      9 Dear Hiring Manager,
     10 
     11 I'm applying for the Quality Assurance Engineer position at Flash AI. I've spent the last three
     12 years as a Software Quality Analyst, writing and maintaining manual and exploratory test cases,
     13 documenting defects with clear reproduction steps, and following issues through to resolution.
     14 
     15 In my current role at Leggett & Platt, I test web, mobile, and hardware-adjacent systems, tracking
     16 defects in Azure DevOps with severity classification and root cause context, the same discipline
     17 the role calls for with Jira. I test APIs with Postman as part of functional verification, and I
     18 contribute to automation using Python, Bash, and PowerShell. I'm comfortable in containerized
     19 environments through regular use of Docker, FreeBSD jails, and LXC in my own infrastructure
     20 projects. I also use Claude Code daily in my own projects as a core part of how I script,
     21 troubleshoot, and document, which lines up with the comfort with agentic development tools the
     22 posting calls out. At work I use Microsoft Copilot as part of my regular toolset.
     23 
     24 I have early-stage, hands-on experience with pytest and am actively building that skill further. I
     25 haven't worked with Playwright, Selenium, or Cypress specifically, but I bring a proven ability to
     26 learn new tools quickly, three years of disciplined testing practice, and a genuine curiosity about
     27 how complex systems behave under real conditions, which the posting says matters as much as
     28 mastery of any one framework.
     29 
     30 I'd welcome the chance to talk about how my background fits the role. Thank you for your time and
     31 consideration.
     32 
     33 Sincerely,\
     34 Chris Roberts
