I'm a detail-oriented QA Manual Engineer with extensive experience in ensuring software quality across web and mobile platforms. Starting my career in agriculture, I discovered my passion for technology and quality assurance, leading me to transition into the tech industry.

Throughout my journey at Field Data Zoom SRL, I've evolved from a Junior Agricultural Engineer to a skilled QA professional. I specialize in functional, regression, UI, smoke, exploratory, and ad-hoc testing for both web and mobile platforms (Android & iOS).

My unique background in agriculture combined with technical expertise gives me a comprehensive understanding of GIS features validation, including geospatial data formats (KML, KMZ, SHP, XML), boundary testing, and real-time map interactions. I'm passionate about maintaining high-quality standards and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional user experiences.

Beyond testing, I leverage AI-augmented development with tools like Claude and Cursor to rapidly architect and build full-stack applications. I design system architectures from scratch and guide AI assistants to implement my vision, enabling me to deliver production-ready projects in record time - like my 12-hour hackathon build at VibeHack Bucharest.

"Quality is not an act, it is a habit" - This philosophy drives my approach to every testing scenario and development project, ensuring thorough coverage and reliable software delivery.
