What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead QA in an Agile team—driving manual testing, defect management, and client journey validation to deliver seamless user experiences, improve processes continuously, and collaborate closely with developers and product stakeholders.

I’m a Quality Assurance Team Lead and QA Analyst with 3+ years of experience in manual testing, defect management, and client experience validation across web-based platforms. I develop and execute test cases and deliver regression, functional, exploratory, and user acceptance testing to support high-quality software releases.

I’m skilled in identifying, documenting, tracking, and validating defects using GitLab and QA workflows. I coordinate Agile sprint planning activities, review test cases to improve coverage, track quality metrics, and mentor and onboard QA team members to strengthen best practices in software testing and defect management.

I also value continuous process improvement and seamless user experiences, producing detailed bug reports with evidence like screenshots and screen recordings. From assisting with administrative coordination and data entry in earlier roles, I carry strong organization, communication, and attention to detail into every quality-focused sprint.
