About Me
I’m Temi Odey, a proficient Software QA Engineer with hands-on experience in manual, automation and API testing. I’m passionate about ensuring that every product delivers a seamless and trustworthy user experience.
My journey into QA is fueled by curiosity, problem-solving, and continuous learning. With a background in psychology, I bring a unique perspective to testing—understanding not just how systems work, but also how real users think, behave, and interact with software.This allows me to design test cases and scenarios that go beyond the obvious, uncovering issues that others might overlook.
🔹 What I Do Best
- ✔ Defect Detection & Root Cause Analysis – Skilled at identifying critical defects early and tracing them back to requirements or code, saving teams time and cost.
- ✔ Critical & Analytical Thinking – Imploring logic and psychology-driven observation to analyze user behavior, anticipate edge cases, and test beyond the obvious.
- ✔ End-to-End Test Coverage – Designing and executing manual/automated test cases that ensure functional, regression, performance, and usability coverage.
- ✔ Automation Excellence - Building scalable, maintainable automation frameworks (Selenium, TestNG, POM, Maven) with CI/CD integration (Jenkins, GitHub Actions).
- ✔ User-Centric Quality Assurance - Applying empathy and psychology background to test with the end-user in mind, ensuring intuitive and seamless experiences.
- ✔ Effective Communication & Collaboration - Bridging gaps between developers, product managers, and stakeholders with clear test reports and defect documentation.
- ✔ Process Improvement & Reliability – Advocating for QA best practices, implementing RTMs, and improving workflows that strengthen release confidence.
- ✔ Risk-Based Testing – Prioritizing testing efforts on high-impact areas to deliver maximum quality within project timelines.
- ✔ Adaptility & Continuous Learning - Quickly learning new tools, frameworks, and environments to align with evolving project needs.

MY QA HIGHLIGHTS
Here’s how my QA journey translates into real impact — fewer issues, stronger releases, and better user experiences.
Tested core workflows and uncovered critical usability gaps:
International users couldn’t register due to mobile number validation issues, OTP delivery consistently failed, and multi-trip searches allowed incomplete inputs—disrupting onboarding and booking journeys.
Actions Taken: Recommended international number support (E.164) with upfront country code selection, improved OTP reliability via SMS gateway verification and fallback options, and enforced mandatory field validation for multi-trip searches.
My Impact: Strengthened reliability in high-traffic areas - user sign-up/log-in and flight booking, reduced support calls from failed registrations, boosted user trust during onboarding, and increased confidence in production deployments.
Tested Admin and PIM modules, identifying key issues affecting reliability and business value:
User Search: Newly created users sometimes didn’t appear despite success confirmation, risking HR workflow inefficiencies.
Job Titles: Could not be assigned to employees, limiting role mapping, reporting accuracy, and strategic HR insights.
Demo Environment Reset: Data loss flagged as an environmental constraint, not a product defect.
Recommendations & Outcomes:
Execute tests in a stable environment to ensure consistent validation.
Retest Admin search post-deployment for reliable data retrieval.
Automate regression tests for efficiency and defect prevention.
The QA cycle achieved an 85% pass rate, while my findings prioritized workflow reliability, accurate role assignments, and data persistence — reducing support escalations and improving HR decision-making confidence.
Dear Future Employer,
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to a team where quality, innovation, and user experience truly matter. As a QA Engineer, I don’t just test software — I ensure that every feature released builds trust, reliability, and delight for end-users.
With experience in manual and automated testing, I’ve identified critical defects in projects like MakeMyTrip and OrangeHRM strengthening feature reliability and improving customer journeys. I bring a blend of technical expertise (Selenium, TestNG, CI/CD, GitHub, BrowserStack) and user-focused insight (backed by my psychology background) to uncover issues others might overlook.
What drives me is more than finding bugs — it’s about building confidence in the product, empowering development teams, and ensuring that organizations deliver experiences users can count on. My end-goal is to help your company ship high-quality software that not only meets business goals but also exceeds user expectations.
I look forward to the chance to bring this dedication, adaptability, and eye for detail to your team.
Sincerely,
⚡ A future member of your QA team
