👆QA Engineer & QA Specialist - 10+ Years in Quality Assurance I'm a Senior QA Engineer, QA automation specialist, and QA tester with 9+ years of experience across FinTech, Healthcare, eCommerce and SaaS products. As a QA specialist, I help startups and mid-size teams turn ad-hoc checks into real quality assurance - from a single pre-launch QA testing pass to a full QA automation framework. Whether you need a thorough manual testing pass before launch, an automated testing framework from scratch, or a strategic QA testing audit, I bring the expertise to deliver. ⚙️ CORE SERVICES & SKILLS ✅ Manual Testing & Manual QA - exploratory, smoke, sanity, end-to-end, web and mobile ✅ QA Automation & Automated Testing - Selenium automation, Playwright and Cypress ✅ Functional Testing - business logic, user flows, feature validation ✅ API Testing - REST/GraphQL validation and schema checks ✅ Web Testing - cross-browser compatibility and frontend quality ✅ Mobile App Testing - native and hybrid, iOS and Android ✅ Performance Testing - load, stress, response-time benchmarking ✅ Regression Testing - structured suites for release stability ✅ Usability Testing - QA tester-led UX feedback that improves conversion ✅ Beta Testing - early adopter programs building on manual QA feedback ✅ Bug Tracking & Reports - severity, SLA tracking for every QA tester on the team ✅ Test Case Design - reusable, maintainable documentation ✅ Software Testing Strategy - end-to-end QA testing roadmaps 📋 PROJECT TYPES & DELIVERABLES → Pre-launch QA audit - manual QA review and a quality assurance readiness check → QA process setup a QA specialist's foundations for teams starting from zero → Test automation implementation - Selenium automation, Playwright, or Cypress in CI/CD → Regression testing optimization - less manual effort via targeted QA automation → QA consulting - a QA specialist's take on strategy, tools and QA analyst guidance → Ongoing QA support - manual testing, QA tester coverage and automation upkeep → Platform-specific QA - dedicated QA engineer support for Magento tester projects 📊 CASE STUDIES 1️⃣ FinTech Payments - QA Testing Process from Scratch Joined a 5-person FinTech team with no formal quality assurance process. As their QA engineer, I audited Jira, introduced severity-based triage and built a regression checklist for payment flows — combining manual QA fundamentals with hands-on QA automation. Ran functional, API, performance and usability testing with merchants. Result: average bug resolution time dropped ~35%, manual regression time fell ~40% and 18 critical payment-flow defects found pre-launch. The client kept me on as their go-to QA specialist since. 2️⃣ Healthcare SaaS - Manual QA tester & QA Automation for Audits Worked as the QA specialist owning quality assurance for a healthcare platform serving 200+ clinics. Combined QA testing with automated coverage (Selenium, Playwright) across patient records, clinician usability, API and mobile testing - the team's hands-on QA tester ahead of every audit. Result: regression time per release dropped from ~16 hours to under 6 and six straight compliance audits passed with zero critical defects. 3️⃣ eCommerce Platform - QA Automation Audit & Selenium/Playwright PoC Brought in as QA engineer for a QA testing audit and gap analysis, plus a Selenium vs. Playwright/Cypress maintainability brief. Built a modular PoC (POM, data-driven) covering search, checkout and key API flows, blending manual QA insight with automation-first thinking, wired into GitHub Actions with pass/fail reporting. Result: ~30 automated test cases covering ~80% of the critical checkout flow, cutting manual regression effort in half. 👉 HOW I WORK ① Discovery call - understanding your product, team, and quality assurance goals ② Assessment - evaluating current QA testing maturity as a QA specialist, plus quick wins ③ Execution - manual QA, QA automation, or a blended approach for your scope ④ Documentation - test case design, bug reports, and a clear QA testing summary ⑤ Handoff - recommendations plus optional ongoing QA engineering support Clients get a QA tester for Agile/Scrum workflows and a QA engineer who thinks like a product owner, PCI DSS- and HIPAA-aware for FinTech and Healthcare. 🛠 TOOLS & TECH STACK Selenium WebDriver, Playwright, Cypress, Jira, TestRail, Postman, Charles Proxy, GitHub Actions/Jenkins, BrowserStack/Sauce Labs, and Magento. 🤝 WHO I WORK WITH Over the years, I've embedded into teams of every shape - collaborating daily with every full-stack developer, web designer, project manager and DevOps engineer on the roster.
