Dan V · QA Engineer
Hi 👋 I'm best described as a functional software tester fond of exploratory testing, who is working with web or mobile apps.
Graduated as a medical engineer and right after I started my professional journey with healthcare and clinical software projects as a tester and consultant even before a pandemic underlined how important e-health really is.
In my spare time I like to read, cycle and try as much as I can to stay up to date with the fast paced tech world and e-health.
Based in Bucharest, Romania, aged 30 - he/him.
Graduated 
Polytechnic University of Bucharest in 2016 with a BSc in Medical Engineering.
Started at 
Softeh Plus (2016-2017) as software consultant with implementation, business analysis, training and technical support responsibilities for hospital and medical laboratory management software.
Continued at 
Oracle (2018-2020) as a validation consultant with software testing responsibilities for FDA and HIPAA compliant clinical trials software.
My next position was at 
One Beyond (2020-2022) as a QA Engineer for bespoke web apps for clients of all sizes and from a multitude of industries.
Currently working at 
Rinf Tech (2022-pres.), an outsourcing company, where I'm assigned as a contractor for long-term client projects. My first project was for 
Google as a Test Engineer for some parts of the 
Fitbit mobile apps, and now I'm assigned as a Test Consultant for the Microsoft Dynamics 365 solutions developed by 
Itineris for the utilities industry.
I'm 
ISTQB certified for multiple levels, comfortable with SQL, Agile friendly, Waterfall Model accustomed too, and using Azure DevOps to organize my stuff through queries and test cases.
Mostly self-taught in the technology area, because I enjoy finding out how things work. Due to the increasing volume of information available, it all comes down to asking better questions.
I use 
Fedora and Windows as daily drivers. I have experience as a home user with Debian and Arch based distros as well. Whenever I can, I try to develop professional Linux skills too.
Sometimes I use 
Digital Ocean droplets to test new apps in the cloud, mainly due to their simplicity of deploying and very good tutorials, thus I'm very much not afraid of complicated set-ups and never ending technical instructions.
In the past years my interest over static websites grew a lot, and when I'm publishing one, my CDN of choice is 
Netlify due to its flawless integration with GitHub repos and 
surge.sh for fast publishing.
