Senior Quality Assurance Analyst specializing in web and API automation, Cypress, and CI-driven testing quality improvements.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Quality Assurance Analyst with over Five(5) years of experience in software testing, covering all SDLC phases from Requirement analysis to Development and Testing. I specialize in black box testing (Functional, Regression, Integration, and System testing) and in building robust automation using Cypress for both web and API, including Page Object Model and data/keyword-driven approaches.
In my current role, I orchestrated the development of 50+ web automation test cases, cutting manual testing time by 40% and increasing testing accuracy by 25%, while driving a 50% reduction in bug leakage to production through thorough reviews and root cause analysis. I run smoke regression after every build and full automation for every release, integrate the framework with Jenkins for scheduling, and support performance testing with Jmeter—while ensuring clear reporting and management visibility. Previously as a QA Lead and Senior QA Engineer, I created and executed 100% test cases, led defect raising and tracking, collaborated closely with developers, and supported release stability across web and mobile banking applications.
