About
I am an ISTQB Certified (CTFL) Senior QA Engineer with close to 4 years of experience in manual and automated testing within SaaS environments. I have hands-on expertise in Playwright UI automation, API testing with Postman, cross-browser validation, and end-to-end workflow testing across complex business platforms.
In my current and previous roles, I have taken ownership of QA processes for client-facing products, covering test planning, test case design, regression strategy, defect management, and release validation. I have built and maintained automation suites to improve regression efficiency and collaborated closely with developers and product managers to refine acceptance criteria and shift quality left.
I am comfortable working in distributed and remote teams, contributing to CI/CD workflows, validating backend data, and ensuring high product stability across frequent releases. I focus on structured testing, clear defect reporting, and continuously improving QA processes to support scalable and reliable software delivery.
