What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role that fosters growth, collaboration, and innovation in QA.

I'm a dedicated Software Quality Assurance Engineer with over five years of hands-on experience in both manual and automated testing. My passion lies in delivering high-quality software that works seamlessly. I have honed my skills in tools like Selenium, Appium, and Postman, building a solid foundation in API, performance, web, and mobile testing using modern automation frameworks.

Throughout my career, I have consistently improved test coverage, shortened regression cycles, and championed ongoing quality enhancements in Agile settings. My experience includes mentoring junior testers, conducting performance and load testing, and creating detailed test documentation to enhance stakeholder visibility. I thrive on challenges and continuously seek opportunities to sharpen my skills through freelance projects and mentoring others.
