What I'm looking for

I'm looking to advance software quality through modern automation, test management, and reliable SDLC practices that build trust between clients, products, and teams.

I'm providing quality assurance for Alliance at Intelex Technologies, building automated integration, regression, E2E, API, and contract tests across C# microservices, JavaScript front ends, Azure SQL, Azure Service Bus, and Azure Event Hubs.

At Wipro, I increased automated test coverage for banking-critical software by nearly 60% while keeping flakiness below 10%, and built database validation and anomaly-detection processes that contributed to a 20% build-time improvement. Previously at Siemens, I validated exact-match electrical calculations for Spectrum Power 7 and helped move Fortran, C, API, and UI testing into reliable GitLab CI/CD pipelines.

Across my work, I use shift-left practices, risk-based testing, and automation to build trust between clients, products, and teams. I also developed a computer-vision system for an autonomous robotics competition, achieving over 92% terrain-classification and obstacle-detection accuracy on Raspberry Pi hardware.

Senior Quality Assurance Enginner Consultant

Jan 2026 - Jan 2026 (0 months)

• Provide quality assurance for Alliance, a module of Intelex's V6 EHSQ platform — C# microservices on Microsoft Service Fabric with a JavaScript front end — designing and maintaining automated integration, regression, and E2E suites that validate service-to-service communication and business-critical flows, prioritized through risk-based testing and the test pyramid.
• Built comprehensive API

Senior QA Engineer

Jan 2025 - Jan 2026 (1 year)

• Implemented automated acceptance and E2E tests in C# (NUnit, Selenium) for banking-critical software, increasing test coverage by nearly 60% while keeping flakiness below 10%; adapted an existing manual test plan to automation in close collaboration with manual testers for maximum impact and a smooth transition.
• Built API contract and stress tests with Postman and JMeter — automated within

AutoZone Business and Technology Store Support Center logoAC

Senior QA Engineer

Jan 2024 - Jan 2025 (1 year)

• Designed and implemented a BDD automation framework using Java, Cucumber (Gherkin), and Selenium on the Page Object Model (POM) pattern, with custom lifecycle hooks, WebDriverManager for automated driver management, and cross-browser execution — enabling plain-text feature files and a more collaborative team workflow.
• Developed support libraries for logging, error handling, and warnings (Ja

Siemens logoSI

Quality Assurance Engineer

Jan 2021 - Jan 2024 (3 years)

• Participated in the development of Spectrum Power 7's electrical calculation system — a Fortran core invoked through C, C++, and Java layers, exposed via a Python REST API (Flask) on a Siemens-proprietary web server — validating calculation accuracy against known-correct reference values from masked real client data, with exact-match precision required for critical software.
• Drove a shift-

Team Member of Robotics Team at PUCPR

Jan 2021 - Jan 2024 (3 years)

During a university robotic trekking competition, I developed the computer vision system for an autonomous robot using Python, OpenCV, and PyTorch. I built and optimized a CNN for real-time terrain classification and obstacle detection, enabling the robot to navigate complex, uneven paths autonomously. The system achieved over 92% accuracy on embedded hardware (Raspberry Pi), and the robot success

Robot Process Automation

Apr 2020 - Oct 2020 (6 months)

With experience in Python-based automation frameworks and a background in quality engineering, I have practical skills relevant to Robotic Process Automation (RPA). I have developed automated test scripts using UiPath to simulate user interactions and validate system workflows — a foundation that translates directly to designing RPA bots for repetitive UI-based tasks.
