Hi, my name is Yuri Teixeira. I was born and raised in Angola, a beautiful country located in Southern Africa. In 2016, I decided to move to Portugal, where I hoped to find exciting new opportunities and broaden my horizons.
In 2018, I started my first steps in QA Testing at uTest CrowdTesting Platform. This was a turning point in my career, as I discovered my passion for software testing and quality assurance. I was fascinated by the process of testing software and ensuring that it meets the highest standards of quality. I enjoyed working with a team of professionals who shared my passion for technology and innovation.
The following year, in 2019, I had the opportunity to join TesterWork, where I learned even more about the software development cycle. I was thrilled to be part of test cycles for some of the world’s most distinctive companies, including Thales, Microsoft, Instagram, Facebook, Beyond Identity, and many others. It was an incredible experience, and I felt proud to be part of such a talented team of professionals.
In addition to my work in software testing as a freelancer, I also took part in full-time jobs as a QA Engineer, mostly in the Finance sector. I enjoyed the challenge of working in a fast-paced environment and helping companies to achieve their highest quality standards.
I’m a crypto enthusiast, and I love to help DEX projects ensure the quality of their protocols. I believe that blockchain technology has the power to revolutionize the world.
Overall, I’m grateful for the opportunities that I’ve had in my career so far. I’ve learned a lot, met some incredible people, and discovered my true passion. And I’m excited to see where my journey will take me next.
