What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA/Test role where I can lead end-to-end test strategy in Agile teams, strengthen traceability with tools like JIRA/ALM, and expand automation using Selenium/Cucumber while delivering high-quality releases.

I’m a Software Test Engineer with over 4+ years of experience in software testing, requirement analysis, and quality execution. I focus on understanding business logic early, then translating it into clear test conditions, scenarios, and cases that drive reliable delivery.

In my roles across automotive and insurance projects, I’ve owned test planning and execution, including Functional Testing, Regression Testing, Black Box Testing, and MC/DC and coverage testing. I also build traceability by documenting test artifacts and defect reporting, and I perform coverage checks with justification through Coverage Band Analysis (CBA) when needed.

When projects required deeper validation, I worked with requirement sources like IBM Rational DOORS and prepared artifacts for automation workflows using Rapitwo. I’ve also executed protocol-based validation (CAN protocol, UDS) and strengthened integration confidence through API testing and database-focused testing.

Most importantly, I support delivery through leadership and Agile collaboration. As a QA Lead Analyst, I managed onshore/offshore QA efforts, defined test strategy aligned with business needs and regulatory compliance, oversaw SIT/UAT/E2E cycles, tracked defect lifecycles in JIRA/ALM tools, and presented test metrics and release readiness updates to stakeholders.
