About Maria Kozlova

I\'ve spent the last 10+ years inside the full QA lifecycle — from writing the first test script to building the strategy, the team, and the culture around quality.What I care about now: making testing smarter, not just bigger.That means using AI agents to eliminate bottlenecks, building automation frameworks that actually scale, and helping leadership teams understand quality as a business lever — not just a checkbox before release.What I bring to the table:→ Built and led QA teams across startups and enterprise orgs→ Designed AI-powered testing workflows and LLM-assisted QA pipelines→ Delivered 40–50% reduction in manual testing effort through automation-first strategies→ Reduced CI/CD cycle time by 15%, contributing to faster, safer releases→ Helped drive a 40% sales increase by ensuring flawless UX across new product featuresI work at the intersection of quality engineering, AI tooling, and team leadership, and I believe the future of QA is less about finding bugs and more about preventing them by design.If you\'re building a quality culture or rethinking your testing strategy, let\'s talk. m••••••••@gmail.com
