Pragmatic tester,
quality-first

At OTP Bank I lead credit card testing within the squad and stepped into acting test manager responsibilities during a large-scale card system replacement — serving as the main point of contact between architects, product owners, business analysts, and testers.

Underneath the coordination, I stay hands-on: end-to-end, API, UI, and backend testing across complex systems. I think good testing should support release decisions, not just tick boxes.

Experience
OTP Bank
Software Tester | Acting Test Manager

At OTP Bank I work on a bank card back-office system replacement project, testing card lifecycle processes across multiple go-live phases, including issuance, activation, status changes, renewals, and replacements. I also took on coordination responsibilities: task allocation, execution tracking, and risk reporting. I kept communication going between architects, product owners, business analysts, and testers. On the technical side I work with API testing, PL/SQL data validation, JMeter load testing, and messaging system validation using RabbitMQ and Kafka.

Kinsta
Quality Assurance Associate

Worked on release testing for Kinsta's platform and the MyKinsta redesign. I covered regression, smoke, acceptance, and UI testing, including GraphQL checks in Apollo Studio. I also handled release-gate work, bug triage, and Docker-based test environments for the team.

Side projects

Built to learn,
tested to ship

Small web apps I built on the side to practice the full modern workflow — from design and deploy to the parts I care about most: writing tests, catching regressions, and shipping something I'd actually trust.

A Jamstack recipe vault for the family

Small Jamstack side project built on Eleventy, Netlify Functions, and the GitHub API. The add-recipe form commits new recipes as Markdown files directly to the repo, which triggers a rebuild. Used to practice deployment workflows, form handling, and shipping to production on a real CI/CD pipeline.
