NepalWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior Software QA Test Engineer with extensive experience in both manual and automation testing. Currently, I work at Cedar Gate Technologies, where I lead a team in quality assurance processes, including test planning, scenario preparation, and regression analysis. My role involves mentoring junior team members and conducting triage meetings to address client-reported issues effectively.
Before my current position, I served as a Senior Genetic Data Analyst, where I focused on the quality analysis of DNA sequencing data.
