What I'm looking for

I'm expanding my career into Product Ownership, combining my QA experience with product thinking, user empathy, and continuous improvement.

At Designli, I own the product backlog for a subscription-based web platform, from discovery to release. I turn stakeholder feedback into prioritized scope, write detailed user stories and acceptance criteria, and verify delivered flows before they’re considered done.

I bring my QA background into product decisions at Designli, incorporating end-to-end testing and accessibility into the definition of done. I also track adoption and conversion metrics to help answer product questions with data.

Before moving into Product Ownership, I worked across QA, software development, and UX/UI design. At EsAPP, I created foundations for automated UI and API testing with Java, Selenium, TypeScript, and Playwright; at Status Red Legal, I contributed to interface design and developed backend components with Java and Spring Boot.
