I specialize in full-cycle manual testing, including functional, regression, exploratory, smoke, integration, cross-browser, cross-platform, and API testing. I have tested systems built on more than 12 interdependent microservices and more than 40 API endpoints. I have strong experience testing REST and gRPC APIs with Postman and Swagger, including environment configuration and pre-request and post-request JavaScript scripting. I also validate backend data using PostgreSQL and DBeaver and analyze application logs with Kibana. My mobile testing experience covers iOS and Android devices, emulators, Android Studio, Xcode, and ADB. I use Charles Proxy and Proxyman for network traffic analysis, response rewriting, throttling, and offline scenario validation. I work effectively in Agile environments, including Scrum and Kanban, and collaborate closely with developers, product managers, and DevOps teams. I contribute to requirements analysis, test planning, defect investigation, sprint activities, and release validation. I am focused on identifying risks early, producing clear defect reports, and helping teams deliver reliable and user-friendly products at scale. ## Skills 24 capabilities[Agile](https://jobicy.com/talent/agile.md)[API Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/api-testing.md)[Backend Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/backend-testing.md)[Cross Browser Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/cross-browser-testing.md)[Exploratory testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/exploratory-testing.md)[Functional Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/functional-testing.md)[gRPC](https://jobicy.com/talent/grpc.md)[Integration Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/integration-testing.md)[IOS Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/ios-testing.md)[JavaScript](https://jobicy.com/talent/javascript.md)[Kafka](https://jobicy.com/talent/kafka.md)[Kanban](https://jobicy.com/talent/kanban.md)[Log Analysis](https://jobicy.com/talent/log-analysis.md)[Manual Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/manual-testing.md)[Microservices Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/microservices-testing.md)[Mobile Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/mobile-testing.md)[Performance Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/performance-testing.md)[Python](https://jobicy.com/talent/python.md)[Regression Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/regression-testing.md)[REST](https://jobicy.com/talent/rest.md)[Scrum](https://jobicy.com/talent/scrum.md)[Smoke Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/smoke-testing.md)[Test Planning](https://jobicy.com/talent/test-planning.md)[Usability Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/usability-testing.md) ## Tech stack & tools Working toolkit ### Application Utilities [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/postman/postman-original.svg) Postman](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=postman.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/swagger/swagger-original.svg) Swagger](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=swagger.md) ### Collaboration [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/confluence/confluence-original.svg) Confluence](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=confluence.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/jira/jira-original.svg) Jira](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=jira.md) ### Data Stores [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/dbeaver/dbeaver-original.svg) DBeaver](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=dbeaver.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/mysql/mysql-original.svg) MySQL](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=mysql.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/postgresql/postgresql-original.svg) PostgreSQL](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=postgresql.md) ### Design [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/figma/figma-original.svg) Figma](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=figma.md) ### Development [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/docker/docker-original.svg) Docker](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=docker.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/gitlab/gitlab-original.svg) GitLab](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=gitlab.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/kibana/kibana-original.svg) Kibana](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=kibana.md) ### Languages & Frameworks [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/grpc/grpc-original.svg) gRPC](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=grpc.md) ### Mobile [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/xcode/xcode-original.svg) Xcode](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=xcode.md) ## Experience Career history ### Software QA Engineer · NUUM May 2024 – Jun 2026Performed full-cycle manual testing across web, Android, iOS, real devices, emulators, and backend microservices for a universal UGC streaming platform.
