What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead test automation efforts, improve CI/CD practices, mentor engineers, and ensure high-quality, reliable releases in collaborative Agile teams.

I am a Senior Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) with extensive experience designing and maintaining automated test suites for API, web, mobile and desktop applications. I have led small test teams, introduced CI/CD test automation practices using Docker and Jenkins/GitHub Actions, and consistently delivered high-quality releases with robust regression coverage.

My technical strengths include API testing with RestAssured and Postman, UI automation with Cypress and Selenium, mobile automation with Appium, and integrating test results with tools like TestRail and Confluence. I focus on creating maintainable automation, improving test reliability, and collaborating closely with developers through PR reviews and cross-functional guidance.
