Adaptable to your domain

Same QA discipline, different operational contexts

The tooling is the same: Playwright, K6, ZAP, Lighthouse. The vocabulary, failure modes, and risk surface adapt to your field.

Defense / Embedded

GCS interfaces, mission-critical UIs, real-time telemetry, latency SLAs. Built and tested a full drone command stack: 291 E2E tests across 4 operational profiles.

Real-time UILatency SLAsE2E / multi-agent

Fintech / Trading

Order flow reliability, API contract testing, P95 latency budgets, concurrent VU load. Failures here cost money: no flakiness tolerated.

API contractsLoad testingK6 VU ramp-up

HealthTech / MedTech

Data integrity, accessibility compliance (WCAG AA), regulatory-grade test traceability. Every test run is documented and reproducible.

WCAG AAData integrityAudit trails

SaaS B2B

Auth flows, billing edge cases, role-permission matrices, multi-tenant isolation. The complex paths nobody tests until they break in production.

Auth / RBACBilling testsMulti-tenant

E-commerce

Cart and checkout flows, payment gateway testing, performance budgets under peak load. Lighthouse gates in CI to block regressions before they ship.

Industrial IoT

Sensor data pipelines, protocol simulation, edge-device communication testing. End-to-end: from device event to dashboard assertion.

What you get

Three capabilities, one engagement

I cover the full QA spectrum: from zero-to-CI automation to security hardening and performance observability.

TEST AUTOMATION

  • Playwright E2E: Chromium, WebKit, mobile Safari
  • Multi-project CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions)
  • Flaky-test diagnosis and systematic fix
  • API contract testing: no browser, pure HTTP
  • Test history, pass-rate trend, browser matrix

SECURITY & COMPLIANCE

  • OWASP ZAP automated scans integrated in CI
  • Content-Security-Policy design and audit
  • HTTP security headers review (HSTS, X-Frame)
  • OWASP Top 10 coverage mapping
  • Remediation plan with severity triage

PERF & ACCESSIBILITY

  • K6 load testing: configurable VU ramp-up
  • P95 / RPS / fail-rate dashboards
  • Lighthouse audits in CI (perf, a11y, SEO, BP)
  • WCAG AA accessibility audit and remediation
  • Budget gates: block deploys on regression
Typical missions

Scoped, priced, deliverable

Most engagements fit one of these four patterns. If yours doesn't, we'll scope it together.

Bootstrap QA from zero

No tests, no CI quality gate, no idea where to start. I set up the full stack: Playwright suite, GitHub Actions workflow, pass-rate badge, and hand you the runbook.

2 – 4 weeks600 – 800€ / day

Fix flaky test suite + speed up CI

Tests that fail randomly destroy engineering trust. I audit the suite, eliminate non-determinism, parallelize where possible, and cut your CI time.

1 – 2 weeks600 – 800€ / day

Security audit + remediation plan

OWASP ZAP scan, CSP and headers review, OWASP Top 10 coverage check. You receive a prioritized report and a step-by-step remediation plan.

QA observability dashboard like mine

A full engineering dashboard: live test results, Lighthouse audits, K6 load metrics, ZAP score, browser matrix. Deployed, CI-connected, ready on day one.

How I work

Async-first, fully remote

Communication

  • Async-first: no daily standups
  • Written status update every working day
  • Teams · Linear · GitHub · Email · LinkedIn

Logistics

  • Timezone: France (UTC+1 / UTC+2 CEST)
  • Languages: English · Français
  • Fully remote: no onsite travel
  • NDA available (mutual)
Honest about scope

What I am not

Knowing what a contractor won't do is as useful as knowing what they will. No surprises mid-engagement.

Not a full development team

  • I test software: I don't build features or own product roadmaps
  • For greenfield projects needing a full-stack dev: wrong profile
  • For "someone to handle everything": wrong profile

Not a body shop

  • I don't take engagements just because the budget fits
  • I decline when scope is unclear or timeline is unrealistic
  • Short qualification form first: we both save time

Not on-site

  • Fully remote: no travel, no office presence required
  • Day rate already factors this in: lower overhead, same output
  • Timezone: France (UTC+1 / UTC+2 CEST), async-first

Not equity, not deferred

  • Cash only: fixed price or day rate, invoiced on delivery
  • No equity, no revenue share, no deferred compensation
  • Payment terms agreed upfront in the SOW

FAQ

Common questions

Why async?+

Async communication produces clearer specs, better-documented decisions, and zero time wasted on status calls. You get a written update every day: more signal, less noise.

Can you sign NDAs?+

Yes. A mutual NDA is available on request before any scoping call.

Do you take equity?+

No. Cash only. Fixed price or day rate.

Available for full-time?+

Not currently. Freelance missions only: this keeps me sharp across multiple stacks and gives you senior-level expertise without a full-time hire.

Do you travel onsite?+

No. Fully remote. This is reflected in the pricing.
