What I'm looking for

I seek a role focused on automation and test strategy where I can lead QA efforts, improve CI/CD quality gates, and collaborate cross-functionally in an Agile environment.

I am a Senior Software QA Engineer with over 8 years of experience in software testing, automation, and quality assurance across payroll systems, e-commerce platforms, POS machines, and web applications. I build and maintain Selenium and Cypress frameworks, design data-driven tests, and improve CI/CD quality gates using CircleCI and Jenkins.

I have led QA teams, optimized tester workflows through GitHub integrations, and created structured knowledge bases using Markdown and HTML to accelerate onboarding and preserve institutional knowledge. My automation work has reduced regression cycles and defect leakage while improving release confidence across multi-browser environments.

I use Linux as my daily driver and contribute practical Bash scripting and DevOps-focused projects on GitHub to complement my QA expertise. I seek roles where I can apply test strategy, automation frameworks, and cross-functional collaboration to deliver reliable software.
