What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue building automated test coverage, validating complex network features, and collaborating with developers in Agile teams through the full testing lifecycle.

At Cisco, I test and validate L2/L3 features including multicast, OSPF, FNF, telemetry, and Meraki on Cat9k switches using IXIA traffic generation. I lead a system-integration-test automation project that verifies feature interoperability across large topologies and confirms traffic forwards without drops.

I build and maintain Python and pyATS automation for every release, replicate customer-reported defects, and document reproducible Jira bugs for developers. Earlier, I developed automation tools at Ericsson and researched embedded systems code at Carleton University.
