What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior QA/Test Lead role in an Agile product or services firm where I can drive quality, mentor teams, expand automation coverage, and work on banking/finance domain projects.

I am a Senior Test Lead with over 17 years of experience in manual testing and foundational automation using Selenium and Cucumber, primarily in Commercial Banking, Wealth, Insurance and telecom domains. I have created test plans, test scenarios and test cases, executed test cycles, tracked defects to closure, and contributed to client-side delivery on loan origination and construction-lending products.

I hold ISTQB certification and a Master of Computer Science, and I bring strong interpersonal skills, a proactive learning mindset, and hands-on experience with tools such as JIRA, ALM, ReadyAPI/Postman, Maven, TestNG and SQL to drive quality in Agile projects.
