What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue building reliable QA coverage for complex products, especially in collaborative Agile teams where I can combine hands-on testing, automation, and AI-assisted workflows.

I'm currently testing regulated life-sciences software at Kneat Solutions, where I write, peer-review, and maintain Gherkin test cases while executing functional, regression, integration, and exploratory testing.

Previously at Empyrean Solutions, I developed comprehensive Agile test plans and automated critical regression workflows using Python and Gherkin. I partnered closely with developers, business analysts, and product owners to clarify requirements, uncover edge cases, and reduce late-cycle rework.

Across Expleo Technologies and An Post, I've managed end-to-end QA for web, handheld-device, and nationwide product releases, including deployments across 900+ post offices. I'm ISTQB certified and currently completing a PGD in Artificial Intelligence for Business, with practical experience configuring AI agents and applying AI-assisted testing workflows.
