I’m a Senior QA Engineer and Test Lead with 9.8+ years of experience in Manual and Automation Testing within Life Sciences and Pharma domains. I lead end-to-end testing cycles in Agile environments, focusing on regression automation, functional testing, and reliable data validation.

As a Test Lead at Sanofi – Veeva Vault, I lead end-to-end QA activities for the Veeva Vault platform by defining test strategy, coordinating sprint planning, and enforcing release quality governance. I mentor QA engineers, manage defect triage, and ensure strong coverage across functional, regression, and integration testing.

Previously at Smith & Nephew – Prime Cloud, I owned the complete QA lifecycle—from planning and execution to reporting. I led defect triage with traceability for releases and improved regression cycle efficiency through automation.

I also bring hands-on testing depth across Veeva platforms, including GSK and Haleon roles where I validated migrated data, built Selenium automation scripts, and executed regression suites. I’m currently expanding my skills in AI-driven testing, LLM fundamentals, and intelligent test automation.
