Julia A.
Software QA & Junior Dev - Python, Linux, Git
I'm a QA tester and self-taught developers with 130+ hours on Upwork, and a 5.0 rating. and I'm honestly obsessed with finding the broken thing before users do. I came into tech from a science background (BSc, Biology). Sounds like a detour, until you realize what lab work actually trains: methodical testing, documenting exactly what happened, and never trusting a result until it's reproducible. That is QA. What I bring to a contract: 1. Manual & exploratory QA. I hunt edge cases, write clear reproducible bug reports, and verify fixes properly. 2. Python scripting & automation (IBM certified) - small tools, data tasks, test scripts. 3. Comfortable in the terminal - Linux commands, shell scripting, Git & GitHub version control. 4. Multilingual QA / localization testing - native Hebrew & Russian, fluent English, so I can test and verify across languages most testers can't touch. 5. I'm also actively learning - building a Kotlin app from scratch and working through hands-on security labs on TryHackMe (Linux, networking, security fundamentals). Clients have tagged me reliable, detail Oriented, collaborative, and a clear communicator and I'd rather over-communicate and get it right than go quiet and hope. If you want someone sharp on details and hungry to grow with your project, message me.
