What I'm looking for

I am seeking QA roles where I can lead testing efforts, expand automation coverage, mentor juniors, and contribute to product quality in collaborative, agile teams.

I am a detail-oriented QA Engineer with over three years of hands-on experience testing online and mobile applications, both manually and with automation. I focus on discovering issues early, improving test coverage, and delivering dependable software in agile teams.

At Ambition Guru I led testing for critical modules, developed and maintained automated test scripts using Appium, Playwright, and Cypress, and executed data validation with SQL to fix data integrity problems. I reduced manual effort through automation and improved quality metrics across releases.

I have experience supervising junior QA engineers and interns, performing root cause analysis for recurring performance issues, and collaborating with stakeholders to align features with business objectives. I have also tested payment gateways, real-time socket communication, and local-to-remote database synchronization for offline-first mobile functionality.

My technical toolkit includes Postman, Swagger, JMeter, Datagrip, Figma, Flutter DevTools, Burp Suite, MySQL, and MongoDB. I bring analytical thinking, leadership, and a continuous-improvement mindset to ensure features meet functionality, UI/UX, and security standards.
