Russian FederationWhat I'm looking for
I’m a QA Engineer with 5 years of experience in manual and automated testing for Web and Mobile. I strongly focus on Backend/API testing (GraphQL) and mobile debugging, and I use my testing mindset to validate complex backend logic and data integrity.
I maintain and improve E2E automated test suites using Python (Pytest) and Ruby (RSpec), while also building and optimizing UI automation with Playwright/JavaScript. I’ve worked in international cross-functional teams, collaborated directly with US-based stakeholders, and managed the full bug-reporting lifecycle in Jira and Redmine from discovery to verification.
