QA Automation Engineer specializing in Cypress-driven test automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a QA Automation Engineer with over seven years of hands-on experience building and maintaining automated test suites, primarily using Cypress for UI, API, and end-to-end testing.
I have a strong foundation in JavaScript and TypeScript and integrate test automation into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitHub Actions to ensure consistent execution with every deployment.
My background includes leading and scaling test teams, designing reusable modular test frameworks, executing performance and regression testing, and collaborating closely with developers and product managers in Agile environments to improve test coverage and issue resolution.
I hold several industry certifications including ISTQB performance and agile credentials and pursue continuous learning in areas such as AI, RPA, DevOps/SRE, and cybersecurity to drive quality and automation best practices.
