What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation in quality assurance, emphasizes data-driven decision-making, and offers opportunities for leadership and mentorship.

I am a Senior Quality Assurance Engineer with nine years of extensive experience in software testing, complemented by an MTech in Data Science & Engineering from BITS Pilani. My career has been dedicated to merging traditional QA methodologies with advanced data science techniques to enhance software quality and efficiency. I have successfully implemented data-driven testing strategies that have significantly reduced test execution times while maintaining high defect detection rates.

Throughout my career, I have developed predictive quality models using machine learning algorithms to forecast defect density and identify high-risk areas in code. My role at Emirates Group has allowed me to lead cross-functional teams in establishing intelligent testing frameworks and real-time quality dashboards, providing stakeholders with actionable insights. I am passionate about mentoring others in the field, sharing my knowledge of data science applications in quality assurance, and continuously striving to innovate and improve testing processes.
