Vibe Coding

Full-Stack Builder

Beyond testing — I build complete applications end-to-end. Frontend interfaces, backend services, DevOps pipelines. The best QA engineers don't just find bugs — they understand the entire system because they've built one themselves.

🎨

Frontend Development

React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS — Building responsive, performant UIs with modern frameworks and component-driven architecture.

⚙️

Backend Engineering

Java Spring Boot, Node.js, REST APIs — Designing scalable backend services, microservices architecture, and database integrations.

🔄

DevOps & CI/CD

Azure DevOps, Jenkins, Docker, Git — Orchestrating automated pipelines that build, test, and deploy with zero friction.

🤖

AI-Augmented Development

GitHub Copilot, AI test generation, self-healing scripts — Using AI to 10x productivity and maintain test accuracy despite app changes.
