I’m a Senior QA Engineer with 8+ years of experience across regulated platforms, financial markets systems, and SaaS products. I validate quality through strong QA strategy and test design, with deep hands-on work in backend, API, and database testing—covering functional and non-functional scenarios, data integrity, and integration flows. I build reliable automation and local test environments to validate production builds safely, and I support teams by improving tooling and repeatable release processes in agile settings. From test case ownership and cross-service verification to mentoring and defect/release visibility, I help teams ship with confidence while ensuring robust coverage across APIs, event-driven systems (like Kafka), and SQL-based data stores.
