What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA role where I can lead end-to-end testing in Agile, strengthen quality standards, and expand automation across API/UI/ETL—partnering with teams to validate fixes fast, reduce defects, and deliver reliable releases.

I’m a QA Specialist who translates system requirements into test scenarios, aligning planning, design, and test execution across Waterfall and Agile. I support internal and external teams through the full testing flow, from early validation to customer homologation.

Across recent roles (including Test Specialist and QA Specialist), I perform test mapping and execution for ETL, API, and UI testing, manage processes to meet quality, function, and reliability standards, and validate fixes and changes against detailed interface requirements. I coordinate product testing, develop test cases, and create scenarios to validate new functionalities.

Earlier in my career, I led QA activities as a QA Lead—coordinating test teams, driving projects with squads, maintaining backlogs, and removing roadblocks to protect delivery dates. I also build automation using APIs and tools like JMeter and Cypress, and I’ve delivered mobile/browser compatibility testing (iOS/Android with Chrome and Edge) while improving defect analysis and regression coverage.
