What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role that allows me to leverage my testing expertise and contribute to innovative projects in a collaborative environment.

I am a seasoned Sr. Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience in Application Support and both Manual and Automation testing. My expertise lies in planning, developing, and coordinating testing programs across various domains, including E-Commerce, Financial, and Healthcare. I have a strong analytical background and am proficient in using a variety of testing tools such as UFT and Selenium, which I have applied in multiple projects to ensure high-quality software delivery.

Throughout my career, I have successfully developed test strategies, created comprehensive test plans, and executed both functional and non-functional testing. My experience includes working in Agile environments, where I have actively participated in Scrum ceremonies and collaborated closely with cross-functional teams to gather requirements and provide product support. I take pride in my ability to adapt to new technologies and methodologies, which has consistently contributed to the success of the projects I have been involved in.
