I am a tester from India who moved to Germany. Testing gives me the scope to play Sherlock with the software – observing and finding anomalies in the most unexpected of places, while I get to blend my childhood fascination with Technology and detectives.Throughout the span of my career of 10 years as a tester in Software industry, I have worked in multinational companies, as well as in startups.
Nataliia Burmei
Senior Test Engineer
I am Nataliia, a Test Engineer who loves travelling, books, learning new languages and sometimes writes on the side. I also love to discover how things work and why they work the way they do. I am a curious person.
I have been in testing world for a very long time. I am a self taught engineer who never stops learning. I have worked on many projects and with different people, I truly love building things from scratch, but also keen for a good refactor challenge. I always loved working with backend part of applications, I like to be at the core of the application.
Testing and work is only one part of my life. Another big part of it is my family, travelling, friends, books and theatre. I love spending my energy while running outdoors and a good cup of morning coffee makes me very happy.
