What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, encourages innovation, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am an experienced Software QA Engineer with over 3 years of expertise in both manual and automated testing. My proficiency in tools like Selenium WebDriver and Katalon Studio, combined with my strong analytical skills, allows me to ensure high software quality. I thrive in Agile environments, where I collaborate closely with developers and product managers to create robust test strategies and improve overall product reliability.

Throughout my career, I have successfully developed and implemented automated test scripts, conducted performance and API testing, and managed defect tracking using tools such as JIRA and TestRail. My commitment to quality assurance has led to significant improvements in test coverage and a reduction in post-production defects. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to contribute to innovative projects and drive software excellence.
