What I'm looking for

I seek QA roles emphasizing API and accessibility testing, collaborative Agile teams, opportunities to improve test coverage, and environments that value clear reporting and continuous quality improvement.

I am a QA Analyst with hands-on experience in functional, regression, exploratory and accessibility testing, focused on delivering reproducible bug reports and improving release reliability. I hold ISTQB CTFL certification and have worked across web, mobile, API and database testing to validate end-to-end quality.

At Globant I defined and executed milestone regression suites, collaborated with developers and automation teams during sprints, and integrated regression outputs into release checklists to improve triage efficiency and release readiness. Previously, as a Game QC Analyst on major titles, I led exploratory testing, managed the defect lifecycle, and maintained technical test documentation across PC and console platforms.

I bring strong tooling proficiency in Jira, TestRail, Postman/Insomnia and SQL (DBeaver), plus accessibility (WCAG) and basic automation knowledge. I seek roles where I can strengthen testing practices, contribute to cross-functional teams, and help teams ship higher-quality products.
