What I'm looking for

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

I am a detail-oriented and results-driven software professional with over 5.5 years of experience, including 2 years as a Quality Assurance Tester and 3.5 years as a Software Developer. My expertise lies in identifying software bugs, creating test plans, and executing both automated and manual tests. I have a strong background in test case design and debugging, ensuring seamless software functionality while collaborating effectively with development teams to deliver high-quality products.

In my current role at Cybertill, I have successfully led manual testing efforts, automated regression testing processes using Selenium and Java, and performed comprehensive API testing using Postman. My commitment to continuous improvement is evident in my active participation in Agile ceremonies and my collaboration with product managers and stakeholders to refine requirements and optimize the testing process. I am passionate about enhancing product quality and user satisfaction through meticulous testing and effective communication.
