What I'm looking for

I'm targeting QA / Test Automation Architect, Head of QA, QA Director or Manager, AI QA / AI Test Automation Lead, Principal SDET, and Quality Engineering Lead roles. I'm looking for remote-first work with EU and US-East overlap, on a B2B contract or EOR, full-time.

At Hitachi Engineering, I architected a production agentic AI testing pipeline using Claude Code and AWS Bedrock on live customer Playwright projects. It generates test cases to support manual and automation testing.

I also built a hybrid-retrieval RAG knowledge base for QA and a similarity-graph visualizer for QA artefacts. I turned the DeviceSure embedded test framework into an AI-enhanced platform and shipped a new RAG Forge UI.

At OpenBet, I merged two legacy QA teams into one Core Tech QA unit and led a move from Java Selenium to WebDriverIO with BDD. I also launched a QA Guild and built an MCP server that generates test design artefacts.

At Haltia.ai, I owned end-to-end QA strategy for an on-device LLM assistant and built a CI pipeline combining DeepEval benchmarks, Patrol UI automation and real-time model validation. Automating ML evaluation alongside UI tests cut regression cycle time by 40%.
