What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on QA role focused on automation (Selenium/Java), API and mobile testing, opportunities to lead a small team, work in Agile environments, and drive end-to-end quality for customer-facing products.

I am a Software QA Engineer with 5.7 years of experience specializing in UI and automation testing using Selenium WebDriver and Java.

I led and coordinated a team of six to meet project objectives, guiding testing strategy and execution. I successfully migrated a critical transaction authorization system and spearheaded automation for a new customer acquisition model, improving reliability and reach.

I work across web, mobile (Android and iOS) and API testing, executing functional, regression, performance and compatibility tests. I'm fluent with tools like Selenium, SoapUI, Postman, JIRA, Git, Datadog, Crashlytics, IntelliJ, TablePlus and Grafana.

I have contributed to projects including Pay2Go, Trans Auth-Postilion Migration, Greenlight, Emmiera, Viaero and INDIGITAL/NXTDIGITAL. I seek opportunities to lead automation initiatives and ensure high-quality customer-facing products.
