What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA/Test Analyst role in an Agile environment where I can own end-to-end testing, strengthen defect and test management in JIRA, and expand reliable manual + automated coverage (Selenium/Appium) that supports continuous delivery.

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.
