What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote QA Automation or SDET role in an international team, focused on UI/API automation, integrations, and backend testing. I’m interested in complex products where I can grow technically and improve test automation and product quality. Open to employment and B2B/contract opportunities.

I’m a QA Automation Engineer with 7+ years of experience in software testing, including 3+ years focused on UI and API test automation with Java, Selenide, RestAssured, and JUnit.

I worked on enterprise banking and microservices-based systems, covering UI, API, database, integration, and regression testing. My automation work helped reduce regression testing time from 4 days to 1 day. I also previously led a QA team of 6 engineers and have commercial experience with React and TypeScript.

Currently, I’m expanding my hands-on experience with Playwright, Spring Boot, Docker, WireMock, RabbitMQ, and PostgreSQL. I’m based in Serbia and interested in remote international QA Automation, SDET, and Fullstack QA opportunities.
