About Me

Andreea

From QA Engineer to AI Developer

I'm a self-taught Prompt Engineer / AI Developer capable of handling most aspects of a software project from backend, frontend, UX design and infrastructure. My goal is to deliver valuable working software with peak efficiency.

With a background as a QA Engineer, I bring a comprehensive understanding of software quality across web and mobile platforms. Starting my career at OGOR, I discovered my passion for technology and evolved into a skilled QA professional, mastering functional, regression, UI, smoke, exploratory, and ad-hoc testing methodologies for both web and mobile platforms (Android & iOS).

Gaming utility that became a community resource

I got tired of watching 20-minute YouTube videos just to find one Valorant lineup. So I built a searchable database where players can filter by map, agent, ability, and site to find exactly what they need. Now it helps the whole Valorant community find lineups in seconds.

Hackathon MVP built under pressure

Built this entire energy grid dashboard in 12 hours during a hackathon - live maps, asset management, analytics, the works. I wanted to prove I could ship quality UI fast, and walked away with a fully functional TypeScript app that actually looks production-ready.

Gamifying reading habits through virtual companionship

Reading can feel lonely, so I created a virtual pet that grows as you read. Track your books, save favorite quotes, rate what you read - all while your little companion cheers you on. Added Google auth and multi-language support because good ideas deserve to reach everyone.

Meme Stash

Personal meme collection manager

We all have memes scattered across devices, chat apps, and cloud folders. I made this to finally organize them in one place - save, tag, and access your collection anywhere. Because life is too short to dig through 500 screenshots looking for that one perfect meme.
