@irwansyarifudin
Experienced Software Engineer in Test specializing in automation, performance, and QA leadership.
What I'm looking for
I am a Software Engineer in Test with 6+ years of experience building automation frameworks, leading performance testing, and improving test strategies for startups and scaleups. I have a proven record of implementing API automation, CI/CD pipelines, and quality gates that reduce post-deployment issues and improve stability.
At enterprise and product teams I built and maintained test frameworks using Playwright, Selenium, Appium, Cypress, and custom Ruby gems, and led load testing with K6 and JMeter. I’ve implemented mock services, optimized API coverage, and integrated testing into CI/CD workflows to ensure reliable releases.
I also mentor and teach: I led curriculum and hands-on QA training with high completion and satisfaction rates, upskilled QA teams, and contributed tooling such as an OpenAPI test case generator. I am passionate about scalable, maintainable testing practices and measurable quality improvements.
