Patricia Blidarean
@patriciablidarean
I’m a Senior Quality Analyst who improves debt-collection and software quality through data-driven QA and automation.
What I'm looking for
I’m an analytical, empathetic, and adaptable Quality Analyst with 6 years in Quality Control at Cerved Credit Collection (financial/banking). I create reporting in Excel and internal programs, evaluate debt collection agents and warning processes, and help improve procedures through client meetings (banks and energy companies in Italy) while using SQL and tools like AS400, ERP, and Microsoft Office.
I broadened my quality work into software testing as a QA/QC Manual&Automation Tester at Azimut, where I wrote test cases and bug reports, practiced functional and non-functional testing (including ISTQB-style exercises), and built/run automation tests with IntelliJ IDEA, Selenium, and Java. Before that, I strengthened process thinking through finance/accounting and HR recruitment support, which makes me effective at turning requirements into dependable outcomes.
