Ani Pahlevanyan

Profile

ISTQB Certified QA Engineer dedicated to the quality of web and mobile products — manual and exploratory testing, API testing with Postman and performance testing with JMeter. I design and execute test cases, scenarios and checklists, manage the defect lifecycle rigorously, and collaborate closely with developers, product managers and designers across Agile teams. My quality discipline was shaped by nine years in medicine as an M.D. neonatologist and a JCI quality-control assistant in a hospital NICU — an environment where precision, protocol adherence and patient safety are non-negotiable. I bring that same standard to software, with particular strength in healthcare and medical-software QA.
