What I'm looking for

I seek QA roles focusing on manual and API testing within Agile teams, where I can improve test processes, increase coverage, and collaborate closely with developers to deliver high-quality software.

I am a results-driven QA Engineer with practical experience in manual testing, API testing using Postman and Swagger, and UAT for web and mobile applications. I develop, execute, and maintain test cases, scenarios, and scripts aligned with functional and technical requirements.

I accurately log, prioritize, and track bugs in Jira with detailed reproduction steps and collaborate closely with developers, participating in requirement analysis, sprint planning, and daily stand-ups to ensure alignment across QA, development, and product teams.

I manage staging and sandbox environments, suggest and implement QA process improvements to increase test coverage and reduce execution time, and bring strong analytical thinking, problem-solving, and communication skills to deliver quality software.
