EgyptWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software Test Engineer and Test Team Lead with ISTQB Foundation and ISTQB Agile certifications, backed by a BSc in Electronics and Communication Engineering and a professional QA diploma from ITI.

Over several years I have delivered testing across payments, telecom, embedded systems and web platforms at companies including Fawry (FIS), Coral Technology, Santechture and Vodafone outsourcing teams. I lead testing efforts from early refinement to final delivery, drive estimations and resource utilization, and actively triage defects with product and development teams.
