What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and continuous learning in a dynamic environment.

I am a Senior QA Consultant with over 5 years of hands-on experience in software testing. I take pride in delivering high-quality results across various development projects, tailoring my testing approach to meet customer specifications. My proficiency in modern testing techniques and advanced software development practices empowers me to drive excellence in every phase of the testing process.

Throughout my career, I have utilized tools such as Selenium WebDriver, Java, TestNG, and Cucumber BDD to design and implement automated test scripts, ensuring thorough UI and functional test coverage. I have successfully performed manual testing across functional, UI, cross-browser, and regression scenarios, identifying and logging critical defects in JIRA. My experience includes conducting performance testing with JMeter and validating API responses using Postman and REST Assured, all while collaborating closely with developers and business analysts in Agile/Scrum environments.
