What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters Agile methodologies and encourages continuous improvement, where I can leverage my QA leadership skills to drive quality and efficiency.

I am a Strategic QA Leader and Agile Delivery Specialist with over 10 years of experience in quality assurance and agile project management across various sectors including SaaS, healthcare, e-commerce, and finance. My journey has been marked by successfully leading end-to-end testing strategies and implementing Agile methodologies that ensure the timely delivery of high-quality software solutions. I excel in collaborating with cross-functional teams and optimizing QA processes, consistently achieving impactful results within tight deadlines.

Throughout my career, I have built and led QA teams from the ground up for mission-critical enterprise applications. My transition from QA to hybrid roles, including Scrum Master and Agile Business Analyst, has enabled me to drive Agile adoption across product teams effectively. I have a proven track record of reducing defect leakage and cycle time through effective Agile metrics tracking and root cause analysis. My commitment to continuous improvement is evident in the trainings and workshops I have conducted on Agile practices and quality metrics tracking.
