What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA/Test Lead role where I can own UI/API and cloud testing end-to-end, automate critical flows, and drive process improvements with cross-functional teams—turning defect insights into faster, higher-quality releases.

👋 Hey there! I'm Archana Devi - a curious, quality-obsessed, and cloud-savvy Manual Tester with 5.4+ years of rich experience in functional, UI, and API testing.

🛠️ From clicking through UIs to diving deep into defect root causes, I've helped ship bug-free software for Amazon Workspaces, Thin Clients, and non-persistent desktops, all while juggling tools like Postman, Jira, TestRail, and cloud services (hello, AWS!).

💬 I thrive in cross-functional teams, love a good sprint retrospective, and enjoy simplifying complexity for stakeholders. Whether it's automating login flows with Selenium or setting up entire test environments on EC2 & AppStream, I'm your go-to person for clean, cloud-ready testing.

🌍 Bonus: I speak Tamil (native), English (pro), and a sprinkle of German (beginner) - so communication is always part of my test plan!

📌 Let's connect if you're passionate about delivering quality at scale, cloud-first testing, or just want to nerd out over Python scripts and bug reports.
