Experience: 9 years | English: fluent

I was a QA Leader in a complex project, which type was assigned to our outsourcing company for the first time. Thanks to that our company obtained orders not on the level of Black Box testing, but also Grey Box testing, executing End to End testing and testing complex integration systems like swapping Neo4j database instead of SQL database and test product's properties. This project has achieved its goals to make the website's performance better and our team has gained valuable experience to do complex testing. 

I have been onboarding personnel and teaching them the processes which were used in the company. More than 10 teammates were guided and successfully became Testers from the Intern level. Each of them selected their further specialisation.

I joined the project, which was not tested for more than 10 years, improved the Test Coverage, created Test Coverage matrix for regression testing, improved my skills in Test Design principles, and Windows Server-side testing.
Projects by business: E-commerce, Gambling, FinTech

I and my team have executed various types of testing and preparation to it when I was a QA Lead of a small team consisting of 3 members. Mainly we executed Web Testing on the following environments:  Desktop and Mobile, but also IOS, Android testing, API testing, Integration testing (SQL to NoSQL database Integration testing).

I like when my job requires both the preparation to testing part (work with User Stories and Use Cases, writing Test Scenarios, Test Cases, Check Lists or analysis of the graphical requirements and Wireframes Specification), but also Automation part. I have done automated testing using Python+WebDriver and Sikulli library for Flash games, used BDD approach with X-Ray.

Currently the task of our QA-Ops team (in which I am a Team Lead of 4 team members) is ensuring the quality of our casino platform during expansion from one American state to another and support of the testing environments.
Currently I am interested in such domains as Metaverse, Blockchain, Gambling
I enjoy a friendly environment, open-minded people, some jokes.
I prefer product companies more than outsourcing ones.
If the process of work is not yet organized, I would like to improve them, since my experience can be helpful in order to use some useful practices.
