Summary
Filza Mazahir is a QA and application support–focused software engineer with 11 years of experience, blending hands-on testing discipline with a solid engineering background. Based in California, she has transitioned from aerospace methods analysis and materials research to data science and QA, bringing a systems-thinking approach to software quality. Her recent personal QA project demonstrates practical expertise in designing and executing functional, edge, and negative test cases and simulating Jira-aligned bug workflows. Filza pairs analytical rigor—honed during fuel cell research and data science training—with clear defect reporting and tracking that accelerates resolution. She is comfortable working across disciplines, from supplier coordination and SAP-based work instructions to machine learning model evaluation. Notably, her work has produced measurable results in both lab research (record open-circuit potentials) and process-driven manufacturing and QA environments.
