Quality engineering lead driving test strategy, automation, and cost-saving quality improvements.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a seasoned quality engineering leader with a strong foundation in test strategy, automation, and cross-functional collaboration, holding a Master's in Computer Engineering. I have led multi-site QA teams and vendor partnerships to deliver seamless product experiences for consumer devices and apps.
At Meta and Amazon I developed and executed test plans, reduced test-suite size by 60% while preserving coverage, and implemented tools like Lab-as-a-Service and regression finders to boost QA efficiency and visibility. My initiatives saved substantial costs and improved release quality for AI companion apps, smart glasses, Fire TV devices, and large-scale software releases.
I prioritize scalable automation, data-driven test prioritization, and empowering offshore teams through clear guidelines and autonomy to accelerate delivery without sacrificing quality.
