About — Yerevan, Armenia

01Story

  1. 01

    Who I am

    QA engineer with nearly three years testing enterprise platforms through EPAM Systems. I'm also in my fourth year of a BSc in Applied Statistics and Data Science at Yerevan State University, which is where most of my current curiosity about data and machine learning actually comes from.

  2. 02

    What I build

    Professionally: automation frameworks and API test coverage — Page Object Model UI regression suites, REST Assured and Cucumber-based validation, CI-integrated pipelines. Independently: full products end to end — a dual-mode AI/manual trip planner, two independent football media platforms with their own auth and rights-compliance layers, and a churn-prediction pipeline built as a sequence of tested, gated milestones rather than a single prototype.

  3. 03

    What I care about

    Correctness that's actually verified, not assumed. I come from testing, so I default to distrust — of a model's probability output, of a UI that 'looks right,' of any feature nobody wrote a regression test for. I'd rather ship something smaller that's actually true than something impressive that quietly isn't.

  4. 04

    Currently exploring

    Data science and applied ML — the degree feeds directly into how I think about testing now: less 'does this look right' and more 'can I prove this is calibrated, unbiased and reproducible.' My diploma project and the Customer Intelligence Platform are where that's showing up most directly right now.

02Education

2010 – 2020

N51 School after V. Petrosyan

Yerevan · Grades 1–9 · English-emphasis instruction — Nine years of general schooling in Yerevan, with an English-emphasis instructional track, before moving to a specialized math and physics school for the final years before university.

2020 – 2023

PhysMath School

Yerevan · 3 years — A specialized mathematics and physics school in Yerevan, known for strong olympiad results and — by some international 'best schools' style rankings circulating around 2022/2023 — cited among top-ranked schools globally, though that specific claim isn't something I can independently verify. What I can say directly: it's where the analytical foundation for everything I do now in statistics and data science was built.

2023 – Present

BSc, Applied Statistics and Data Science (4th year)

Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics. A degree spanning statistics, probability theory, programming, data science, machine learning, deep learning, algorithms and databases — the academic counterpart to the QA and engineering work on the professional side. Diploma project: in progress.
