01. About

I'm a JavaScript developer with hands-on experience across front-end web development, automation, integrations, and QA testing. I've built everything from SEO-optimized websites to backend integrations and internal tools that run entire workflows.

These days I focus on automated test coverage — building and maintaining a Playwright test suite that combines end-to-end UI flows with API-level test-state seeding that keeps fast-moving products reliable.

04. Projects

Automated E2E + API Test Suite

Problem
Manual QA couldn't keep pace with a fast-moving SaaS platform, and existing automated tests were flaky enough that failures were routinely ignored or re-run rather than trusted.
Approach
Built a Playwright test suite combining full end-to-end UI flows with API-level test-state seeding, then diagnosed root causes of recurring flakiness instead of masking it with retries.
Outcome
Faster, more reliable test runs and restored trust in automated results — cutting manual re-verification effort.
  • TypeScript
  • Playwright

Cross-Departmental Automation & Integrations

Problem
Cross-departmental workflows relied on manual, repetitive work that didn't scale as the company grew.
Approach
Designed and built automation scripts, third-party API integrations, and internal web applications, then documented SOPs so the team could adopt them independently.
Outcome
Reduced manual operational overhead and standardized how automation was used across teams.
  • JavaScript
  • REST APIs

Website Platform & SEO Tooling

Problem
Internal website templates needed stronger design and SEO fundamentals, and the platform needed broader third-party capabilities.
Approach
Led the implementation team as the technical expert on the websites product, improving templates and integrating third-party tools.
Outcome
Expanded platform capabilities and raised the baseline quality of every site built on the templates.
  • HTML/CSS/JS
  • SEO
