Certified QA/Test Analyst improving software reliability through end-to-end manual and automated testing.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Certified Software Test Analyst who brings end-to-end testing ownership across multiple development methodologies and platforms, including Agile Scrum/Kanban and the V-Model. I plan, execute, and manage testing through System Testing, In-Sprint Testing, Exploratory testing, SIT, UAT, and Regression Testing—always aligned to SDLC and business objectives.
In my current role as a Test Analyst, I implement end-to-end Testing across the full testing lifecycle, collaborating with business stakeholders to align testing activities with business goals. I lead test planning and deliverables, resource allocation, and traceability, and I’ve driven measurable improvements such as reducing production defects by 20% (and by 35% through continuous delivery alignment) while improving test case management and defect management in JIRA.
I’m experienced in both manual and automation testing, with hands-on Selenium and Appium work for web and mobile validation. I set up test environments and data, maintain defect management workflows with daily/weekly reporting, and focus on producing release-stable outcomes—supporting zero critical defects after deployment and improving defect resolution time by 15% through detailed tracking and prioritization.
