PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY I am a QA Engineer with more than seven years of experience in manual and automated testing. I have worked across CRM, SaaS, and logistics projects, combining exploratory/manual testing with building strong automation frameworks. My main expertise is in Playwright (TypeScript) for UI and API testing, creating reliable automation that reflects real user behavior. I also have experience with Robot Framework, API validation, and continuous integration using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and Bitbucket Pipelines. Alongside automation, I regularly use Browser DevTools for debugging (network, performance, console) and perform hands-on manual testing to cover edge cases and usability issues that automation may miss. I focus on building practical solutions that help teams deliver stable, high-quality releases.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE Senior QA Automation Engineer, 02/2025 - Current nowtec solutions AG - Chișinău, Moldova

• Designed, developed, and executed robust End-to-End (E2E) automation tests using Playwright and TypeScript for critical CRM and logistics workflows, including client data management, order processing, and inventory updates.
• Validated complex user interfaces and RESTful APIs against technical requirements and user stories, ensuring data integrity and high product quality.
• Implemented and maintained critical smoke and regression checks within continuous integration pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines), significantly enhancing release stability and reducing deployment risks.
• Provided key insights through data analysis, delivering weekly dashboards to stakeholders that detailed defect trends, pass/fail rates, and risk-based release readiness, enabling data-informed decision-making.
• Orchestrated comprehensive regression testing efforts, ensuring that new features and bug fixes did not negatively impact existing functionalities, which was critical for maintaining product stability across releases.
• Expanded Playwright test suites within Docker containers, strategically increasing automated test coverage and efficiency.
• Actively collaborated in Agile ceremonies (backlog grooming, sprint reviews) to clarify acceptance criteria, identify potential risks, and proactively mitigate misunderstandings, fostering a strong QA-development partnership.
