What I'm looking for

I seek senior QA roles where I can lead automation, performance and DevOps-integrated testing, mentor teams, and improve release quality within Agile organizations.

I am a Lead QA consultant with 20+ years of hands-on experience in manual and automated testing, performance engineering, and CI/CD integration. I design and scale automation frameworks, establish test strategies, and embed QA into Agile and DevOps workflows to deliver enterprise releases on time.

I have led onshore/offshore teams, mentored testers, and partnered with leadership to meet aggressive release schedules while maintaining quality. My technical toolkit includes Playwright, Selenium, JMeter, LoadRunner, BrowserStack, SauceLabs, and API testing tools, combined with cloud-based QA and DevOps pipelines.

I drive cross-functional collaboration and continuous improvement by introducing non-functional testing into sprints, automating deployments and test environments, and delivering executive reporting and risk analysis that increase release confidence.
