What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an SDET or test automation role where I can apply CI/CD and AWS skills to build robust automation, improve release quality, and grow within a collaborative, quality-focused team.

I am a Software Quality Assurance Engineer and Software Development Engineer in Test who combines automation, manual testing, and cloud deployment expertise. I focus on building reliable, maintainable test frameworks that improve release quality.

I have implemented test automation solutions using Selenium, Serenity, Cucumber, and Healenium to reduce regression cycles and improve test stability. I routinely integrate testing into CI/CD pipelines and manage AWS-based deployments.

My hands-on practice includes API testing with Postman, test management with Tricentis qTest and Jira, and version control with GitHub.

I hold certifications in AWS Cloud Practitioner and multiple Java and Selenium courses, which I leverage to bridge QA and cloud operations. I seek a collaborative, quality-focused engineering team where I can scale automation, mentor peers, and accelerate safe releases.
