What I'm looking for

I seek QA or analyst roles where I can apply cybersecurity knowledge, build scalable test strategies, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow into automation or security-focused responsibilities.

I am a Quality Assurance Analyst with a Master's in Cybersecurity and practical experience testing customer-facing software and devices across global environments.

I design scalable test strategies, create test cases, and execute both manual and basic–intermediate automated testing to ensure reliability and localization readiness.

I collaborate closely with Product, UX, and Engineering teams to translate customer usage models into real-world test plans, lead bug triage, and produce data-driven quality reports that support on-time delivery.

My background includes security and networking fundamentals, defect management, and business analysis experience—helping drive efficiency gains and traceable requirements throughout the SDLC.
