What I'm looking for

I’m open to remote roles where I can own API/backend and performance testing in Agile teams, collaborate cross-functionally, and grow into stronger automation (including Playwright) to improve quality and release confidence.

I’m a QA Engineer with 3 years of experience validating API, backend, functional, and performance testing across enterprise applications. I focus on testing REST APIs, debugging production issues, and performing database validation using BigQuery, AWS Athena, and MySQL, while ensuring business logic and data consistency through SQL validation.

In my recent role, I independently handled testing for 2 projects, designed and executed functional and regression test cases, and ran performance testing with JMeter to validate stability and response handling. I also use Kibana for log analysis, collaborate with developers and stakeholders to resolve defects in Agile sprint cycles, and contribute to automation initiatives using Selenium and TestNG—while aiming to expand my automation testing expertise with modern frameworks like Playwright.
