What I'm looking for

I seek QA roles where I can expand automation skills, work in Agile teams, contribute to API and wireless testing, and drive product quality and faster release cycles.

I am a detail-oriented QA Engineer with 1.5+ years of hands-on experience in manual and automation testing within the wireless domain. I have executed comprehensive test suites, automated regression and smoke tests using frameworks like pyATS, and conducted API testing with Postman to improve product reliability and accelerate release cycles.

I have a track record of identifying and reporting high-impact bugs, delivering clear test reports to stakeholders, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to maintain high defect-closure rates. I hold a BE in Electrical and have demonstrated leadership through student-organization roles and technical awards, bringing disciplined testing practices and a continuous-improvement mindset to every project.
