Position: Manual QA Engineer
Category: QA
English level: upper
Years of experience: 4


I`ve been working as a QA engineer for 4 years, almost 2 of which I`ve been occupying the role of a Team Lead. 

I`ve been fortunate to work on interesting American projects. Both were web based with some limited functionality moved to mobile applications (iOs, Android). 

The first project is related to music management and promotion. It impressed me with its creative design and high mission. For me as a tester, the most challenging task was functional testing of a site builder, which has a bunch of customized settings and features. While working there, I got expierence in:
 - manual testing (functional and change-related)
 - creating test documentation (check-lists, test-cases, bug-reports)
 - collaborating with development and business teams
 - working under Scrum methodology.
Tools I got acquainted with: Jira, Confluence, TestRail, GitLab, Browserstack, Figma.
After six months, my initiative and focus on progress were noticed, and I was offered the role of a QA Lead in one of scrum-teams.

The second project is a ERP system, cloud-based field service management software. It attracted me by its complexity, tricky interrelations and lots of integrations with external systems. Every new feature was a challenge, but I can confidently say that I, along with my QA team, managed to achieve high quality of released parts. 
I`ve been involved in this project for 3 years, and during the last eighteen months I`ve been combining two positions of a QA engineer and a Team Lead. People, I was working with, highlighted strong sense of ownership as my main professional quality.
I`ve gained expierence in:
 - system integration testing
 - mobile testing
 - testing via API
 - working with international team
 - participation in grooming, planning and retrospective meetings
 - taking part in decision-making
 - working with support team and reviewing requests from customers
 - setting up the testing processes
 - hiring new personnel and mentoring
Tools I got acquainted with: Jira, Zephyr, Postman, MySQL, Browserstack.

Currently I`m seeking a project, where I can be a valuable addition to the existing team and which can give me an oppurtunity to boost my testing skills.
