About Me

With nearly a decade of experience as a Software Development Engineer in Test, I've grown from building automation frameworks into designing complete, production-ready systems. My background in web, mobile, and end-to-end testing formed a strong foundation in reliability and engineering discipline — and over the past few years, I've expanded that into full-stack development, backend architecture, and cloud deployments.

I now specialize in building secure backend services in Go, full-stack applications with React and Next.js, and fully automated CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and GitLab. I've implemented authentication systems with JWT and refresh tokens, designed REST APIs, and deployed containerized applications to DigitalOcean droplets with Nginx, Docker, and automated workflows.

On the testing side, I've led automation efforts using Kotlin, Java, JavaScript, Cucumber, Appium, and Playwright, delivering stable and scalable BDD/TDD frameworks for both mobile and web. My CI/CD work has supported teams across iOS and Android platforms, significantly reducing manual testing effort and increasing deployment confidence.

What drives me is continuous growth. I learn aggressively, adopt new technologies quickly, and love turning ideas into real, working products — whether it's a backend microservice, a full-stack feature, or an automation pipeline. I enjoy solving complex engineering problems, improving developer workflows, and building systems that are both robust and user-focused.

Outside of engineering, I recharge by spending time outdoors — hiking, exploring quiet places, and clearing my mind. These moments help me stay focused, creative, and ready to build the next thing.
