Специализация: Junior Manual QA
I’m a Manual QA Tester with hands-on experience testing web applications and AI-powered platforms, focused on finding real issues that affect users — not just ticking checkboxes. I help teams release stable, user-friendly products by combining structured test design with exploratory testing and clear, actionable bug reports. 🔍 What I do best: Manual testing of web applications (functional, regression, smoke, exploratory) Testing AI-driven features (response accuracy, relevance, UX consistency) Writing clear test cases, checklists, and test scenarios Creating high-quality bug reports with steps, expected vs actual results Working with Agile / Scrum teams 🛠 Tools & Skills: Bug tracking & test management: Jira, Redmine, Bugzilla, Mantis, TestRail, TestLink Test design techniques: equivalence classes, boundary values, decision tables Exploratory testing (including Whittaker’s tours) Browser DevTools (HTML inspection, client-side issues) Basic SQL for data checks Pairwise testing (PICT) 💼 Experience highlights: QA Manual Tester for a US-based life coaching platform with AI features – Tested training modules and AI-user interactions – Validated AI responses for correctness and user value – Reported bugs and UX issues improving overall product quality Trained in a structured QA program with real bug-finding experience on live products 🌍 Why clients like working with me: I’m detail-oriented, but always think from the user’s perspective I communicate clearly — no vague bug reports I’m reliable, organized, and easy to work with Background in IT recruitment helps me understand product and team needs If you need a manual tester who actually cares about your product quality, I’d be happy to help 🚀
