Naeem Akram

I am a quality-focused Software Test Engineer with 15+ years of hands-on experience in test automation, manual testing and CI/CD pipeline integration. I build maintainable test frameworks and drive high test coverage in Agile teams.

At Netwrix I achieved 100% end-to-end smoke test coverage for a core product, implemented Azure DevOps pipelines for automated execution and reporting, and performed performance/load testing of DSPM integrated with EntraID and SharePoint Online. I also prototyped Playwright automation using Node.js and C# and used Datadog and Azure Insights for log analysis.

Previously I led a test automation team to deliver a Java-based framework with a 99% defect detection rate and created performance scripts that produced a 3× application speed improvement. I automated C# test suites that reduced verification time by 4× and automated testing across 40+ business-critical applications to realize a 70% reduction in testing headcount.

I work collaboratively in cross-functional Agile teams, emphasize clear documentation and risk reporting, and continually refine CI/CD and test strategies. I am eager to relocate to Finland and contribute my automation, performance testing and pipeline expertise to safety-critical or infrastructure-focused organizations.
