What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth in automation and cloud technologies.

I am a highly diligent and solution-driven IT professional with over 5 years of experience in Quality Assurance, specializing in QA Automation Framework Development. My journey has equipped me with a robust skill set in both manual and automated testing, complemented by 2 years of hands-on experience in cloud technologies, including Docker, Kubernetes, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). I have a proven track record of leveraging my expertise in Agile methodologies, risk mitigation, and team management to deliver high-quality software solutions.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed end-to-end release processes, deployed applications on various cloud platforms, and developed automation test scripts using tools like Selenium and Perl. My commitment to continuous improvement is evident in my active participation in sprint preparations and retrospective analyses, ensuring that each iteration of our projects is better than the last. I am passionate about fostering a collaborative team environment and sharing knowledge on automation tools to enhance our collective performance.
