What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA role where I can own E2E automation with Playwright/TypeScript, apply white-box testing to speed root-cause analysis, and collaborate closely with developers using CI/CD and quality-first processes.

I’m a QA Engineer with 10+ years of frontend development experience, which helps me understand application internals, component logic, and code paths. I use that depth to build precise white-box tests, speed up root-cause analysis, and keep automation highly maintainable.

I specialize in E2E automation and full-lifecycle manual testing with Playwright and TypeScript, using the Page Object Model for scalable suites. I configure CI/CD with GitHub Actions, validate REST APIs with Postman, and run structured manual cycles (black-box, white-box, exploratory, regression, smoke) across desktop and Android—supported by Chrome DevTools and Android remote debugging.

In my current role, I have full ownership of automation strategy, manual testing, and product quality, including GitHub Actions reporting and triaging defects in Jira with test cases maintained in TestRail. Previously, I’ve worked as a Senior Frontend/UI QA Engineer and Frontend Developer across high-scale platforms, and I hold 2026 certifications in QA Automation (Playwright/JS) and Manual QA.
