Amala Kuriakose

Manual software tester with 5 years of experience at Espina Software Solutions, specialising in defect detection and reporting. Proficient in analysing application functionalities, user experience, and performance to ensure alignment with business requirements. Knowledgeable in agile testing practices, including unit, integration, regression, and acceptance testing, as well as various testing frameworks like Waterfall and V-Model. Recognised for strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective communication with development teams. I used SQL to verify that the program was correctly performing save, update, delete, and retrieve operations on data, ensuring data consistency between the application and the database.

As an MSc Cyber Security student, I initially travelled to the UK. Due to financial problems, I could not pursue my studies and decided to join the care sector as an employee. During my stay there for five years, I learned how to communicate effectively, be a leader, be responsible and empathic, work with teams, and develop problem-solving abilities.
Despite having a good experience in the care sector, I do not abandon my dreams to work within the IT world. In fact, currently, I am taking a cybersecurity crash course to enhance my knowledge and build my career within the IT sector.
