What I'm looking for

I seek remote US roles where I can lead QA automation, improve CI/CD test integration, scale teams, and drive measurable quality improvements.

I am a Senior Software Development Engineer in Test with 12+ years designing and implementing automated and manual testing strategies for both enterprise and startup environments. I specialize in JavaScript-based automation frameworks like Playwright, API testing, CI/CD integration, and Agile delivery for US-based companies, and I collaborate closely with distributed teams to deliver high-quality software at scale.

In leadership roles I have scaled QA organizations, implemented shift-left testing and quality KPIs, and driven operational improvements that supported stable releases and revenue growth. I focus on pragmatic test strategy, reliable automation, and cross-functional partnership to improve release reliability and accelerate feedback cycles.
