What I'm looking for

I’m looking for QA work where I can own test modules end-to-end, build automation with Playwright/Python, and partner with developers to cut regression time and prevent production-critical defects.

I’ve delivered quality across Powersoft Nineteen’s IoT Weapon Tracking System and Embedded Access Control & Identity Management (SaaS), driving requirements analysis, smoke/sanity/regression, and integration testing across mobile, web, and IoT platforms.

At Powersoft Nineteen, I independently owned critical QA modules—reducing access-card lifecycle defects by 70%, cutting regression time by 40%, and helping ensure releases with zero critical production defects. I also built TestCraft with Playwright, Python, pytest, and AI-assisted failure analysis to speed up root-cause investigations.
