From Manual to Automation – QA That Delivers
I'm a QA and Automation Specialist with 10+ years of professional experience, passionate about ensuring software quality through rigorous testing and continuous improvement. From startups to enterprise environments, I’ve helped teams deliver stable, secure, and high-performing software across a wide range of platforms and technologies.
My journey:
I started my QA career in 2008 at Ultimus and steadily grew through roles at Ikonami, EnterpriseDB, and Bitnine Global — eventually becoming a Principal PostgreSQL Technical Support Engineer and Staff Software Development Engineer II. My experience includes not only QA automation but also database support, performance benchmarking, replication, and DevOps integration.
My Core Expertise:
• Full-cycle QA (manual + automated) with Selenium, Cypress, JMeter, SOAPUI
• Extensive experience with PostgreSQL, Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server & Sybase
• Built and maintained automation suites for critical tools like pgAdmin, Replication Server, and Migration Toolkits
• Hands-on with Docker, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, AWS, and Linux systems
• Performance/load testing, release validation, and CI/CD test integration
Core Values:
• Precision: I believe every detail matters — from test case design to final release checks.
• Trust: I treat every freelance project with the same dedication as a full-time job.
• Learning: I regularly upskill via certifications, conferences, and community contributions.
Personal Anecdote:
I once caught a critical regression in a production release candidate just hours before the go-live — preventing a major data replication failure. Moments like these remind me why QA is the last but strongest line of defense in software development.
Ideal Clients:
• Startups needing fast, reliable QA automation and manual testing
• Teams migrating databases or optimizing PostgreSQL performance
• DevOps-focused projects integrating CI/CD pipelines
• Businesses that value thorough testing, clean releases, and fewer surprises
