What I'm looking for

Seeking a team-focused role that leverages my skills in test automation, database management, and user experience to deliver high-quality software products.

As a seasoned Quality Assurance and Data Management Specialist with over 8 years of experience, I have developed a strong expertise in software testing, facilitating business outcomes, and data management. My proficiency in test automation, database management, and user experience has enabled me to drive significant improvements in functionality, UI, and UX.

In my current role as a Quality Assurance Analyst at Harlow Consulting Group, I have successfully executed comprehensive API tests, implemented meticulous regression testing protocols, and optimized defect tracking and resolution efficiency. My experience in managing bug reports and regression tests in JIRA has fostered seamless collaboration between product managers and developers.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong ability to engineer detailed test cases and plans that are closely aligned with user story acceptance criteria and design documentation. My expertise in SQL, Selenium, and Github has enabled me to strengthen data integrity and optimize design and UX.
