QA Engineer / SDET | Backend Engineering (.NET) | AI Automation & Integration

I’m a software engineer with a strong quality engineering mindset and a solid backend development foundation.
I’ve worked across Python automation, .NET backend development (VB.NET), and now QA/SDET, building reliable test systems, improving CI/CD signal, and debugging complex issues end-to-end.

I’m also actively involved in AI work: from training computer vision models early on, to building and integrating AI tools (chatbots/LLM workflows) into products and testing them reliably.

• Tracing issues across UI → API → services → logs
• Reproducing production-like problems and isolating root cause
• Thinking in scenarios and failure modes (async flows, retries, race conditions, partial failures)

• Designing regression strategy and high-signal test coverage
• Building automation suites/frameworks for web + API
• Reducing flaky tests and improving reliability of CI pipelines
• Writing crisp bug reports with steps, evidence, and logs

• Several years building backend features in .NET / VB.NET
• Strong collaboration with engineering teams because I’ve shipped backend code
• Comfortable validating data flows, correctness, and integration behavior

• Built a computer vision model (TensorFlow) to detect seatbelt usage / cellphone usage while driving
• Worked on AI integrations like chatbots and AI-assisted workflows
• Interested in “AI-first quality”: regression testing LLM features, preventing drift, and building evaluation harnesses

• TensorFlow CV model: Detect seatbelt + cellphone usage while driving (training + testing pipeline)

• Built Python + Selenium automations to extract product data from multiple sites
• Used pandas to clean/transform output into upload-ready Excel/CSV for Shopify/WordPress workflows

• Built and maintained regression automation suites (web + API)
• Improved CI reliability by separating environment/config issues from product defects
• Focused on “high signal” automation rather than writing tests that only create noise

Languages: Python, .NET (VB.NET), JavaScript (for automation)
Automation: Selenium, Cypress (learning Playwright)
API Testing: Postman
CI/CD: Jenkins, Azure DevOps
Data: pandas, Excel/CSV pipelines
Collaboration: Git, Jira, Confluence

Roles where I can combine my strengths in:

• SDET / QA Automation / Quality Platform
• Backend-heavy testing (APIs, event-driven systems, distributed workflows)
• AI integration testing / LLM quality (agents, chatbots, RAG)

I prefer engineering-heavy quality work over repetitive manual testing.

If you’re building systems where reliability, integrations, and quality matter, I’d love to connect.
