Experience
Biggest American Fintech Startup
The application has a complicated microservice architecture with two main subprojects (borrower and investor) and at least 10 back-end sub-projects. My role was the test automation engineer in a dedicated investor team (20 engineers). I took part in developing the commercial test framework. As a part of the team, I implemented tests for web, API, and database domains.
Biggest Sporty Social Network (Part of Well-known Sportswear Manufacturer)
I have worked on two sub-projects—web and mobile versions of fitness activity, calories, and food trackers. My role was test automation engineer on the Belarusian team (eight engineers). I performed automation tasks for web and Android versions of the application.
“Shop” Unit of Well-known Sportswear Manufacturer
The project is a group of shops for B2B (application working with sports clubs and teams) and B2C (application for additional customization of branded apparel) business domains. My role was the test automation team lead in the Belarusian team (four engineers). We accomplished testing of microservices (web, API, and database) and testing of the mobile web on real Android and iOS devices and also on emulators. Infrastructure maintenance and CI administration was my personal responsibility.
Data Center Software Provider
A microservice-based data center software with millions of "agents" installed on metal devices and a number of endpoints for these agents to communicate with. My responsibility was API testing of the HTTP REST protocol for agents groups and policies.
