What I'm looking for

I seek a senior QA role where I can lead testing efforts, drive automation and quality strategy, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and mentor engineers in a fast-paced, growth-oriented company.

I am a Senior Software Test Engineer and Test Team Lead with ISTQB Foundation and ISTQB Agile certifications, backed by a BSc in Electronics and Communication Engineering and a professional QA diploma from ITI. I specialize in designing and executing comprehensive UI and API test cases, automation scripting, and tracking quality metrics to ensure high-quality releases.

Over several years I have delivered testing across payments, telecom, embedded systems and web platforms at companies including Fawry (FIS), Coral Technology, Santechture and Vodafone outsourcing teams. I lead testing efforts from early refinement to final delivery, drive estimations and resource utilization, and actively triage defects with product and development teams.

I'm committed to staying current with testing tools and strategies, building robust automation frameworks (Cucumber, RestAssured, JMeter, Selenium), and mentoring teams to support fast-paced delivery while improving defect detection and regression coverage.
