“Software/automation QA professional with hands-on Oculus VR testing at Telkom, covering controller inputs, tracking reliability, performance/FPS stability, thermal behavior, crash reproduction, and system-level events (standby/resume, low battery, network interruptions, guardian changes). Familiar with the intent and coverage areas of console certification frameworks (Sony TRC/Microsoft XR/Nintendo LOTcheck) and uses AI to speed up log analysis and test case creation.”

“Game QA tester with hands-on experience testing console titles delivered via the GameQoo cloud gaming platform, emphasizing network performance and device/screen-size UX impacts. Prioritizes issues strategically across STB and browser platforms based on user usage and cross-platform severity, and uses AI to accelerate test case and documentation workflows.”

“QA automation engineer (Tencent experience) who extended Android Monkey testing to dramatically increase activity coverage (~300%) and cut runtime from 8 hours to ~1 hour per app. Strong in Cypress/JS test architecture and CI/CD gating (GitLab + Kubernetes parallel runs), and has a track record of reproducing and documenting high-impact reliability issues (e.g., silent failures in a cloud-native mobile automation platform under network loss).”

“Software engineer with a pragmatic, production-oriented approach to AI-driven development, using AI to accelerate coding while keeping human oversight on correctness, architecture, and final decisions. Has hands-on experience with agent-style AI workflows and has led the design and coordination of AI-agent systems with a strong emphasis on reliability, performance, and end-to-end execution.”

“Full-stack engineer who has shipped and operated generative-AI chat/QA features end-to-end, including a RAG-based pipeline with guardrails and cost/latency monitoring in production. Experienced with React/TypeScript + Node/Postgres architectures, Dockerized deployments to AWS (EC2) via GitHub Actions CI/CD, and building reliable ingestion/ETL systems with idempotency, backfills, and reconciliation.”

“Game QA professional with AAA open-world shipping experience, owning high-impact quality risks like save-data corruption, progression blockers, performance drops, and multiplayer desync. Demonstrates strong systems thinking and exploit prevention (e.g., reproduced and helped fix a reward-duplication race condition using network interruption + rapid input), with disciplined JIRA/TestRail workflows and evidence-driven bug reporting.”

Senior QA Automation Engineer specializing in end-to-end test automation for FinTech and automotive platforms

Los Angeles, CA9y exp

“QA Engineer with 8 years owning end-to-end quality on high-traffic, live fintech and automotive platforms (Fuse Autotech), specializing in critical financial and e-signing workflows. Combines API testing (Postman), log observability (Kibana/Logz.io), and disciplined Jira/Xray processes to accelerate triage and shorten release cycles (1 week to 3 days) while reducing production issues and integration/regression defects with measurable impact.”

“Self-taught frontend developer with React/TypeScript project experience and strong QA background. Contributed as a QA tester on a Skunkworks web app by refining large story tickets, defining happy-path/edge test cases, and setting sprint metrics; also improved a legacy PHP web app by modularizing SFTP bulk upload code and enhancing page navigation.”

“Built and productionized an LLM-powered customer support system using a RAG architecture with structured document ingestion, embedding retrieval, and prompt templates for product-specific grounding.
