Experienced Software Tester with a passion for test automation.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced QA Software Tester with a Master’s in Management of Business Information Technology from The University of Greenwich. With 1.5 years of Agile development experience, I specialize in test automation, particularly in hybrid frameworks for web applications. My strong analytical skills are complemented by my proficiency in tools like JIRA for defect tracking and Power BI for test data analysis.
During my time at Lumen Technology Software, I developed a scalable hybrid automation framework that reduced testing time and costs by 30%. I actively participated in Agile development cycles, contributing to sprint planning and retrospectives. My academic projects, including an Employee Performance Analysis Dashboard, showcase my ability to transform raw data into actionable insights, demonstrating my commitment to data-driven decision-making.
I am eager to apply my business analysis and test automation skills in collaborative teams to drive project success. My background in user experience design and various testing methodologies positions me well for engaging in UI testing and adapting to new technologies in the field.
