PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

OCT 2025 - PRESENT
Kyiv / Hybrid QA Automation Engineer | Zultys
Developed and maintained Python, pytest, and Appium automation for Android and iOS across a production unified-communications
platform and multi-application E2E workflows.
Created five multi-application E2E tests and expanded coverage with smoke, unit, dependency-boundary, adapter-contract, and
fake-based tests.
Stabilized 35 mobile regression suites, increasing the approximate execution pass rate from 30% to 90% and reducing flaky failures by an
estimated 30-40%.
Refactored element access, gestures, device commands, sessions, and locator handling behind protocols, adapters, and dependency
injection; introduced typed framework exceptions.
Established CI/CD execution for mobile automation from the ground up, reviewed pull requests, analyzed pipeline results, and diagnosed
device, driver, network, and environment failures.
TECH: Python, pytest, Appium, Android, iOS, UiAutomator2, XCUITest, ADB, CI/CD, Git, Jira

JUN 2025 - SEP 2025
Remote / Fixed-term QA Automation Engineer | SoftServe (Customer: Adyton PBC)
Developed Python automation for Android, iOS, and web workflows using Appium, Selenium WebDriver, and pytest.
Implemented REST API checks and Flask-based service mocks to simulate backend integrations and enable deterministic E2E testing.
Dockerized suites and integrated them into GitLab CI/CD; parallel Android and iOS execution reduced regression duration by more than
30%.
Built Python utilities for logs, test data, environment setup, and repetitive QA workflows; investigated cross-platform failures with
Flutter and backend engineers.
TECH: Python, pytest, Appium, Selenium, Flask, REST API, GitLab CI/CD, Docker, Postman, Allure, SQL

APR 2024 - MAY 2025
Kyiv / Remote QA Automation Engineer | Luxoft (Customer: Ormco)
Developed Python and pytest automation for Selenium WebDriver UI scenarios and REST API workflows in Ormco Spark Aligner
applications.
Implemented approximately two to three E2E tests per week during nine months of active project delivery after the onboarding phase.
Built modular, data-driven components and API-backed test-data generators to improve repeatability and suite maintainability.
Integrated regression coverage into CI/CD and investigated failures using application logs, screenshots, API responses, SQL data, and
environment diagnostics.
Validated locale-dependent behavior across regional configurations and documented, verified, and tracked defects through Jira
workflows with developers.
TECH: Python, pytest, Selenium WebDriver, REST API, Docker, SQL, Gherkin, Jira
