Summary
Stephanie Pare is a QA Engineer with a decade of hands-on experience hunting subtle, hard-to-reproduce bugs and turning them into clear, reproducible reports that help dev teams ship more reliable software. Fluent in French and English and comfortable with localization testing, she combines manual exploratory testing with automated skills learned in Java, Selenium, TestNG, Postman and CI workflows. Her background spans web development, linguistic testing, bookkeeping and frontline care roles—giving her a pragmatic, user-focused approach to quality and excellent cross-functional communication. Based in Portland, she has built QA frameworks for enterprise clients (including Daimler) and led regression efforts across web and mobile platforms. Outside work she brings improvisational thinking and endurance hobbies—rock climbing, rowing and bicycle touring—that feed her persistence and collaborative style.
