What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment where I can leverage my QA expertise and contribute to innovative projects.

As a Senior QA Specialist with extensive experience in quality assurance, I have honed my skills in testing methodologies and project management. Currently, I work remotely for TestLauncher, where I contribute to the YouCanBookMe project, focusing on scheduling and calendar management services. My role involves rigorous testing of both frontend and backend components, ensuring the highest quality standards are met.

Throughout my career, I have been involved in significant projects, including my time at Globant, where I worked as a QC Analyst Ssr for the Los Angeles Times and San Diego Union Tribune. My responsibilities included functional testing, requirement analysis, and sprint planning using Agile methodologies. I take pride in my ability to lead teams, having transitioned from a QA Analyst to a QA team leader at BrainDW, where I managed both manual and automation testing for e-commerce clients.
