Summary
I'm a passionate and experienced professional in quality assurance, with over 5 years of hands-on expertise in the field. My enthusiasm for technology drives me to stay ahead in the ever-evolving world of software development. Throughout my career, I have consistently applied the agile SCRUM methodology to my projects, collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality solutions on time. In my recent role, I contributed to reducing project delivery times by 30% through the implementation of streamlined agile practices. My tech stack primarily revolves around Node.js and JavaScript/TypeScript, which I use to develop efficient and robust solutions. My strong proficiency in cloud-based technologies, especially AWS, has enabled me to build scalable and reliable applications that can adapt to varying demands. One of my notable achievements includes developing testing frameworks from scratch where I was able to reduce the time needed for the tests to 50%. Additionally, my experience with several tech stacks has empowered me to create solutions that are both cost-effective and highly resilient. I am always eager to embrace new challenges and leverage my skills to turn ambitious projects into successful realities. Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate to create innovative solutions that make a real impact.
