What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Senior QA Engineer role in an Agile team where I can lead quality initiatives, expand automation (Cypress/Playwright), work on UX-focused regulated products, and collaborate to improve delivery and user experience.

I am an ISTQB-certified QA Engineer with 8+ years ensuring software quality across regulated and user-focused industries, including finance, healthcare, and SaaS. I focus on structured test methods, UX/UI validation, API testing, and data verification to improve product reliability.

I lead test design and execution for functional, integration, regression, and UAT cycles, writing SQL for backend validation and designing API tests with Postman. I also contribute to automation suites using Cypress and Playwright to reduce manual regression effort and improve release confidence.

I collaborate closely with developers, business analysts, and product teams in Agile environments to refine acceptance criteria, drive defect triage, and deliver a better user experience. I take pride in clear documentation, actionable bug reports, and continuous process improvements that raise product quality.
