Bio
Constantinos Pavlides
I worked with Raluca closely for over a year. Even though I was her direct manager, it never felt that way. She was more of a partner whose opinion was valuable to me. She was very independent, could produce top level work with minimum supervision and very quickly became very important part of the team. Her ideas and understanding of software testing are of a top level QA and would blindly trust her the most difficult and important tasks. She thrives under pressure and can pull of anything she sets her eye on. She has the character, mentality, intelligence and work ethics that everybody looks for.

I worked with Raluca for more than one year and I can say: she is the most professional QA engineer I have ever worked with. During the time we worked together, Raluca was the person I relayed on and learnt most from. I saw Raluca growing very fast, being very determined to learn more and more, being very committed to her worked, very passionate about her daily work, especially about automation. Raluca has strong analysis skills, providing valuable feedback during refinements and ensuring high testing coverage. I kindly recommend Raluca, any team would be lucky to have her!
