Message

At Beqelal Payment, I own end-to-end quality assurance for digital payment platforms and financial services. I design functional, regression, integration, and API test strategies, and automate regression scenarios to improve release confidence.

At Kacha Digital Finance Tech, I led quality engineering initiatives for digital finance products serving financial institutions. I defined testing strategies aligned with business requirements and regulatory expectations, and validated systems across frontend, backend, APIs, and business workflows.

At Safaricom Ethiopia (via Gebeya), I led quality assurance for IVR, USSD, Web, Mobile, and backend integration platforms. I built and maintained automated test suites, validated RESTful services and databases, and supported performance and load testing.

I also worked as a Quality Assurance Engineer at Safaricom Ethiopia (via Gebeya), developing manual and automated test cases for enterprise telecom applications. I improved regression efficiency through Selenium and Cypress automation and supported release validation and production verification.
