Content Manager (2021)

In this position, I was responsible for filling the site with content. In the process, I communicated with the developer, used various editors, etc.
I'm interested in software testing and see myself in this role in the future, but it is impossible to become a good tester without understanding how this kitchen works, so I'm considering other related position as customer support or technical writer, etc.
