Position: Automation QA Engineer (Python)
Category: QA Automation
English level: upper
Years of experience: 10

During 10+ years of experience, I have built many testing systems/environments from scratch (Python, Linux), tons of test cases automated and integrated into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, TeamCity, Azure DevOps), and many utility tools and libraries developed.
I started in 2010 as a Python AQA (never worked as a manual tester). I use pytest as a primary tool, preferring but not limited to Linux, embedded, and hardware testing. Having a scientific background, I use to write Python code since version 2.

I have experience with testing a wide range of systems - embedded devices, automotive solutions, mobile apps, web services APIs.

Preferrable direction: hardware, SDET, development.
I would like to minimize/avoid manual testing as much as possible.
