What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role in an Agile/Scrum team where I can apply manual and exploratory testing, verify UI and data accuracy, and drive Jira-based defect resolution while collaborating closely with developers and business stakeholders.

I’m an ISTQB-certified QA Tester and Manual QA Engineer with hands-on experience in manual testing, exploratory testing, test case creation, bug reporting, and Jira-based defect tracking in Agile/Scrum teams. I verify software functionality, UI behavior, and data accuracy across web applications and internal systems, collaborating closely with developers and business teams to solve problems and improve quality.

My experience includes creating and executing functional, exploratory, and smoke tests, performing UI testing across key user flows, logging and retesting defects, and validating data accuracy. I’ve also worked in data quality, identifying data defects and integrity issues, supporting internal quality reviews for client-ready deliverables, and maintaining consistent product data structures in proprietary systems.
