I build robust test coverage for cloud platforms, connected devices, and APIs.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
At Genetec, I design test strategies for cross-team cloud and connected-device initiatives, finding specification gaps and validating workflows across cloud platforms, firmware, and access control systems.
I've built and maintained Playwright and TypeScript automation for Security Center SaaS, including device enrollment, navigation, event validation, and the team's first speaker enrollment test. I also use direct HTTP API testing, Azure DevOps pipelines, code review, and AI-assisted workflows that I independently validate.
My background spans product support, hardware QA, embedded and IoT validation, mobile testing, optical systems, SQL troubleshooting, and network analysis. I enjoy turning difficult-to-reproduce failures into actionable findings and strengthening coverage through thoughtful test design.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Extended test coverage beyond UI by calling device HTTP APIs directly, authored test strategies for cross-team epics, and developed Playwright/TypeScript automated tests. Led a test infrastructure audit and surfaced long-standing defects through exploratory and regression testing.
Ranked among top ten in support team by case resolution volume, built a packet-capture harness to catch intermittent faults, and performed hardware validation for access control devices. Queried production MS SQL databases and diagnosed network issues using Wireshark.
