Integrates smoke/regression suites into CI/CD (GitLab/Jenkins/GitHub Actions) with reporting and notifications, and has prevented production issues by catching silent backend failures and high-impact payment defects through end-to-end validation and strong root-cause evidence.”

“QA professional from enterprise SaaS/cloud environments (Exeter; previously Boeing programs) with strong UI and end-to-end workflow testing experience. Known for rigorous defect investigation and validation across UI/API/DB layers (including SQL checks) and disciplined tooling/workflow in Jira/Azure DevOps/ALM Octane; has QA lead experience supporting release readiness and go/no-go decisions. No professional game studio/AAA shipping experience yet, but experience maps to complex, high-pressure release cycles.”

“Distributed-systems engineer applying robotics-style patterns to software: built "Vibecheck," a high-throughput real-time video + OS-telemetry fusion and analysis system (500+ MB/session) with strict latency constraints. Strong in containerization and CI/CD (Docker, GitHub Actions) and in designing fault-tolerant, event-driven architectures (Kafka/RabbitMQ), plus hands-on debugging of multi-agent coordination using blackboard + watchdog/circuit-breaker control patterns.”
