Senior software engineer specializing in full-stack development and test automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior software engineer with deep experience in full-stack development, test automation, and improving reliability for large-scale systems. I have applied C#, .NET, SQL, Selenium, Python, and DevOps practices to optimize manufacturing execution systems, streaming services, and enterprise HR platforms, delivering measurable improvements in uptime, test coverage, and release cadence.
I have led cross-functional teams and QA efforts across multiple organizations, driving automation initiatives that increased test coverage by up to 40%, reduced defects, and improved release frequency by 25%. I thrive in Agile environments, enjoy solving complex reliability and performance problems, and focus on building scalable, maintainable solutions that improve team productivity and product quality.
