Summary

I am a dedicated Software Engineer in Test with 6 years of experience in both software development and QA, allowing me to bring a unique and well-rounded perspective to my work. I began my career in backend development, building scalable systems using Python, Django, and FastAPI, and contributing to critical projects that optimized system performance and reliability. However, my passion for quality assurance and my desire to ensure software excellence led me back to testing, where I now leverage my development expertise to create robust automation frameworks that guarantee high system performance, reliability, and security. This transition has equipped me with a deep understanding of both the development and testing lifecycle, enabling me to approach projects holistically. I am committed to delivering high-quality software that meets business goals while maintaining a focus on user satisfaction and security. Looking forward, I am eager to grow with a forward-thinking organization where I can continue to enhance my skills in test automation and contribute to the company's long-term success. My goal is to stay with one company for the long term, becoming a key contributor to its growth and evolution while advancing my expertise in delivering exceptional, reliable software systems
