Software that’s tested.Releases that hold.
I’m a test automation specialist. I set up test strategies, automated suites and CI/CD pipelines that make every release predictable, backed by 16+ years in networking and security.

Test automation, end to end
This is my main focus. I start the test automation effort, set the strategy and coach the team, then build suites that run on every deployment: from the browser down to the API, the database and the pipeline. These are the tools and techniques I use.
UI & end-to-end
- Playwright
- Cypress
- Selenium WebDriver
- WebdriverIO
- Puppeteer
- Appium
- Visual regression
- Accessibility testing (axe)
- Cross-browser testing
API & integration
- REST
- GraphQL
- gRPC
- WebSockets
- Postman & Newman
- SuperTest
- REST Assured
- Karate
- OpenAPI / Swagger
- JSON Schema validation
- Contract testing (Pact)
- Mocking (WireMock, MSW)
- Auth testing (OAuth 2.0, JWT)
Performance & security
- k6
- JMeter
- Gatling
- Locust
- OWASP ZAP
- Burp Suite
- OWASP Top 10
- SAST & DAST in pipelines
- Dependency scanning
Frameworks & languages
- TypeScript
- JavaScript
- Node.js
- Python

- Mocha
- pytest
- Robot Framework
- Cucumber & Gherkin
CI/CD & environments
- GitHub Actions
- GitLab CI
- Jenkins
- Azure DevOps
- Docker
- Kubernetes
- Testcontainers
- Parallel test runs
- Allure reporting
Approach
- Test strategy
- Risk-based testing
- Shift-left testing
- Page Object Model
- Test data management
- Flaky test reduction
- AI-assisted test generation

Bug hunt
Eight tests are failing. Squash every bug to turn the pipeline green, and try to beat your best time.
Co-founder, network architect & developer at Anuutech
Building ProtectMyMail
Private, verified email in the inbox you already use. Anuutech’s first app, live in beta.
- A browser plugin that encrypts mail before it leaves your screen, with AES-256-GCM and X25519 key exchange
- Cryptographic sender verification, so spoofed and altered mail is flagged before you act on it
- Works with Gmail, Outlook and any IMAP inbox on Chrome, Firefox and Edge

-
Co-founder, network architect & developernowAnuutech, building ProtectMyMail
- Co-founded Anuutech and work as network architect and developer on its first app, ProtectMyMail.
- ProtectMyMail is a browser plugin for Chrome, Firefox and Edge that adds end-to-end encryption and cryptographic sender verification to Gmail, Outlook and any IMAP inbox.
- Encryption happens in the browser (AES-256-GCM with X25519 key exchange), and encrypted content is split across several servers so no single provider can read it.
- A gateway bridges to ordinary email with SPF, DKIM and DMARC, so protected mail still reaches regular inboxes.
