About

As a QA Engineer at Adarga in London since July 2020, I have been instrumental in defining and automating test cases to verify product requirements. My contributions extend to architectural and design decisions for test frameworks, conducting code reviews, and maintaining the quality of both automation code and test coverage. I have configured the automation solution on CircleCI, documented the automation framework, and actively participated in test execution, issue resolution, and the release process. Additionally, I promoted a strong test culture within the team, presented innovative ideas, and utilized GraphQL via Postman for data validation. Prior to Adarga, I held the position of Senior QA Engineer at BabylonHealth from September 2018 to July 2020, where I defined acceptance criteria for various projects and served as a release manager for the mobile application. My role involved writing automation tests using Cypress, creating test strategies, designing and developing test plans, and executing test cases. At Tictrac, from September 2016 to September 2018, I contributed to the automation framework with Appium, performed manual tests on iOS and Android, and acted as a release manager. My career in QA began with roles at Hostelbookers and LoveFilm, where I provided exploratory and acceptance testing, created automated test scripts with Selenium WebDriver/Java, and participated in team planning and story grooming sessions. I hold a BSc in Information Systems from the University of Westminster and have furthered my education with a BSC Foundation in Artificial Intelligence and ISEB certification.

Best back-end engineers I've ever worked with.

“I interviewed about a dozen different firms. DevsData LLC is truly exceptional – their backend developers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with a lot of very well-qualified developers, locally in San Francisco, and remotely, so that is not a compliment I offer lightly. I appreciate their depth of knowledge and their ability to get things done quickly.”
