What I'm looking for

I seek a quality-focused role where I can apply manual and API testing skills, improve processes, and work cross-functionally to deliver reliable products.

I am a Junior QA Manual Engineer with hands-on experience testing web and API applications, emphasizing functional, regression, and smoke testing. I apply test design techniques such as equivalence partitioning, boundary value analysis, decision tables, state transition and pairwise to improve coverage and catch defects early.

My background includes REST API testing with Postman and Swagger, SQL validation using PostgreSQL, and defect tracking and verification in Jira. I have experience in process management, KPI monitoring, and structured data analysis from a managerial role in a high-load environment, which reinforced my process-oriented mindset and attention to detail.

I communicate effectively across stakeholders and produce clear, reproducible bug reports while continuously seeking process improvements. I am motivated to contribute to quality-focused teams and ensure reliable product delivery through disciplined testing and data validation.
