Position: Manual QA Engineer
Category: QA
English level: upper
Years of experience: 1

My background experience includes more than 5 years in the aviation industry as a non-destructive testing engineer and more than a year in software testing as a Software Testing Engineer (Manual QA). It gave me such skills as accuracy and attention to detail, strong analytical and communication skills, tolerance to stressful situations, and being an active team player. I’m fast learning, attentive to details, and responsible. 

We have 2 manual testers on the project (me and my lead). We've helped our automation testers with clarifying some TC, tasks, or requirements; to define and clarify with the development team what is a real issue and what is just a lack of information from the corresponding epic task or SRS. Also, we communicate with developers and BA and share all info with auto-testers.

I often have to communicate with a development team and business analysts, and I am able to correctly formulate the questions, as well as then clearly answer and transfer this information to the automation team since we have only two manual testers on the project and we try to conduct all of the communication.

I always completed the tasks on time, the sprint spillovers may only be if a lot of bugs were found during the current sprint and they were not fixed in time.

I always try to understand different people with different points of view in order to understand how this situation may look from the outside and take further action.

For now, while our lead manual tester is on vacation I'm the only manual tester on our project and I am responsible for all manual tasks. Moreover, I've helped our automation testers with clarifying some TC, tasks, or requirements; to define and clarify with the development team what is a real issue and what is just a lack of information from the corresponding epic task or SRS.

It is not a problem for me to remain constructive and polite even during difficult conversations. I can always find a common solution through dialogue and good and polite communication, respecting opponents.
For now, I'm working as a Software Testing Engineer in a Healthcare domain using Confluence + Jira.
