I lead global QA portfolios, improving release quality through governance, risk-based testing, and delivery optimization.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At Ubisoft India, I own end-to-end delivery for a QA/QC portfolio across five global studios, leading a division of 75+ professionals. I align QA strategy with engineering, production, and executive stakeholders while managing delivery, capacity, quality, risk, and dependencies.
I introduced KPI dashboards and steering committee reporting to provide real-time visibility into program health, quality performance, risks, and capacity. Through workflow optimization, resource reallocation, and continuous improvement, I drove an approximately 30% reduction in defect turnaround time.
Before leading Ubisoft's portfolio, I managed concurrent QA projects, schedules, budgets, change control, RAID tracking, and release readiness. My experience also includes leading quality teams at Basecamp Startups and delivering functional, regression, system, and game-release testing at Samsung Research Institute and Electronic Arts.
I'm focused on building scalable QA teams and stronger delivery practices through risk-based testing, Lean and Six Sigma methods, automation strategy, and Gen-AI testing adoption. I've improved team delivery performance by 42% through coaching, talent development, and process optimization.
