What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values quality assurance and offers opportunities for growth in a collaborative environment.

I am a Quality Assurance Engineer with hands-on experience in manual software testing, utilizing tools such as Azure DevOps and Postman. My passion lies in ensuring high product quality through structured test case design, defect reporting, regression, and exploratory testing. I thrive in remote-first environments and am adaptable and self-motivated, eager to contribute to impactful global teams.

In my current role as a QA Software Tester at Kitji Studios Inc., I have developed and executed manual test cases based on user stories and system specifications. My responsibilities include identifying, documenting, and tracking software defects, as well as conducting exploratory testing and creating detailed test reports. I also have experience as a Dental Technology Consultant, where I assisted local dentistry startups in utilizing 3D printing technology.

With a background in customs brokerage and procurement management, I bring a diverse skill set that enhances my analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities. I am committed to continuous learning, currently pursuing a Software Testing Masterclass to further refine my skills in the field.
