solutions to enhance software quality.
In my recent role at Deriv, I mentored a team of junior testers, significantly improving their automation testing skills and contributing to a more efficient QA process. I developed and implemented workflow automations using n8n, which reduced repetitive manual processes. My commitment to maintaining and optimizing the KYC Cypress test suite while spearheading its migration to TestIM streamlined our testing processes and improved overall efficiency.
Throughout my career, I have consistently focused on optimizing testing processes and enhancing team performance. I have automated over 40% of test scenarios, diagnosed test failures, and developed comprehensive testing reports that have led to significant increases in team efficiency. I am eager to continue my journey in QA, utilizing my skills to contribute to high-quality software development.
