What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills in automation and quality assurance, offers opportunities for professional growth, and fosters a collaborative team environment.

As a Senior Quality Assurance Automation Engineer with over a decade of experience, I have honed my skills in Agile software development environments, focusing on delivering high-quality software solutions. My expertise lies in creating and executing comprehensive test plans, developing automated testing frameworks, and conducting thorough API and database testing. I am passionate about ensuring software quality and customer satisfaction, and I thrive in collaborative settings, working closely with cross-functional teams to achieve project goals.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led initiatives that significantly improved testing efficiency and reduced regression testing time by 40%. My role at FedTec involved designing automated test scripts using Selenium and WebDriverIO, conducting API testing with Postman and REST-assured, and integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins. I am committed to driving process improvements and staying current with emerging trends in quality assurance, which has allowed me to propose and implement strategies that enhance overall testing effectiveness.

My educational background in Computer Science, coupled with certifications such as Certified Software Test Engineer (CSTE) and AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, further solidifies my foundation in software testing. I am dedicated to continuous learning and skill development, and I take pride in mentoring junior QA engineers to foster a culture of knowledge sharing and professional growth.
