What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative Agile team role focusing on automation and API testing, opportunities to improve QA processes, and professional growth in CI/CD and DevOps-integrated testing.

I am an Agile QA Tester with over four years of hands-on experience in manual and automated testing, API validation, and end-to-end software quality assurance. I work effectively within Agile/Scrum teams to deliver reliable software through disciplined SDLC and STLC practices.

I have contributed to successful product launches by executing UAT, SIT, regression, functional and accessibility testing across web and mobile platforms, and by keeping test artifacts current with evolving requirements. I built and maintained automated test scripts to reduce repetitive work and optimize test coverage.

My toolkit includes JIRA, Jenkins, Postman, Tricentis TOSCA and REST Assured, and I am familiar with CI/CD and DevOps-supporting tools such as Docker. I prioritize clear communication, proactive bug tracking, and collaborative problem solving with development and release teams.

I hold a Master of Computer Science and multiple QA certifications, including TOSCA Automation Specialist levels and Scrum fundamentals. I am focused on continuous improvement and delivering high-quality, user-ready software.
