Russian Federation

Message

At Ozon Bank, I developed and maintained Python-based E2E tests for banking processes, reduced the flaky test rate to 0%, and conducted business acceptance testing for critical scenarios. I also built expertise in B2B lending and banking processes while using LLMs and agents to support test automation.

At Nexign, I wrote Liquibase scripts for PostgreSQL, developed Ansible roles, and built Jenkins CI/CD pipelines. I also tested REST APIs with Postman and planned regression and release testing.
