@abhilashhariharan
I lead quality assurance, automation, UAT, and business analysis for complex enterprise platforms.
What I'm looking for
I've delivered software quality and testing programs for DXC Technologies, Etisalat Telecommunications, Emirates Airlines, Accenture, Mindtree, and Celstream Technologies across aviation, telecommunications, insurance, product testing, and network testing.
At DXC, I implemented an automation-first regression strategy using Playwright that reached approximately 80% coverage and reduced execution time from five days to eight hours. I also test Oracle E-Business Suite finance, inventory, order management, and accounts payable modules, along with custom GenAI agents.
I've led UAT with business users, developed test strategies and plans, estimated testing effort, coordinated global teams, and mentored new team members. My work spans functional, system, integration, web, mobile, API, and TCP/IP protocol testing.
I've worked as a Test Manager, Test Lead, Scrum Master, Senior Test Engineer, and Business Analyst, balancing hands-on delivery with team leadership. I focus on helping teams mitigate quality risks and launch products successfully.
