Profile

Senior QA Engineer with 15 years of hands-on functional testing: I turn business requirements into test plans, find the defects that matter and give project teams a clear, evidence-based Go/No-Go. Autonomous and a true team player, at ease with business owners, Business Analysts and developers alike.

I cover the whole software-quality chain, from requirements analysis to Go/No-Go: reading user stories and specifications, test strategy and plan, test case design and coverage matrices, execution of functional and regression campaigns, defect management and reporting. At BRED Banque Populaire, I designed the test cases and acceptance handbooks in Xray / Jira for the IT acceptance testing of a new P2P e-invoicing tool, and checked with SQL the migration of data from the legacy database to the new one. At Accor (iOS / Android apps deployed in 100+ countries), Oodrive, Visiodent and Vinci Construction, I ran this chain end to end, using ISTQB techniques and multi-team campaigns in Jira / Xray. Autonomous and collaborative, rigorous and close to the business: I know what to test, where the risks are and how to report them clearly.
