Shahnoza Rustamova-Solieva
@shahnozarustamova-so
Junior QA Engineer focused on manual testing, test design, and clear bug reporting—growing into automation.
What I'm looking for
I’m a QA specialist with hands-on manual testing experience through the international freelance platform uTest, plus product-quality experience as a Product Owner on a startup project. I enjoy turning unclear user flows into well-structured testing, test cases, and actionable bug reports.
On uTest, I performed exploratory and functional testing for projects including Idemia, Payoneer, and WarnerBros Discovery (HBOMAX). I completed 30 test cycles across 10 products, logging 16 bugs and authoring 15 test cases, and I finished the uTest Academy onboarding project to match the platform’s testing process.
As a ProductOwner / QA on a startup “Personal Finance App,” I tested the product at the prototype stage by verifying user flows and identifying UX and logic inconsistencies. I also completed a comparative analysis of 5+ competitor apps and built a Feature Matrix across 8 competitor products to prioritize MVP functionality.
I completed QA courses in 2024–2026, including QA Specialist (Manual) and QA Testing (Risk-Based Testing), and I’m expanding my skills in test design principles. I’m now seeking a Junior QA role to grow further in manual testing within a team, with a clear plan to move toward test automation.
