I had a lot of interesting tasks, such as automated testing of firmware of our devices or different complex features, related to audio-video functionality.

Here I was also responsible for timely preparation of test plans for automation purposes.

QA Engineer

I was a part of a big and geographically distributed team. This is my first job with English as a working language.

Here I also started as the only QA specialist, but later an intern joined our team. I trained him, and he successfully passed the probationary period and became a junior specialist.

QA Engineer

It was my first job as a QA engineer. This company had an educational program for new specialists, and I learned a lot about the theory and practice of testing.
At my project I updated old test cases and added many new ones, in fact I created a completely new test plan on the old basis. This test plan was highly rated by others and has been reused as an example for other projects.
I was the only tester at this project and managed all the testing processes myself. A few months after starting work, I also started helping out with another project as an extra activity.

Main technologies and skills: test design, manual testing, postman, jenkins, Windows mmc, virtual machines, network protocols.
