What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Software Developer and Test Engineer with a solid foundation in Java development and hands-on experience in cloud technologies. My proficiency in AWS services, relational databases, and software testing frameworks allows me to build and optimize infrastructure and applications effectively.

Currently, I work as a Software Test Engineer at Chickasaw Nation Industries, where I developed over 200 regression tests using the Cucumber BDD/DDT framework, significantly increasing testing efficiency. My experience includes executing data validation processes on large datasets, achieving a remarkable accuracy rate of 95% in dashboard precision. I am passionate about ensuring comprehensive validation of system functionality through User Acceptance Testing and enhancing overall test coverage through robust web services testing.
My technical training at the AWS Cloud Institute has further honed my skills in cloud technologies, where I completed over 100 labs and built cloud-based solutions using AWS services and Python. I am eager to apply my knowledge and skills to solve real-world industry challenges and contribute to innovative projects.
