Summary

Hello everyone, my name is Demian, and I want to confess to you that I'm a quality control specialist. I love what I do, I'm always meticulous about what I do, and I always do self-analysis after the work I do and improve my approaches to the tasks I set.
I have worked both as an ordinary team member and as the head of an entire QA department, developing testing strategies and plans. I am able to develop frameworks in different directions from scratch and constantly update my knowledge in this area. I'm always happy to take on new challenges and opportunities to bring value to the team.
So if you want to be confident in the quality of your projects, I'm always ready to help you with this))
