What I'm looking for

I seek senior-level QA roles focusing on automation, test architecture, mentorship, and collaboration within Agile teams—preferably in regulated or cloud-native environments where I can improve test coverage and release reliability.

I am a Senior Automation QA Engineer with 7+ years of experience testing web and desktop applications, focused on Python-based automation using Selenium, Pytest, and CI/CD integrations. I drive quality for complex systems, including medical device software and cloud-native microservices.

I build and maintain test frameworks, develop custom libraries, and implement API and UI automation to improve regression speed and coverage; notable achievements include reducing regression time by 40% and cutting manual API testing by ~60%.

I mentor junior engineers, collaborate closely with developers and product owners in Agile teams, and prioritize reliable releases and patient safety when working on regulated products.
