About Me

I’m a QA Automation Engineer with a background in both manual and automated testing, skilled in prgramming languages - Java, JavaScript and Python also in automation frameworks - Selenium, and Playwright. I’ve started learning programming and web technologies since 2021. Since then, I’ve built a strong technical foundation through structured courses, personal projects, and continuous self-learning.


I specialize in developing and maintaining end-to-end automated test suites using the Page Object Model (POM). My experience also covers test case design, bug reporting, API testing, and test planning. I’ve worked independently and in teams on various projects, including almost fully automating tests.


I bring a detail-oriented and goal-driven approach to every project, with a focus on quality, scalability, and collaboration. I’m currently seeking opportunities where I can contribute to building reliable, high-quality software while continuing to grow as a QA professional.
