My expertise lies in validating authentication systems, identity and access management (IAM), and API/UI workflows using advanced tools such as Playwright, Cypress, and Selenium. I am committed to delivering scalable, user-focused solutions that enhance product quality and user experience.

Throughout my career, I have successfully designed and executed comprehensive test cases, automated critical workflows, and improved test coverage significantly. My role at Pycs involved integrating QA into CI/CD pipelines and ensuring compliance with ISO/SOC standards. I have a proven track record of collaborating cross-functionally to uncover hidden bugs and enhance overall product quality, making me a valuable asset to any team.
