Nikola Tashkovski

“QA professional with ~7 years of experience working in Scrum teams, involved from requirements and user story creation through test strategy/planning, execution, defect triage in Jira, and verification. Highlighted catching multiple issues early on an AI-driven project to avoid production regressions and escalating a blocker where a frequently used UI was broken to get it fixed quickly. Has not shipped an AAA game title.”

“QA automation engineer with experience at Amazon Game Studios owning an end-to-end automated scale testing suite that simulates high-concurrency gameplay and captures performance telemetry. Improved coverage by bypassing hours of gameplay via programmatic state setup, enabling repeatable 4000-player dungeon-entry tests that exposed a messaging-queue bottleneck fixed before release. Also built maintainable Selenium/pytest UI automation with CI gating, reporting, and flake-reduction patterns.”
