I am Bogdanova Olga, a Senior QA Engineer with broad experience across backend, APIs, UI, and data-heavy systems. I specialize in test strategy, risk-based regression, defect triage, and release readiness in distributed teams, and I enjoy translating requirements into solid test plans and reliable releases. I thrive in fast-paced environments, work hands-on with CI/CD, Docker-based test environments, SQL validation across multiple databases and cloud data sources, and I actively apply AI (Claude, OpenAI) to improve code quality, documentation, and automate routine tasks.
