What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a performance-driven Senior Software Test Engineer with a strong focus on automation frameworks and a passion for enhancing software reliability. My expertise spans functional testing, API testing, integration testing, and regression testing. I thrive on designing and optimizing test strategies that not only reduce defects but also accelerate release cycles, ensuring high-quality digital solutions that drive business success.

In my current role at BitBang, I lead quality assurance efforts within an Agile squad, designing and maintaining API automation scripts using Cypress and JavaScript. My previous experiences at PaySky and Kashier have honed my skills in mobile testing and API automation, where I developed and executed test scripts that ensured seamless payment processing and robust application performance. I take pride in mentoring junior testers and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality features while continuously improving testing processes.
