What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a remote QA opportunity where I can keep growing in test automation and software quality while contributing to reliable release validation in an Agile team.

I've built and maintained automated test coverage at SIMPLYWORFLOW LTD using Laravel Dusk, helping validate new features and releases before deployment.

I create regression workflows, execute manual and automated testing, log defects in Jira, and use SQL to prepare and validate test data. I work closely with developers through Git/GitHub, Scrum, and iterative release validation.

Before moving into QA, I developed ERP and Human Resources modules at RCSOFT, working with business logic, multilingual documents, payroll, vacation management, and employee records. That development background helps me understand application behaviour and communicate effectively with engineering teams.
