QA hands-on:  - TC design - code review (xUnit, cypress, vite) - end-2-end test automation/ POCs (test reporting, parallel execution, migrations etc.) - performance testing (jmeter, k6, lighthouse) QA lead:  - establishing and driving shift-left practices (TDD, pair programming, encouraging developers to participate in test automation and educating them on the matter) - Agile practices:  * kickstarted the scrum-master role within the team as a role with a cerain scope of duties * process maturity (https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/software-engineering-capability-maturity-model-cmm/) growth from level 0 to level 3 - People management:  * 360 feedback once in 6 months * personal development planning, coordination, assistance Delivery management:  - risk assessment  - stakeholders management (Product managers)  - release backlog liquidated (15 releases in 6 months) - agile ceremonies establishment (scrum master role, retros, cross-team demos) - teams and team members empowerment, conflict resolution - operations: support processes alignment with delivery train, telemetry and logging implementation - DORA metrics QAOps: - automated the component and integration tests (xUnit) run report directly to xRay (Azure pipelines) - driving the per-feature (aka preview) environment deployments as a replacement for static staging/UAT Other: - adopting AI (ChatGPT 4.0): component tests parametrization; defining TCs - designed customer-driven contract testing solutions's architecture

Client's domain: financial services (investment) Responsibilities: - implementing and supporting the multi-module testing framework (language: Java 8; major technologies: Selenium, SOAP/REST communication and respective Java libraries, Cucumber, AspectJ); - supporting projects in a meaning of starting to use the framework; - implementing project-specific testing prototypes/frameworks from scratch (Java 8; Selenium, SOAP/REST automation mainly); - R&D activities (Octane API adapter; Jira automated reporting / tickets closing tool etc.)

PRM system (Salesforce based): - previously written manual TCs automation (Java, Selenium); - code refactoring and reviewing (BitBucket); - CI (Jenkins) monitoring and tests supporting (requirements-TCs relevance tracking). Dental service's informational system (highly loaded): - implementing new tests (Java (core part) + Groovy tests; preconditions : Spring - SQL mappings); - CI (TeamCity) monitoring and tests supporting (~300-400 tests); - code reviewing (Mercurial); - Scrum-based process participation (daily catch-ups, weekly, monthly and retrospection meetings participation) and improvement (management consulting); Access control of multiple related software systems (REST services based): - R&D activities (Python-based (urllib2 lib for token getting; requests lib for requesting services, response parsing, result comparison etc.) REST services testing written system from scratch ); - existent tests support (Dredd framework), CD assistance (Docker); - communication with client and requirements formalizing (FA/Test analyst); - tests execution, bug-reporting; - metrics collecting and analysis (as the only one QA on the project).
