Mboya Cliff
@mboyacliff
An experienced Software Test Engineer skilled in various frameworks. Passionate about automation, AI, Cybersecurity, and building scalable solutions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Software Test Engineer with over 5 years of hands-on experience architecting and scaling automation frameworks for SaaS and fintech platforms. My core experience lies in Java-based test automation using Selenium, Cypress, and TestNG, complemented by robust API testing with Postman.
I'm skilled at embedding automation into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and Azure DevOps to accelerate release cycles, reduce regression overhead, and enhance product reliability. My approach blends shift-left testing, DevOps principles, and scalable design to drive quality across the development lifecycle.
I’ve successfully delivered projects both locally in Kenya and internationally, collaborating across diverse teams and domains. Currently, I’m gradually expanding into cybersecurity to deepen my impact on not only testing software but also securing it and delivering market-ready solutions.
