What I'm looking for

I’m looking for challenging assignments across the industry, where I can lead QA in Agile teams—improving test coverage, reducing defect leakage, and ensuring high-quality delivery through continuous process improvement.

I’m a results-driven QA Lead with 9+ years of experience in Manual and Automation Testing within Agile environments. I lead QA activities end-to-end—test planning, defect management, API testing, regression/functional testing, and UAT coordination—across Banking, Financial Services, and E-commerce.

I’ve worked as a Test Lead for Persistent Systems and as a Software Test Engineer for Wipro Technologies, consistently collaborating with cross-functional teams and driving continuous improvement in testing practices. In my mATM engagement, I designed comprehensive test strategies for a React Native (Mobile) banking app, improved defect detection through early involvement, mentored team members, and reduced defect leakage while enhancing sprint delivery predictability.
