What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and improve automated quality processes for fintech or high-load distributed systems, with hands-on backend/API automation, CI/CD integration, stable regression coverage, and metrics-driven QA.

I've built Java test automation frameworks from scratch for digital banking platforms at Innotech Group (VTB), Ak Bars Digital Technologies, GDC (Alfa-Bank), and I-Teco (SberBank).

At Innotech Group, I developed backend automation for a distributed architecture of 70+ microservices, reached 63% coverage of key business processes, configured Jenkins quality pipelines, and introduced Grafana QA metrics.

Across brokerage, payroll, and retail banking products, I've automated API, web, and mobile testing, delivered 600 automated tests with a 25-minute runtime, automated 57% of manual regression, and reduced regression flakiness to 2% per release.
