What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to quality-focused teams where I can lead test strategy, strengthen automation, improve banking product reliability, and continue learning and growing.

At Barclays, I lead testing for complex, high-priority banking product releases, creating test plans and strategies while mentoring test teams through demanding deadlines.

I've overseen component, system, regression, and production acceptance testing, and partnered with developers and product owners on feature functionality. I also led improvements including automated customer onboarding data processing through UAT and a production reconciliation framework.

Previously at HSBC and Cognizant, I created Tosca automation scripts, prepared product test scenarios and data, managed daily scrums, and tracked defects. My work spans core banking, lending, payments, Temenos T24, ALS, mainframe, API, Salesforce, mobile, and service virtualization testing.
