What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a remote Senior QA Engineer or QA Lead role across the EU, where I can lead release-scale manual and regression testing, strengthen QA strategy, and continue developing test automation skills.

At Firebird Tours, I've supported 122 scheduled production releases and served as Release QA Lead or Release Duty Engineer for 39 of them. I've first-tested 465 tasks, reported 386 defects and improvement tickets, and validated backend functionality through Postman and OpenAPI.

As an embedded QA lead, I led QA strategy and prioritization for a 10-person team, improved regression efficiency by 35%, and reduced onboarding time from one month to two weeks for five engineers. I also flagged risks before development on major features and used Cursor to improve test design and planning.

Previously at Techart Group, I owned full web and mobile test cycles across healthcare, e-commerce, and fintech projects. I'm continuing to build automation skills through an independent Playwright and TypeScript project.
