What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own end-to-end QA, strengthen defect prevention, and lead release readiness in Agile teams—so web, mobile, and eligibility systems ship reliably and on time.

I’m a QA Analyst/Engineer with 10+ years of experience testing complex web, mobile, and eligibility systems across the SDLC in Agile and Waterfall environments. I design and execute comprehensive test strategies that improve quality by catching defects early and supporting defect prevention.

I’ve coordinated enterprise release activities end-to-end, including release readiness reviews, milestone tracking, and clear stakeholder updates for scope, risks, and go/no-go decisions. I also enforce standards through auditing and test asset traceability to strengthen cross-domain configuration integration.

My hands-on work blends manual testing with automation and API verification, using tools like ALM, Jira, Zephyr, SoapUI, Appium, UiPath, and Selenium. I’ve supported Integrated Eligibility workflows (Medicaid, SNAP, TANF), Salesforce sandbox management, and SQL-based data validation (Oracle, Teradata), bringing disciplined quality to production-ready delivery.
