At Picup Technologies, I test web and Android applications across a microservices-based platform. I’ve documented 150+ bugs through manual and black-box testing, and I’m developing a Playwright framework to reduce regression testing time.

I built a local test environment for a .NET Aspire microservices platform and use Postman, Firebase, and Elasticsearch to validate APIs and data integrity. I also designed and launched “System Techsupport,” a company-wide ticketing system.

Earlier, I led a Fortinet firewall deployment and implemented a Jira Service Desk ticketing system as a System Administrator. I’m pursuing ISTQB Foundation certification and contribute to the Youth Alpha program through mentorship and computer literacy teaching.
