What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA role where I can own manual test design, accessibility validation, and defect lifecycle in Agile teams—using Azure DevOps/Jira and AI-assisted insights—to deliver high-quality web and mobile software.

I’m a Manual QA Tester with over 6 years of experience ensuring quality across web and mobile applications. I design and execute test cases (regression, smoke, sanity, black-box, integration, and UAT), validate accessibility against WCAG 2.2, and support testing with basic API checks using Postman.

In Agile/Scrum teams, I’m trusted to manage the full defect lifecycle, collaborate on testing scope estimations, and document clear reproduction steps to resolution. In recent work, I’ve used Azure DevOps and Jira to run cross-platform validation (iOS, Android, Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS), verify backend state with SQL Server Management Studio queries, and strengthen requirement understanding with AI tools like Claude.
