Test automation developer at RevistaPresei.ai, building a news clustering engine that groups 1,500 articles into top stories.

Romania

Message

At RevistaPresei.ai, I founded and built a Romanian news aggregator that gathers coverage from 120+ national and regional outlets. I designed its clustering engine to group roughly 1,500 articles per run into the day's top stories.

I also built a multi-provider LLM summarization pipeline that cut model calls by about 75%, and automated Facebook and Instagram publishing through the Meta Graph API. By moving CPU-heavy processing to worker threads and optimizing similarity computation, I reduced worst-case response time from 87 seconds to under 3 seconds.

Previously, at Anritsu, I led the migration of a legacy Selenium framework to Playwright for telecom software. My experience also includes Python-based testing for automotive software at Continental, web and Android automation at Ness Digital Engineering, and validation of Abbott's ID NOW™ diagnostic instrument.
