IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At UBS, I lead quality engineering and delivery assurance for global trading, wealth management, and regulatory platforms processing $50B+ in daily volume. I architected Selenium and Cucumber BDD frameworks integrated with GitLab and Azure DevOps, reducing regression time by 75% and supporting zero critical-defect releases across regulated programs.
Previously at BNP Paribas, JPMorgan Chase, Deloitte Consulting India, and Teckfusion Systems, I led functional, regression, integration, and non-functional testing for trade processing, FX, settlement, corporate actions, banking, compliance, and EAI platforms. My work includes resolving 150+ reconciliation discrepancies, automating regression validation, and building reusable automation libraries with 200+ scripts.
I bring 15+ years of experience aligning delivery, risk, and regulatory readiness with executive stakeholders. I also build and coach distributed QA teams, using AI/ML-driven quality analytics, KPI reporting, and risk-based governance to improve release confidence.
