At 8am (formerly Affinipay), I built a test suite from the ground up for a FinTech payment platform, achieving 95% test coverage and reducing production bugs by 40%. I also execute sprint test cases and test APIs with Postman API and Swagger API.

At Productive Edge, I led a team of 4 QAs and reduced production defects by 20% through test case standardization, prioritization, and improved reporting. I led regression testing across 12+ sprint releases, maintaining a 99.5% pass rate across 500+ test cases.

At Melt Studio, I led a team of 8 QAs across 5 products and established the Software Testing Life Cycle from the ground up. I also tested web and mobile applications and worked with design teams on UI/UX reviews.
