What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my testing skills and offers growth opportunities in a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated Test Analyst with extensive experience in software testing and quality assurance. Over the years, I have honed my skills in business requirement analysis, test case design, and defect management, ensuring that software products meet the highest standards of quality. My journey began with a solid educational foundation in Information Technology, where I gained proficiency in various programming languages and testing tools.

Throughout my career, I have worked with reputable organizations such as FNB and Paracon, where I successfully led testing efforts for critical projects. My responsibilities included designing test cases, executing tests, and collaborating closely with development teams to address defects promptly. I take pride in my ability to adapt to new technologies and methodologies, which has allowed me to contribute effectively to diverse projects.

As I look to the future, I am eager to leverage my expertise in a challenging role that allows me to further develop my skills while contributing to innovative software solutions. I am passionate about continuous learning and thrive in collaborative environments where I can share my knowledge and learn from others.
