What I'm looking for

I seek a quality-focused role where I can lead testing efforts, expand automation and AI-testing practices, collaborate cross-functionally, and deliver reliable products.

I am a self-motivated QA Engineer with 5+ years of experience in software testing and quality assurance within Global Delivery teams. I focus on delivering high-quality web, Android, and iOS products through thorough test planning and execution.

My background includes requirement gathering, test case design, post-deployment planning, and client-facing communication with Product Owners. I have hands-on experience verifying APIs with Postman and executing automated tests using Selenium, plus familiarity with TestNG and Maven.

I have worked with both Scrum and Waterfall methodologies and have practical exposure to AI-testing, prompt engineering, and AI models. I am skilled at prioritizing tasks under pressure and contributing as both a strong team player and a team lead on group projects.

Key tools I regularly use include JIRA, Postman, Selenium WebDriver, Charles Proxy, Swagger, MySQL tools, and IDEs like Eclipse and VS Code. I hold a BS in Software Engineering and have progressed from Junior QA Engineer roles to Principal SQA Engineer.
