What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own QA quality and support Agile delivery—facilitating Scrum ceremonies, managing defects with RCA, and collaborating cross-functionally to ensure predictable, high-quality releases.

I’m a results-driven QA Engineer with 5+ years of experience delivering end-to-end quality assurance in manual testing and Agile execution across multiple domains, including Food Delivery, Survey Platforms, Sports Applications, and AWS-based platforms. I design and execute test plans and test cases from user stories and business requirements, performing functional, regression, exploratory, integration, and end-to-end testing for web and mobile applications.

As a Scrum Master, I facilitate Agile ceremonies (Sprint Planning, Daily Stand-ups, Reviews, Retrospectives) and remove blockers to enable timely, predictable releases. I manage the defect lifecycle (logging, triage, prioritization, RCA), collaborate with Product Owners on backlog refinement, and drive continuous improvement through Agile metrics like velocity and burndown charts.
