About

SDET | Senior QA Automation Engineer with 7+ years of experience in high-load systems and a strong background in Business Analysis. I specialize in designing and implementing test automation frameworks using Java, Playwright, and Selenium. My unique mix of QA Automation expertise and BA insight allows me to bridge the gap between complex business requirements and technical validation, ensuring full coverage of critical workflows and fast feedback loops. Technical Stack: Test Infrastructure: Java (Core, OOP), Playwright, Selenium WebDriver, TestNG. CI/CD & DevOps: GitHub Actions, Maven, Docker, Linux environment. Data & API Validation: REST/SOAP (Postman, SoapUI), SQL, MongoDB. Observability: ExtentReports, Log4j, failure-analysis and retry logic. I am open to SDET or QA Automation Engineer roles (Remote EU or relocation to the Netherlands).
